January Goals

I am finally shaking the "new year lollygaging" that I mentioned in my last post. I'm finally getting back into a routine and feeling refreshed with new ideas, goals, and projects for 2012.

I usually make a goal list at the beginning of the year trying to accomplish a number of things before my next birthday. I recently updated last year's list of 28 things to do before I turn 29. Click here to see it. I made progress, but I realized that that which is important at the beginning of the year isn't always as important or relevant at the end. I enjoy making to-do lists SO MUCH that I was really struggling with not making a list this year as I had resolved to do. However, *cue in lights from heaven* I read Elise's January goals post, and realized that was the answer to my problem: monthly goals. I, too, will be featuring monthly goals and projects at the beginning of the month (or the middle like this time ;). I figure if I get 29 things done before my 30th birthday (yeah, it's a big year ;), then I will be satisfied.
Without further ado, my January goals:

Track my meals more faithfully and try a Weight Watchers' recipe.

Try a new smoothie recipe.

Gather home decor inspiration.

Sort through my embellishments.

Label my stamp collection bins.

Mail out the new Close to My Heart idea book.

Be back tomorrow with Muffin Tin Monday.
