My plan for 09 is to make goals for myself and keep them...Each month has a new goal!
Personal: Lose 5 pounds this month. I know I can do it! Its just a matter of eating that good breakfast, a decent lunch and a portion of dinner. No snacking after 7 and a lot more water! I drink WAYYYYYYY to much coffee!
Financial: Pay off half of the balance owed on my Target Credit Card. It is not a high balance card whatsoever however I want it gone. Yes its only 10 more dollars in my budget but with Jeff working less and less its starting to really hurt!
Kids: I would like for the prince to get better with these fits. He HAS to be able to get to bed at a reasonable time. I want him in bed every night by 8:30 its just to hard getting him up in the morning and then back down for a nap! When he has his rest he seems to throw them a lot less.
The princess needs to get better with people. She never wants to play with toys or anything else. She just wants to be where I am crawling all over me. She needs to get better with toys or tv or something momma needs her space.
Marriage: We have a VERY busy month...this weekend I am hosting a birthday get together for my mother, next weekend we have Jeffs holiday party at work. I would like for us to get rid of the kids one of the other 3 weekends for a night and go and use our gift card his parents gave us for Christmas for a free dinner just the two of us and maybe even see a movie if I can set aside the money in the budget!
Shopping: NO MORE SHOPPING! I am vowing that this month I have 40 dollars to spend on shopping..Places like Target, Gymboree, Yankee Candle etc. I don't need anything else in the house right now. I NEED to get ahead a little!
I am just going to copy your goals, but replace the Target Card with Ann Taylor Loft and we are all set!
ReplyDeleteI think your goals are great and very attainable. You have inspired me as well. Good luck and keep us posted.
