In the past I have made some New Year's Resolutions and failed miserably. This year, I decided to make some changes that will hopefully change my life for the better. I purposely did not start this at the beginning of the year, or month, or even week. In the past, if I got off track, I always waited for another beginning of the week or month to get back on track. Not anymore! Everyday is a good day to work on my goals even if a have a few stumbles along the way, tomorrow is a new day.
A few things I'm working on:
1. Saving money. Yesterday, I had a moment of panic about bills. I worried about whether or not I should leave my life as a stay at home mom behind and go back to work. I know I'm not alone in my worries as many families face this same issue. After weighing the pros and cons, I have decided that I am going to continue to remain home for my kids. I just need to be more diligent with our finances.
2. Clearing out the clutter and getting more organized. Lately I have been feeling like our house is shrinking. Time to fix that!
3. More quality family time! The girls have asked to have family game night and we have been doing that. It's been fun!
4. Living healthier! I've gained some weight and that is not okay! Some of it can be blamed on my cancer meds, but a lot of it has to do with my poor food choices and just plain laziness. I plan to make myself accountable for my choices by posting a goal for each week. I did this in the past and it actually worked, so I am hoping it works for me again!

Have you recently set any new goals for yourself? I'd love to hear about them!
