New Years Resolutions

Every year my father taught me to make a list of resolutions, try to meet them, then the next year see how many resolutions from last year have to be moved forward AGAIN. So here is my 2007 list, the first in several years.

1. Follow my budget at least 9 months of the year
2. Learn enough Spanish to have a conversation
3. Go just one day without sending my kids to timeout or screaming at them. Repeat!
4. Write Doug's Grandmother once a month. She's such a sweet woman.
5. Actually advertise my Real Estate Business. Anyone need to buy or sell in Utah?
6. Try to cook every other day (at least). You can only eat frozen waffles for so long.
7. Try to be a bit more rational. Stop being paranoid.
8. Be paranoid just enough to be prepared.
9. Pay off debt. Hahaha, I know that one will be there every year
10. Lose weight(again, every year) Goal: size 8
11. Get over my past issues, there are so many!
12. Go on a date with Doug once a week. And yes, Doug is my husband.
13. Be less dark and Twisty. Speaking of which, Don't we all just love Grey's Anatomy?
14. To try to teach my Children something at least once a day.
15. Read to my kids once a day. The credits on TV don't count.
16. Read 1 non-fiction book for each fiction book I read.
17. Drag my husband to a Play!
18. Learn a new word a day. Us Utahan's aren't known for our vocabulary.
19. Accept that I will never be Supermom, but I won't give up trying.
