With Joe packing up to head off to save the world-again-I have decided to pass over New Year's Resolutions in favor of Deployment Goals!! I have a lot to keep me busy duriung the year that Joe will be gone. So, here they are. For all to see and keep me accountable!
1. Keep up with the blog
*I get very bored with doing the same thing over and over again so I am going to vary this up a lot. Watch out!
2. Run a 10K
*I can run a 5K now but I give up after that. Joe bought me a treadmill for some reason...I guess I better use it.
3. Finish outline for my book
*I am extremely superstitious so I cannot tell you about it! Let's just say that it is something that I have been wanting to do since I got "married to the military".
4. Lose 5 lbs and get toned
*I suppose this one would go hand in hand with #2. I also plan to dust off my dumbells, get Zumba for the Wii, oil up the jogging stroller (no, not for running...I am not that hard core. Walking), and start eating better. I am addicted to sugar so I might have to go to some Sugar Anonymous classes to get some help. Hi, my name is Robyn, and I am addicted to sugar.
5. Upload all 52,000 pictures to Winkflash and make photo books
*I am a picture hoarder, and I tend to keep them all on an external hard drive. But, what good is that? How am I going to show off all of my memories to the strangers that come to my house?? And so, I have declared that I will free the pictures of the hard drive (well they will still be there) and get them out in the open! It just might take the whole year...or 50.
6. Work on Betty
*Get your mind out of the gutter! This is Betty:
7. Set up savings goals
*Being that I am a Financial Counselor, I have to incorporate some sort of finances into my deployment goals! Here are just a few of them:
-Trip on my own
-R&R trip for 2 full weeks
-New camera, lens and flash
-Big glorious trip when Joe gets home!
-Baby fund for whenever we decide to have number 2
-Max out Roths
-Max out TSP
8. Get Etsy shop up and running
*Who knows if it will be successful, but I have to at least try. I don't even fully know what I want to sell in the shop, but I think that the following would be good:
-Aprons
-Capes
-Baby blankets
-Custom vinyl
-Toddler backpacks
What do you all think that I should sell?
9. Use my Cricut machine for more creative projects
*I have about 30ish cartridges with amazing fonts and shapes on them and yet they sit in a cool carrier. Laziness? Perhaps. Either way, I have to start using them or my husband won't let me buy any more. And, that is just not cool.
10. Relax
*Ha. Read, #1-9 above.
