Hope everyone had a safe & fun New Year's Eve. Rick & I were both in bed by 11:30. I was kind of awake at midnight listening to all the fireworks going off in the neighborhood. Today has been a very lazy day. Lots of stuff to do around the house as usual but just haven't felt up to much today. I was looking at my New Years post from last year (click here). Looking over my goals & contemplating what to work on this year...
my 2011 goals
*I am going to continue my efforts to learn to sew & keep my desk area organized. have gotten better at sewing simple things such as the texture blankets I had been making. I think my desk area will be a continual challenge!
*We have a list of 5 more bills that must be paid off this year (minimum! the more the better!). COMPLETE!
*If we are not pregnant by this summer then we plan to begin the adoption process. Possibly IVF but probably not. COMPLETE!
*I want to make 2 new meals per month (healthier organic meals). hope to enlist my sister Amanda & friend Bridgette in some long distance meal planning so we can try out new recipes.
*continue my efforts to be more consistent at going to they gym I would say Complete as I did work out more often while I was not restricted due to IVF. Ran my first 5k in September!
*finish bathroom remodel at the lake COMPLETE!
*make time for a small vacation/trip with my husband. we go to the lake or various places alone but don't travel to many new places together. He would love to visit New Orleans but I don't think that will be in our 2011 budget
*think of a new blog name. after a year-and-a-half we are definitely not newlyweds anymore!! COMPLETE!

Okay so not bad I suppose, met 5 out of 8 goals. So here are some goals for the upcoming year......
1. Continue to learn about sewing. I would like to make some simple camera strap covers & camera cases this year.
2. Again try to make more healthy organic new recipes.
3. Complete second bathroom remodel at lake house.
4. Would love to paint kitchen & get new counter top & backsplash (if we can fit that in our budget with paying off bills & buying needed baby items)
5. Work with Rick on getting in better shape. He wants to run another 5k for sure. I would love to do another one if possible after the baby comes.
