Happy New Year!

I know this isn’t earth shattering, but for the most part, I want to keep doing what we are doing, with just a little tweaking!

I used these FREE downloadable pages to help me organize my goals this year.

My 6 sections are:

• Spirituality
• Marriage
• Self
• Parenting
• House
• Blog

Spirituality

I would like to add a morning Bible reading/study.  I usually do this right before I go to bed, but I’d like to start my day with it as well.  I am hoping this will give me the kick in the pants that I need to get out of bed earlier!

Marriage

Speak my husband’s love language and hug him for a least a minute everyday.  We used to do this earlier in our marriage and have gotten away from it, I’d like to get it back!

I’d also like to have 2-3 weekends where we spend time together without the kids.

I am going to try and “plan” at least one date night a month, even if it’s watching a movie after the kids go to bed.

Self

I am going to try and make myself a priority, try to “find” myself since I’ve been feeling so lost lately.

I am going to have a once a month home spa evening.

I am going to try and workout at least 3 times per week.

I am going to make sure I take time to read everyday.

I am thinking of writing up a book proposal and I need to renew my teaching license this year.

Parenting

I want to make reading to my kids a higher priority.  I want to read at least one chapter book a month to them and start a 

I am going to try and not yell as much.

We will continue with our chore training.

I will also be scheduling “dates” with the kids to make sure they get done more frequently.

I want to play at least one board game a week with my children.

House

I would like to get my storage room, garage, filing cabinet and kitchen more organzied.

I also want to stay on top of mail, e-mail, the office, and home organization.

Blog

I’d like to continue to blog, I just hope I’m making a difference.

I want to try and do at least 6 guest posts this year.

Try to have at least 6 giveaways this year.

I’m looking into making a membership section of my blog!  🙂  (we’ll see how this goes)

Books

These are some of the books I’d like to read this year.  I do have some that are higher on my list (that I don’t have yet) so I’m hoping to obtain them and read those.
