Resolutions

OK. So, normally I am not big on setting New Year's resolutions but I have been convicted in so many ways this past year that I really felt now would be the time to right down some goals that I am working on and need to work on. We also have our third baby on the way and I am in desperate need to get organized!

~ Wake before my children, get showered and dressed

~ Eat healthy foods, not so much processed or things with added sugars

~ To schedule a time once a month to get out alone

~ Schedule a time to get out once a month alone with Stew

~ Plan dates with my eldest daughter Emily twice a month

~ Plan at least one activity to do with my children once a week

~ Go to the library with the kids once a month

~ Read a new book every month

~ Practice the flute and piano at least once a week

~ Take the kids outside three times a week

~ Commit to Thursday prayer at our church

~ Take care of my hands/nails

~ Wash my make up off every night (I have a bad habit of going to bed with it still on and I don't think it's doing anything good for my face)

~ File paperwork once a month

~ Sort each room once a month (keep, sell, giveaway)

~ Keep up with my hair appointments every 6-8 weeks (I've had a bad habit of not taking the time fore myself and letting my hair slide)

~ Go shopping twice a month, even if it's just to browse

~ Update photos and send them to the grandmas on the 30th of every month

~ Update birthdays and purchase cards for the whole year and send them out on time

~ Put a reminder on our calendar two weeks before each holiday so that I will remember to send out cards/gifts to relatives

~ Read through the old testament

~ Exercise three times a week

~ Switch to Welch's juice and only allow the children to have once glass a day

~ Manage e-mails only at nap time or first thing in the morning

~ Memorize scripture with the girls

~ Schedule time to work on my projects once a week
