Happy 2011!

Wow. 2011. Wonder what great things are in store for us this year?

We had a great day and had our traditional New Year's dinner.

Last year, I stated all of my "resolutions". And, I'm not sure if I am a fan of resolutions anymore. I make some and they get broken so I have come to the realization that if I make them more than likely I really don't take them seriously. So, I have decided to make goals instead. To really show how uneducated I am, I had to look up the official definitions of these words to make sure I completely knew what I was talking about and was making the right call. And I think I am. Resolutions are the intentions one makes to do something and goals are results that you try to achieve. Really they're the same thing but...makes me feel better to use the word goal instead. So here are my "goals" for 2011:

1.To treat my girls as individuals and try to remember that they are different girls through and through.

2.To be the best mom I can be every single day, despite maybe losing patience or perspective.

3.To develop and use meal calendars and a house cleaning schedule.

4.For us to keep to our budget...ugh.

5.Simplify our life.

6. Learn to prioritize.

7. Learn not to dwell on things after I have already made a decision.

Luck to all who are trying to achieve their goals in 2011!

Setting Reachable Goals for 2011, I'm thinking I need to reassess and come up with some goals instead of intentions...**
