A Whole New Year!!! 2012 Here I come!

I'm so glad for a new year and a new start! 2011 ended in a lighter way than it started, which can only mean 2012 is going to be great!!! Though on the very last day of 2011 Pips decided it would be rather fun to drop my palm pre 3 into the toilet! Thanks Pips! You have to laugh don't you?


Anyway, I was making my goals on Monday and I've decided to really go for it in the improving of myself area! So here they are:


Home:
  • Keep on top of housework and maintain a tidy household.
  • Make the house more homely with pictures and personal touches.
  • Spend time improving and maintaining the outside/garden.
Health:
  • Lose a stone by Christmas 2012 by:
    • Exercising for 15 minutes each day.
    • Cutting out chocolate and cutting down on sweets and snacks.
Church:
  • Support John in his calling by not murmuring about it.
  • Be more prepared for Sunday YW lessons.
  • Get to know the Beehives better.
Spiritual:
  • Study the Sunday School lesson each morning.
  • Read the Book of Mormon each night.
  • Pray more meaningfully morning and night.
Family:
  • Hold family Home Evenings:
    • John - Lesson
    • Maureen - Activity
    • Ansi – snack
  • Have Anthony and Pip chores for the house.
  • Show more love & less impatience towards all family members. Doing one nice thing for each person a week.
Personal:
  • Write at least 1 poem a month
  • Make at least 1 card a month
  • Help uplift one person a month.
Finances:
  • Aim to save money by:
    • Bulk buying where can.
    • Planning meals and sticking to them.
There are more under the section titled Mo & John, but I think those are personal ones for us only to see. :) Feel free to ask me at any time how my goals are coming along! I need the support and prodding at times! Hopefully by the end of this year I will actually be happy with myself! :D

    Fab goals Mo! :) Although I don't agree with "cutting out chocolate"- I could never ever do it, and if one day you cave, then you have ruined the entire year! It might be easier/more manageable to eat chocolate once a week, and you get to be really selective over the one hideously naughty bit of chocolate cake you choose, or something!! Just my opinion... :)

    Hey Abby! I'm cutting chocolate because I simply can't do the one bar a week thing! It really is a vice for me. So not having it at all is easier. I have done it before with success so I can confidently have it as a goal without fear of caving. I've not had any since the turn of the year and haven't craved a bite even though it's been right in front of me. :) I am praying all the time for it not to be a craving so I know Heavenly Father will help with that one. I really think cutting it out will help with my face and my health in general. :) I'm sure you could do it if you set your mind to it. xx
