How'd I Do... March Goals

March was an incredibly busy month, so not a whole lot of "extra stuff" got done.  But, I did manage to get a few things done.  So here we go with March's goals:

Homemaking-
Decorate the toy room - The plan for the toy room has changed and we're going to be doing some re-arranging of rooms, sooo the toy room decorating is on hold until rooms have been re-arranged.
Finish decorating the munchkins room - Almost done.
Tweak a few things in the living room - There was absolutely no time this month to even make a trip to IKEA.

Cooking-
Clean out the freezer - I got the outside freezer clean, but not the inside.
Prepare three different freezer meals - Meatloaf, Sweet and Sour Meatballs, Taco Meat
Try three new recipes - Gorgonzola Stuffed Chicken Breasts, Grain and Nut Whole Wheat Pancakes, Creamy Italian Chicken and Orzo Skillet

Mothering-
Take some time for myself each week to go and do something I want to do - Hit and miss... this last month was really busy.
Practice Patience
Go on a walk once a week - When the weather permitted we made it out.

Creating-
Sew something - Not one single thing was sewn last month.
Alter one piece of clothing in my closet
Sew curtains for nursery

Financing-
Get our new desk - How pathetic that we haven't even had time to go and pick up the desk.  It's already picked out even... we just have to go pay for it.

Enriching-
Blog once a week - I did really good this month.  I didn't blog while we were away in San Francisco, but  I think I more than made up for it with my San Fran posts.
Read a book - Haha... I actually got to read a book this month.  Of course it ended up not being a very good book, but I actually got to read again.
Spend some time with my hubby - We've been really busy this last month, but it was so nice to spend some time together in San Francisco.

Let's move onto April's goals:

Homemaking-
Re-arrange rooms.  I feel like this is going to be a huge undertaking.  Here's the plan:
    Toy room becomes guest room
    Guest room becomes food storage room
    Basement living area becomes toy room
Re-arrange front room

Cooking-
Try three new recipes
Clean out inside freezer
Make three freezer meals

Mothering-
Practice patience
Sign Ella up for preschool
Have an art project once a week
Work on ABC's and 123's sight recognition and sounds with Ella

Creating-
Sew nursery curtains
Sew matching skirts for my girls

Financing-
Finally get our new desk
Figure out the cost of shelving in the food storage room

Enriching-
Read a book
Go to the gym twice a week
Catch up on my magazine reading
