Looking Forward

I've been thinking of my New Years Resolution List. In years past I've had a few, most of which start with Lose Weight. Lose Weight. and Lose Weight. I can't think of a time when I didn't want to lose weight since I was 10 years old or so. Which is sad because when I was 10 I was really skinny but I thought I was fat.

So I think it's safe to say that #1 on the list is. I am thinking of going back to doing a weight watchers type diet.

1. Lose Weight

Which means I'll be taking all those left over cookies and fudge and what nots to work this week to get them out of my house.

Along with losing weight I'd like to try to run a 5K. I know I tried this last year and fell off but it's ok. I can try again right? So

2. Run 5K

I really want to get back to using coupons again. I used to rock the coupons thanks to Teri's List/The Grocery Game. Eventually I started using Coupon Mom since her site is free and I had the hang of it. When I went back to work I quit using coupons because I just didn't have the time to do it. I really need to MAKE the time and get back to it.

3. Back To Using Coupons

This next one might sound kind of weird. I think I need to try and be a better wife. It's easy with all the hustle and bustle for me to feel very grouchy towards Scott. We've went almost my whole 5 days off with hardly talking to eachother. It's very easy for me to do. He spends most of his time in front of the TV and I either play on the computer or just go about doing whatever. I'm thinking if I just do a few small things daily it will help us connect more. I'm not sure exactly what those small things are yet. Any suggestions? He makes me coffee every morning, which is super nice. He's started making the kid's lunches also. I thought he was doing that to be nice to me but later found out he does it to make himself get out of bed. (and for some reason that annoys me even though he's helping me out). He gets up pretty early so I don't know if anything "before work" is possible.

4. Be A Better Wife

I'd like to make dinner every night. Although baseball and softball season will be starting soon but with some work I can still make dinner, right? Along with making dinner every night is having a PLAN for making dinner.

5. Make Meal Plans and Dinner Ever Night

I'd really like to get at least one credit card paid off. Those sneaky little things have a way of suddenly becoming very large. Which is NOT GOOD. Hopefully everyone can stay out of the hospital/surgery/broken bones/vet and we won't have any huge expensives that we can't cover with our regular paychecks.

6. Pay Off A Credit Card

That's about all I can come up with for now. How about you? Do you have any things you'd like to accomplish in the new year?
