Every year I make goals and resolutions (not all carried through) and this year is no exception. Although, I do think I need to have more "plans of action" (like that, De'Etta?) to carry them through. Some things I am muddling around are:
1. Be more fun as a parent--definitely need a plan of action for this one as I have a terrible time being spontaneous and am much better if my fun is planned. I also want to think of some fun things to do in a serving capacity with my girls and whole family.
2. Better time manager--okay, this is one I make every year, but I do think an action plan will help this one too.
3. Take more pictures!--action plan is not too hard for this one...I have some friends who are doing a Project 365 webring where they are going to take pictures every day. I didn't join this, but I am going to try and do this as well.
4. Entertain in my new home--I am totally excited about this one! I love to cook and try new things and love to have people over to share. It has been really hard the last 1 1/2 years in this house, but the new house is begging to be used for entertaining! Come on over...you are all welcome!
5. Decorate the new house--Tim will be a lot of help here as he is the artistic one and I am the detail person. I am not even talking all new furniture and decor, but I want to get it all where it looks warm and inviting so I can enjoy sharing it with others (see #4). At this point we will definitely be using what we have as decor as we won't be able to afford many new things.
This is all I can think of for now, but I will post more thoughts on this as time goes by.

Diann, mine is a combination of your #1 and #2, spending more REAL time with my kids.
:)
Great goals - let me know if I can help you with plans of action. ::snort::
I love setting goals...this year I'm finding that I have reset and set consistently all year and I sort of have them all in motion already. LOL
OK - one of my goals is to find a more relaxing song spot. ::snort:: I certainly do understand what Bre means about panic attacks on my blog....yours is much more restful to read. LOL
Is the song spot new? I either missed it (usually have speakers off) or it's new. LOL
I loaded my song spot after I heard yours. I couldn't think, offhand, of any other songs to search for except this one, which I do love even if it is probably totally overused.

You can certainly help me with plans of actions. I think I am about the most boring mom in the world. Of course, I have all kinds of kids over here at my house on New Year's Eve to play games and watch movies, but I don't think it's about me as much as the electronic "stuff" we have. Then again, you could come to my house so I can practice my "entertaining skills" on you. Actually, I would welcome help with the being more fun and time management. I actually think I know how to do the time management, it's just implementing it.
