It’s been a pretty good year for me. Lots of great memories, lots of things done with my family. However, personally I don’t feel like I’ve accomplished much. I weigh more now than I did at the start of the year, I didn’t get to as much scrapbooking as I usually do and besides making slight progress with my photography I didn’t really make any progress with my hobbies. Some goals were achieved, but more weren’t 🙂
PERSONAL
**** Blog EVERY DAY (where possible) Pretty much – most months had around 30 posts with a low in November of 15!
Take a digital scrapbooking class – already enrolled Completed, but have already forgotten EVERYTHING and need to redo the class online
Look for some volunteer work (there must be something out there I’d enjoy doing) NO
Less time on the computer (a tough one for sure) NO!!!
Complete Project Life (daily photograph) NO – only got up to April this year but I’m planning to go back and catch up
Develop crocheting and sewing skills NO but I’ve recently bought some books to help me along
Make more homemade gifts (or buy homemade if necessary) Didn’t make many homemade gift but I did buy quite a few from Made It
Read more books on simple living, homemade craft, cooking, etc Not really, though I did do a vegetarian cooking class
Have a fabulous – no regrets – trip to the UK!!! YES! YES! YES! (even though I wasn’t the weight I had planned to be)
HEALTH/FITNESS/FOOD
Start and Complete the Diamond Club with Valerie Waters Started, not completed 🙁
Make at least one new recipe each week Progress here, definitely getting more adventurous in the kitchen
Get back to menu planning Somewhat, still need to work on this.
Focus on healthy foods for the whole family Mixed bag – made great progress with Christy’s eating this year
HOME
Work on making my home more “homey” with craft and handmade items Yes – still a WIP
Incorporate detailed cleaning into my weekly routine Did great with us until our trip
Develop veggie garden Yes, this years is one of the best we’ve had
Try to have fresh flowers in the house most of the time Yes, and it’s made me so happy
FAMILY/FRIENDS
More one on one time with all family members – make dates if need to. Yes, but still room for improvement
Spend more time with friends Besides the Powells no – I’ve become much more reclusive this year now I don’t go up to the school at all.
Monthly family day out (we all loved this when we were doing it) Mixed bag – I think we mangaged most months
Help Christy with her reading and spelling Yes, and the results were shown in her school report
Weekly game/movie night NO 🙁
I always keep and break the same New Year’s resolution: I resolve not to make a New Year’s resolution. Easy. LOL
Happy New Year, Libby!!
