Default Plans for the year ahead?
Old 01-01-2008, 08:52 AM   #1 (permalink)

I don't call them resolutions! those just don't stick with me! LOL! AND the only reason I pick this time of year to make plans is because Jan, Feb and March are the slowest time for us as far as business and family go, so it's a good time to focus on making new habits!

I am very goal oriented, so I plan to use my monthly planner more again! It really does go a long way to keeping me better organised! and being better organised in all aspects of my life is my biggest goal right now! When I am organised, I spend less money, eat better and am just plain less frazzled all the time!

Does anyone else have any plans / resolutions / goals for 2008 they would like to share?

My list is basically the same as last year!


Get the boys to help out more around the house.


Keeping the house tidier


I lost 22 pounds while pregnant. I would like to keep that off and add some more to it!


I want to plant a bigger garden with more fruits like berries in it.


I want to leave my paypal money ALONE and save it for when we really need it.


Get my craft room all set up and keep it tidy


Focus on my crafts more as a job rather than a hobby.

I don't make resolutions either. I can never seem to keep them.

This year I plan to get moved into the new house in about 1 week. I plan on keeping things tidier and get my craft supplies organized. I would like to accept myself for me. I'm overweight, but the meds I'm on just don't seem to let me lose any weight so I will be happy for who I am. I am basically healthy except for the arthritis, so I will focus on that. I need to start getting more organized and stay that way. I also need to make a budget and stick to it.

I never seem to keep resoultions made on New Year's. Or any other time for that matter.

I do want to get my craft room decluttered. Too much stuff. All my books are also in there. And a computer and desk.

Plan on retiring.

Oh Slide!! Thanks for getting this started this year!!!!

For me some of the things I want to work on this year is better eatting habits and we have always done well here, but need to stay out of the treats we tend to give ourselves!!

Getting more organised!!

I think once this is achieved the rest fall into place

Grant and I are working on our changes together which helps me a lot!!!

Happy new year all and good luck with your plans!!

Hugs
P

I've been working on the decluttering, so I'll continue that.

Stick to the weight lose challenge

Spend more real time, less t.v. time, with my family.

Best of luck to everyone. Focus,focus, focus. Together we'll do it right.

Laura

I need to cut out all the treats too. It is my own fault I am the one buying everything or baking every weekend. Also I want to start doing my wall hanging quilts I have the fabric but have never started one of them. Also need to crochet something besides doilies all the time. They are so addictive.

My goal is to take a family vacation next month. We never have much saved to go.
This year I got my back pay and managed to save over 1/2 of what we need. I also have to get my workshop straightened up and organized. See how much product I have so I
can decide when to set up at the Flea Market.
That's about it for me.:cool:
