Default Goals for Jan/feb 2012

Cant think more than a couple of months ahead so here's my goals for the first 2 months

1 - Take my theory test and actual driving test - and pass
2 - Work hard at my Mary Kay business and actually book some appointments and not use all my inventory for myself
3 - Go to Denny's (I know I know but have never been and really want to go)
4 - As always loose some weight (after Ive had french toast at Dennys)
5 - Learn too cook more than chicken stir fry - and do it with a smile
6 - bake a cake
7 - give up eating crisps

Im sure there's more but think that's enough to be getting on with!!
What's yours???

I'll be happy enough with getting through January without any booze or carbs.

For your cake how about a fruit cake, infusing the dried fruits with porter instead of tea:

Default Re: Goals for Jan/feb 2012

1) Complete my first Uni course
2) Exercise so I can wear a bikini for my holiday in mid February
3) Organize my weekday meals, so I cook big batches and don't have to cook from scratch every night.
4) Spend time every night playing games/wii/basketball with my daughter. Just spent 2 weeks doing fun things with her while we were off work/school and then it goes back to only doing stuff on a weekend.

Not sure how I am going to find time to do 1, 2 and 3 but i'll give it a good go.

I can actually be quite constructive during that time if I take my iphone with me, where do you think I'm typing this from

I hope you noticed that 1, 2, and 3 are difficult tasks that she really doesn't want to do but probably should do but 4 is fun.

1. Read for pleasure for an hour per day
2. Walk to/from work instead of take the bus at least 6x per week
3. Get back into driving (I hate driving )
4. Put the Christmas tree away...I don't even want to admit how long it was up last year
5. Brew 2 more batches of beer before summer hits
6. Buy some decent summer clothes - I can't put myself in shorts anymore, I just can't.
