Goals Revisited.

1. Learn how to knit so I can make blankets. Liz can you teach me?! Liz bought me a book for Christmas, now all I have to do is sit down and teach myself!

2. Get all caught up with my scrapbooking. No progress has been made.

3. Lose at least 10 pounds. I have been working out more lately...taking kickboxing and basic training classes, but so far I haven't lost much weight.

4. Get in the habit of working out 4 times a week. I am very close to reaching this goal! I have amazing weeks where I workout 4 or 5 times, then I have sucky weeks where I go once maybe twice.

5. Get a teaching job!!!! I've been applying!

6. Pay off my credit cards and be completely out of debt. This requires a teaching job first. I'm doing my best, but I'll never be out of debt until I have an actual job.

7. Open a savings account and actually start saving money. I am barely making enough money to live on right now...the savings account will have to wait.

8. Get engaged. I was recently told I need to be a nicer person before Andy will marry me. Soooo no engagement anytime soon.

9. Get a new little pupper so Toots will have a BFF, and name her Bianca because she will be my dog so I can do what I want. Why in the world is this one of my goals?!?!

10. Be able to master the walking shimmy (can't remember the actual name) and undulate perfectly. My 3/4 shimmy has drastically improved, although it's not perfect. I'm still working on the undulations...

11. Eliminate McDonalds from my life completely. I have had McDonalds once in the past 2 1/2 months! Not bad for a girl who used to go once a week!

12. Volunteer somewhere. I haven't got around to this yet.

So clearly, not a whole lot of progress has been made, which is actually pretty sad. I made these goals 6 months ago...you'd think I would have been able to accomplish at least one of these!!!
Too bad these weren't my goals....
-Gain so much weight you can't fit into your favorite jeans (that you just bought last summer).
-Buy a house.
-Fail miserably at looking angry in pictures.
-Start watching Harry Potter movies.

I'd be doing awesome!!!

Oh well, by the end of the summer I'm sure I can get some of those knocked off my list!!!

I love all those goals, I don't even make goals that way I can't fail at trying to accomplish them! I can help you on the scrapbooking goal, I have been scrapbooking like a mad man lately. I am almost done with my wedding album.. I know it only took me two years. I am hoping to be all caught up before the baby so maybe some sunday we could meet at the scrapbooking store in Woodbury, I seem to get a lot more done when I am there. If I am at home I get sidetracked way too easy. And if you really want a playmate for Toots, I got a really nice cat that we have to give up before the baby, I will even deliver him right to your door step along with all his toys and food! Let me know, hehehe.
