The start of a new year feels like a fresh start in many ways—time to recommit to better ways of living, to being intentional about how we live our life rather than just letting things happen. I sat down and made a list of some of my goals for the coming year.
Spiritual:
*Read/study the Bible more. I was terribly lax about this in 2010.
*Do family devotions with the kids.
Marriage:
*Plan a getaway weekend for just the two of us.
Family:
*Have more family game nights
Personal:
*Work on my 40 by 40 list (more on this later)
Financial:
*Save more. One way I'm doing this is by setting aside the amount of money I save by using coupons at the grocery store. I'll save up this money to use towards adding more healthy eating options, like gardening supplies and money for the Farmer's Market.
Health and fitness:
*Lose 24 pounds. A mere two pounds per month seems like an attainable goal if I--
Exercise regularly, a minimum of three times per week
Eat less sweets (my downfall!)
Eat more whole foods
Cleaning/organization:
*I do a pretty good job keeping up with daily tasks like laundry and dishes, but with four kids in a small house it's easily overrun by toys and other clutter. I printed out a cleaning task calendar from Just Mommies to give me specific daily and monthly cleaning jobs to do.
