2010 Goal Recap

With the end of 2010 I had a chance to recap my goals. This was a trying year for me and my family, but I made it through and can still see the positive.

 

1. Read at least 2 books a month

Read 23 books for the year. Missed the goal by 1 book!

 

2. Learn and expand my knowledge to further my career goals

More than I would have expected. With my boss on Maternity leave for 3 months I took over her job!

 

3. Learn to Knit or Crochet (make a scarf and a blanket)

Yahoo! I learned to Crochet! I made both a scarf and blanket, plus other items

 

4. Eliminate clutter around the house, make our home more organized

Done! Plus we moved and got rid of a bunch of items

 

5. Stick to my monthly budget

Fail- we had some hits to our wallets this year

 

6. Be accountable and more conscious of my daily/weekly spending

I was more accountable. If we weren't this year would have been a lot tougher between my medical bills, the dogs medical issues and our move.

 

7. Pay off my car and find a replacement

PASS! In April I purchased a new car

 

8. Contribute more to our savings for the purchase of a house

Fail. See #5

11. Make 4 new recipes a month

Pass! I tried all sorts of new things for the year.

 

12. Make more creative meals, and cook at home more (will help us save more $$ for the house)

Pass! Loved trying new things!

 

13. Help out and donate time to my church or other charities

I am very proud of what I accomplished this year

 

14. Be a better blogger

Getting there, I have made good progress this year

 

15. Scrapbook more, document our life in creative ways

I have not scrapbooked nearly enough this year

 

16. Be a supportive, loving and helpful wife, sister, friend and family member

I may have not accomplished all my goals but I certainly made progress. I am going to continue to make goals and have plans for achievements. This is the best way I can keep my self on track. Thanks for reading along on this journey!
