Setting Goals

I am one tired puppy! I have enjoyed the Christmas Holidays with family and friends but this chick is tired! I want to curl up on the couch with a good book and camp out there for at least two days! Alas, there is too much to do....

A couple of weeks ago, I was inspired by the song "Happy Christmas" which got me to thinking about the passing of a year and "what have I done". I do want to take time to reflect on my accomplishments over the past calendar year and set new goals for next year. Not resolutions per se, but goals to work toward.

Accomplishments

*lost 30 pounds
*obtained a Master's Degree in Middle Grades Education
*got a new job at the Middle College
*started my Tastefully Simple Business

Goals
*walk in a diabetes walk this spring
*begin PhD program
*cook my way through the Telephone Pioneer Cookbook and blog about it
*get training in the teaching of economics

I have always found that writing out my goals helps me to accomplish them. So, here we are a simple set of goals that are simple and obtainable. Lets see how things look one year from now...
