My plans and goals for 2014, in no particular order at all though I did try to group them by topics
Keep records in homekeeping notebook and put a copy of my goals in the front of it
to remind me
Menu plan a week ahead and try at least 2 new recipes each month. I've already tried 1, Lena's soup
Sew at least 6 quilts with stuff in the craft room- I will need to buy
batting and am wondering if I should buy a giant roll or would it be nuisance to
work with and store. Any advice from anyone who has ever bought a whole roll of batting?
Cricut- follow the challenge blog and do at least one challenge a
month
Pinterest, like Tammy plans to, DO at least one Pin every week, especially
when I find pins that the grands would like to do, get the stuff ready before
they get here.
As in 2014, clean out every drawer, cabinet and closet in this house at least once. Less is More :)
Make some gifts. look on Pinterest of
course!
Health wise- eat more fruit, aim for 2 fresh fruits a day, I buy lots of fruit and serve it to my husband and grands but I don't eat as much of it as I should
Walk at least 5 out of 7 days -aim for 10000 steps
Bible study every day - I mostly read and do 2 or 3 devotion series on the YouVersion Bible App.
Swagbucks everyday -make goal #1 everyday and shoot for goal #2 on days when Swags has many quick earners.
take time every week to watch one old movie or TV show 1962 or older - just because I like them.
Make baked treats for husband's work once a month
Now that we have a gas stove, get out the cast iron skillets and try cooking with them.

blog 15 times a month
Financial goals-
Financial goals-
I have 3 very specific goals but decided to not list them here. I have them in my notebook but for privacy and because we all have different incomes and expenses, I just don't feel confortable listing them,
Stay with our budget and there should be more than enough to accomplish these goals and increase our savings.
There are several financial choices we have made that lower our costs for watching TV without a cable bill, low cost cell phones, easy way to buy gasoline and keep track of that expense and using the envelope system of groceries and personal spending I will be sharing these in future January posts.
I thought this might be a 14 in 2014 list but it ended up a bit longer.
and No, I probably wont accomplish all of them but I like lists and plans and having ideas in written form helps keep me on track.
Hopefully I will get lots done.
Do you make goals or do you call them resolutions or do you just wing it?
