How'd I Do... January Goals

Let's take a quick look at how my goals went for January...

January Goals:

Homemaking-

Finish cleaning up Christmas decor

Finalize decorating plans for toy room - I think it's gonna look really cute.  I just need to find the motivation to actually carry out my plans.

Clean house and prepare for guests

Cooking-

Try three new recipes - Garlic Cheddar Chicken (Yummy!!!), Chicken Cordon Bleu (This was delish!!!  I actually used provolone cheese instead of swiss since I already had it.  It was the best Chicken Cordon Bleu I've ever had), the third wasn't an actual recipe really... instead of making rice and black bean tacos we made rice and black bean quesadillas which were really good.

Organize freezers - Unfortunately, I didn't get around to this... this will be high on my list for February.

Mothering-

Practice having more patience

Read stories at least once a day

Do a munchkin craft once a week

Creating-

Finish sewing curtains for the nursery - Grrr... I really really need to get this done.

Make at least three hair bows - I didn't get three made, but I got two made... close enough if you ask me.

Financing-

Save half the cost of new desk

Spend $300 on groceries this month

Enriching-

Go back to the gym this month - The week that I planned on going back Andrew was sick and couldn't watch the   munchkins and then the next week Cameron was sick... sooo, February it is.

Start a personal scripture study routine - Didn't happen.

Read a book - I started reading "The Happiness Project", but didn't finish because the book was due back at the library and I couldn't renew... I did however check it out again and plan on finishing it in February.

Blog once a week
