Top Ten Goals for 2011

If you happened to have read my top ten goals for 2010 you would know I am not a fan of New Years Resolutions. But I do like making realistic goals for myself. We can’t better ourselves unless we challenge ourselves, Right?

Top Ten Goals for 2011 (no certain order other then the first one):

3. Blog more.
4. Finish a half marathon this year in 2:45. Giving me a 12.30 pace.
5. Eat 6 small meals a day. And of course they should be healthy. :)
6. Date night with my husband every other month.
7. Get caught up on my kids photo albums. 5 years worth!
8. List items in my ETSY shop.
9. Keep surrounding myself and family with positive and happy people.
10. Wash my car inside and out every two weeks. I thought I would throw this one on for shits and giggles. ;)
