2013 Goals

Another year has come and gone... 

 Memories have been made, Laughs Shared, and Countless Moments have Slipped by - Did you make the most of each of them?


As the new year rings in I have made my list of goals so that I can be more intentional in my living, and accomplish more for myself and my litter.  I am hoping to create less stress 
Stick to Monthly Budget/Use Cash
Read 1 Non-Fiction Book Every Month
       Along with Additional Fictional Novels
1 Baking Project Every Month
1 New Recipe Every Month
Complete Couch to 5K and Run a 5k Race
Pay Off Home Equity Line
Make Homemade Gift for Holiday List
Be More Prepared & Organized for Holiday Season
Finish Resume Updates
Yoga 1x/Week
Re-organize/Decorate Office Area
Re-organize closets & cabinets
1 Date Out per Month with Sean



In order to be more organized and be better at completing my goals in 2013 I have decided to also implement the goal of creating monthly, weekly, and daily to-do lists that will help me focus on the goals in smaller pieces and stay on track through-out the year.

 I have always looked at the big picture, but I forget to break it down so that I can actually get things accomplished.  I then get burnt out over not being able to complete something all at one time.  I give up and say that I will come back to it, but I never do.  This year is going to be different.  I am going to take my time, plan out my days, weeks, and months with intention.  

 I will complete what I need to come out stronger on the other side!

 What are your goals for this year? This month? This week? Today!?

 Ok... Now go out & conquer your world.

This blog was originally started to document different things that we were doing in order to move towards early retirement.  That was years ago before we decided to have our Sweet B.  We planned to work, travel a little, and budget so we could retire and spend the rest of our lives doing whatever we wanted....  Life had other plans, and we now have the best gift of our lives - along with all of the expenses that come with having a child, as well as the want to not work as much so we could spend more time with her. Even with these new diversions, the goal remains - Retire Early, and Enjoy Life.  We have seen so many friends and family that are working into their later years, or who have too little money to actually enjoy their retirement, and even worse - those that never made it to their later years with the chance to retire and relax. Every year we give ourselves a large goal - one that is just enough of out reach to make us stretch for it, but realistic eno...

Bicycles

Over the past couple of weeks I have been very interested in Bicycles. Not the ones you ride, even though I have been going on more bike rides then usual as well, but the  decorative bicycles.  I have picked out some that I like for decoration on my porch, I have found note cards that have cute bicycles on them, and then yesterday for my birthday I received a card with an adorable bicycle filled with flowers, followed by an online picture that I was tagged in that read "Life is a Beautiful Ride" I kept thinking about how interesting it was that this kept coming up in my life, and so this morning I googled what a bicycle symbolizes.   According to  We Know Your Dreams  " Seeing a bicycle is a hint that you will reach somewhere."  It is a symbols of moving, going forward, and heading towards your future.  To me this means that I should start planning for my future, and deciding what I want my next step to be.  I have been thinking abo...

Happy Mother's Day

This will be another fun holiday to celebrate, in quarantine. Luckily, things are starting to loosen up around our area so we are able to spend quality time with some of the family that we normally celebrate with, I was gifted a beautiful cart that we have had for close to 10 years sitting in our backyard.  My husband refurnished and repurposed it into a garden area for me so that I can enjoy my plants, without rabbits eating them, and without having to bend over to weed them and take care of them.  I also get the bonus of it having wheels, so when it decides that it is going to snow in the middle of May, I can just wheel it into the garage! This afternoon B decided to decorate the side of it with chalk, telling me how much she loves me, and that I am the best Mommy.  I planted tomatoes, mint, rosemary, kale and cucumbers.  Let's see how much of a green thumb I actually have! I was also given some lavender plants, as I have fell in love with lavender ove...
