Goals update

So, I made up a list of goals to live by and I thought I would update everyone on how I was doing with each one of them:

1. Clean up debt - Well, Dave and I have moved into my moms house to save us our huge mortage payment that we had. Hopefully it was a good choice and will help the debt problem.

2. Work at least 40 hours a week - I am actually doing pretty well on this one besides having to take a day off to pack up the house last week. I have been staying till 4:30 which I never use to.

3. Lose weight/Get in shape - Hm, well no not yet. Dave and I looked at a Y membership because there is one so close to our house now. But it does not fit into our budget so...hopefully when the weather gets better, I will get better.

4. Run 1/2 marathon by this time next year - Reference #3

5. Be nicer to my husband, even if he is not being nice to me - I have been working on this and I have talked to him about it as well. I am trying, but I can do better. 

6. Blog more, even if I don't have anything to blog about -  Ya not doing well no this one either. I did make the effort to scan in all those old pictures though from Easter and that was a chore. Hopefully when I am all settled in this house, I will do better.

7. Drink more water - I am very good about drinking water at work. It is when I get home that I have the problem. It is almost 2pm today and I don't think I have had one glass. I'll go get one right now.

8. Stop giving in to my cigarette cravings for my health, and for my daughter - Maybe I should not have done this update, because again, not doing well on this. The stress is just really getting to me with moving and money and work and school....it's hard but I will work on this too.

9. Actually cook more meals than just pancakes or PB&J for dinner - Since we have been in the moving process AND Dave works a lot of nights, I have not done this. But when Dave is home, we do try and do something special. BUT again since we are trying to save money....PB&J might be the only thing we can afford.

10. Call and visit my grandparents more often - I have been talking to them more than usual but I still have yet to visit them. AND AGAIN, money is really tight right now so I don't know that we will be making a trip soon unless my Dad goes too.

So, this is pathetic, I need to work on these. I will print them off and put them on my fridge to help remind me that I am trying to better myself with these goals. Maybe then I can write a success goal update.
