Grow crops this summer, well really just tomatoes and possibly cucumbers. I will be INTENTIONAL and get seedlings started in April so I can have food by summertime! But don't tell anyone who lives in my neighborhood because they are against the HOA rules...
Clean out/organize one room a month, including the closets in each room. I will post my list of rooms next week so I can be INTENTIONAL about scheduling time for them in the coming months. I know that purging items from each room is such an awesome feeling, plus we are able to get rid of SO MUCH tiny baby/kid stuff.
Purchase new furniture via living room. Sell antiques. I am beyond ready to have some established pieces in my living room. I'd like to create/find some functional storage pieces for the space. It is really small and the seating is awkward, so it makes it challenging. I am going to have to be INTENTIONAL about shopping for it or finding plans to MAKE it.
Repair ceiling in kitchen, repair the wall in the master bath, major yard renovation to grow actual grass in the front yard. None of this will take large amounts of time, but it may require large amounts of money. The yard will be the biggest cost of money AND time. I will have to plan the yard starting in February so we can be INTENTIONAL about getting good dirt and grass.
Run/exercise 3 times a week. I feel like this is the biggest struggle of my life. I know it will make me feel better and be a positive force in my life. It will make all things better and I know that, but MAKING time for it is my struggle. I should alter my goal so that it says MAKE TIME TO EXERCISE 3 times a week, which really just means I have to GET UP EARLY and I hate that. Get over it Carrie. Grow up.
Become a Mary Kay sales director. I will work my business 3 times a week for the entire months of January thru March. If I am INTENTIONAL about working the business then my goal will be a reality.
Quit teaching... must complete the sales director goal first...
Pay off all credit cards. We have been INTENTIONAL about this for the last few months, but I need to be more disciplined about the process. The Dave Ramsey plan is moving us in that direction and I've been planning that for us for months!
