Goals for 2011

Every year I say my resolution is to lose weight. Well that never happens! This year I'm going to make goals for myself and family. Hopefully I can accomplish at least half of them and I'll be happy with that. There's no pressure this way.

Home Goals:
   1. Sew slipcovers for the chairs in the living room.

There's two of these



I'm loving this fabric for the maroon chairs



??? Not sure on fabric

   2. Try to introduce a lighter color in the living room (a blue).

Drapes maybe

   3. Change out the drapes/curtains in the living/dining/kitchen.
   4. Maybe just maybe sew WHITE slipcovers for the sofas.
   5. Put up hooks in living/kids/bathroom(s).
   6. Rug in the little big boys room.

As you can see the rug in there is not the right size

   7. Window treatment for the little big boys room.
   8. Different curtain rod in the teenagers room (the one in there is     wimpy).

   9. Decorate the pre-teens room (his room has nothing going on).

There isn't much I can say for this room

 10. Make a picture wall.

Family Goals:
   1. Plant a family garden.
   2. Make sure we have movie night (if not weekly then every other week).
    3. Spend more quality time with the kids (my days of staying home are     coming to an end ).
   4. Have more patience and love for my family.

Personal Goals:
  1. Become more active (try to make it my normal).
  2. Sew more (this is for my state of mind).
  3. Complete the Love Dare.
  4. Go to church regularly.
  5. Be more friendly/outgoing.
  6.Try not to be so obsessed with the cleanliness of my home     and focus on the littles being littles.
  7. Decide what I want to be when I grow up (more on this later).
  8. Get dressed 6 out of 7 days a week (been known to stay in pj's more     days than I should).
  9. Make a routine and stick to it!!!
10. Work on blog.

Financial Goals:
  1. Pay off some debt.
  2. Cut up and don't use credit cards (easy for me not so easy for the     HMIC).
  3. Pay the truck off in a year.
  4. Buy house???

Well there you have it! THANKS to the Nester I now have goals for this year. I better get going and get out of my pj's NOW.
