Resolutions 2011


Last year I had a few resolutions (see my OG post here and my latest update here) that I kept throughout the year, but this year I want to do something different. I think that each month I'll have a new goal(s) for that particular month and see how it goes. Each month I'll choose one or a few items I want to get done, work on, or start doing that are either personal, blog related or something else entirely. Doing it this way I feel that if it doesn't work out I won't feel so bad and the ones that do work out I'll simply jump for joy!

So without further ado, here are my goals for January:

1. Start and finish my wedding invitations
I'm seriously dreading this task. My template is almost ready, I'm shopping for paper this weekend, and I've been approved to print them at work on my own time. I have plenty of people who are willing to help me and a craft day for my fave ladies this month so I'm sure I can get it done, but I'm still dreading it anyways. Any tips?

2. Post one OOTD each week
I've really enjoyed doing these posts and have gotten great feedback from you ladies! Thank you so much for your suggestions, comments, and support! This resolution I may try and keep throughout the year, but like I said we'll see how it goes. I'm hoping that this will also get me out of my current work attire rut of plain and boring with nearly no makeup. It's been poor weather out here in CA and the rain makes me useless. Hopefully I can spiff up some and show off.

I have some great ideas for future months and I can't wait to get them started (example: quit cussing- such an ugly habit I've somehow picked up and a new template for LLP), but this month is a bit too busy to get some of them done.

What are your resolutions for the new year? What are things you want to accomplish this year? What are you looking forward to doing?

That's a good idea to set goals for yourself per month. I definitely agree that it's a much more realistic way to meet them and get things done! One of my goals is to finally get rid of the last of those 15 pounds I gained in college from, ahem, drinking too much. So far I've lost about half and can't wait to be rid of them for good!
