Do you make New Year's Resolutions? Like me, do you usually forget about them before January is over? :) I haven't made resolutions in years because I hate it when I forget about them and then feel dumb that I even tried. So, after not doing them for a while, I discovered--- that if you don't make the goals, you for sure won't accomplish them! Ha ha. Like it was difficult to figure that one out. So, for the first time in a few years, I am not making resolutions, but I AM making goals. Same diff, right? Whatever progress I make will still be better than me not making the goals! Some goals are personal, and I won't be sharing them. But some are not.
1. I am going to try to get as many of my UFO s (UnFinished Objects) done as I can this year. But I think saying that isn't quite specific enough. I will try to finish one unfinished project a week. I am hoping that it will help clear out a lot of the "stuff" hanging around here! And getting rid of some of the clutter will feel so much better!
2. Along with that, I am going to try to post regularly- every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. That will help give me incentive to get some of these projects done! Monday will be a recipe (one of my unfinished projects is going through an entire packing box full of recipes I've clipped from various sources. I don't want to include them in my recipe book if I haven't tried them and liked them! I have lots and lots to go through and try, type up, and organize. So, please, bear with me on it! :) Wednesday will be some sort of craft or homey idea, project, or tip. Heaven knows I have lots of those kinds of projects hanging around, unfinished! Friday will be some sort of sewing project, idea, or tip. You don't even want to know how much fabric I need to use up! Let's just say I have been trying to use it up, and over the last year have only managed to use up maybe 20%. Maybe less. So sad, I know. So---- I will be restricting as much as I possibly can --- these fabric projects to fabric I already have on hand. The idea is to finish projects, not just start new ones! :)
3. Keep it simple. As in, that's it. I think those two public goals (in addition to my personal ones) will take up a bit of time, and I want to try to make it do-able so I don't give up. So, that's it for the "public" goals.
What goals do you have in mind for the New Year?
Love your plan for goals :) I haven't even made any goals yet.....still trying to get back into reality after a lazy Christmas break!
