I usually make a list (either mental or physical) of certain goals I want to work on during the year. Last year, I wrote down a list. I considered blogging it, but I decided it was too personal. After all, exposing my goals for improvement is like telling everyone where I feel the weak spots are in my life. This year, I started out by looking at last year’s goals I wrote down. While I did make some progress in areas, it all could still use a little work. So, I decided that I would stick with that list with just a few minor tweaks, and I’d post it on my blog so I might feel a bit more accountable. So here’s the big reveal:
(They are in no particular order, but I decided to number them.)
- Read scriptures regularly.
- Have family home evening regularly.
- Read more books.
- Do crafty projects that benefit our family. (I usually end up giving away so many things that I make, and projects for myself, my kids, or my home get put on the backburner. Ideally, I’d like to try to do one project a month, but that could be too ambitious.)
- Do crafts or learning activities with Eleanor.
- Family archiving or genealogy. (woohoo! blogging counts for personal history!)
- Keep the house clean and organized.
- Try new recipes.
- Use time wisely.
- Exercise.
- Go to bed early.
- Be pleasant and patient as often as possible.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to go catch up on last year’s laundry ;)
Love it! hehehe I always feel dumb making resolutions and feel it's just a way to let myself down, but I like those! They're attainable!
ReplyDeleteBeing organized is a challenge for me. It's on my list every year. All good goals- by the way FHE gets easier to have regularly when your kids get old enough to realize its Monday and they want to know what we are doing and what we are having for a treat. :)
