Thread: VC Challenge #1: 2009 Resolutions/Goals

I tend to try to make limited resolutions each year. Not because I don't have a list of things I should be doing, but because if I choose just one or two things it may get done.

For this challenge I want you to tell me your 2009 Resolutions/Goals. Each person that posts will get their name entered into a drawing to win a prize! If you SCRAPBOOK a page on your goals, you will get your name entered 5 times.

This is an example of a page I did last year.


I hope to get to work on one for this year during the crop....

Cool challenge.
We have a few goals this year. We're ambitious. Our first was to get the house in order and start getting rid of the stuff/junk that's just piling up.
The basement is well under way. We've gotten rid of most of our plastic storage and are only using glass. Got the laundry room in order (and as a bonus, my card stuff got sorted out). So... so far, so good.

My second goal is to keep working out 5 times a week. The more I exercise, the more likely I'll actually start toning up. LOL

My last goal is to renew my need to keep up with devotions. Hubby and I are SO much better when we do devotions together each night.

I'll have to think about this some more, but I have general goals. I love the idea of scrapbooking them!

My major Goal this year is to keep my house a little cleaner. Like each night all the dishes need to be done or in the dishwasher and i must keep the counters clear.

I am also working on my weight this year but not 100% sure what those goals are going to be this year.

My goal this year is to start losing weight again. I lost a lot on 2007 but 2008 gained some of it back, so it is time to lose that and more.

i know this might just look like a mish mash of elements thrown together but its my hopes for 2009...

That ROCKS Beckie!! Love everything about it!!!

Weight loss goal for the year -- 35 pounds. I'm doing POBLC currently and hope to stick with it long enough to lose some towards my long term goals.

Use less consumables -- cut down on our paper plates, paper towels, etc. It will not only help our budget, but be better for the environment. I'm an avid recycler already, but we go through a lot of trash that ends up in the dump still.

Cut down on our household junk/mess. DH is my worst enemy on this, though. He's such a packrat!

Find time to scrapbook/unwind/me time! I often get so busy and stressed that I don't always take time for myself.

bumping this back to the first page, since it is a challenge for the VC
