New Years Resolution (Year 2)

From the header, you can probably tell I am going to take a whack at the same New Year's Resolutions from last year.  I'm narrowing it down to three this year though:

• Budget Better & Save
• Organize & De-clutter 
• Read 6 Books

 Budget Better & Save
I started off this morning by discussing with my husband our budget plan for the year.  We pretty much agreed to a basic envelope system with three categories: gas, groceries, and fun money.  Now we just have to get to the bank to start and also create our home organizing system, which leads me to...

Organize & De-clutter
To organize and de-clutter I'm going to try my best and follow the same 52 Weeks To An Organized Home.  So tomorrow on my to-do list I will be to print my daily lists and resolutions, as well as purchase (already not following my budget!) materials for a Menu Board, Family Control Center, and a Family Calendar.  In addition, I will be attempting to completing my daily cleaning goals.We shall see how this goes this year!

Read 6 Books
I have had the Twilight book series for at least 3 years now.  I'm being much more modest with my goal so I can break into this hopefully habit slowly.  So I'm going to start with the first book Twilight, this week and see if I can finish the series and another book or two in the next year!

Oh! And this will all be on top of trying to blog more regularly, my NEW goal of making crafts (maybe some tutorials) and selling through my Etsy Shop to earn at least $520 this year, and trying my best to implement a daily low-key exercise routine.  So really, six resolutions if you are counting!

Wish me luck and happy new year!  I'm off to start dinner, empty the dishwasher, wipe the counters, sweep, pick up baskets, knock-out one load of laundry, clean windows & mirrors, exercise and start reading!  bahaha! At least there are at least 6 hours left in my day!
