New Year's Resolutions

January 1, 2013

             I love to make New Year resolutions and this year I came up with approximately thirty plus items on my lists.  Yes, I realize that this means I am doomed to fail because I should focus on a few small items.  However, one of my resolutions is to do a 30 day challenge each month.  That makes a total of 12 items, but I'm working on them one month at a time.  So, my friends without further aideu.....my 2013 resolutions.  Please excuse my grammar in the list.


2013 Resolutions
  1. Only use reusable bags when shopping at stores.
  2. Blog once a week
  3. Grow a herb garden.  I buy way too much fresh herbs in packages at HEB.
  4. The yard would be a lot more beautiful if I would plant the tulips I've been keeping cool in the fridge.
  5. break down and buy a blue scrub jacket and possibly have my name embroidered on it
  6. Revamp the Scrapbook room into a craft/classroom area
  7. multivitamin every day
  8. Jot down my achievements.  As a mom I constantly forget what I have done milestone wise.
  9. Buy a journal and record things I'm grateful each week for a total of 52 entries.
  10. A recycle bin needs to be put in the kitchen so badly.  I put items for recycle on the island and it drives Jeffrey nuts.
  11. Birthday Frame buy a frame, print off all birthdays on paper and place in frame
  12. Run 5 miles a week That's a total of 260 miles for the year.  So, I need to reach the later for sure.
