Making a list

Alright, it's 2 days into 2009 and I suppose I should set some goals to work towards this year. I'm pretty sure that the 30th birthday played a huge part in the resolution making for 2008, and surprisingly I found myself sticking with a few, like Crossfit and drinking less soda. Unfortunately a few of them didn't make it past the first month, like organizing personal paperwork and cooking. Rather than dwelling on the things I didn't accomplish, I've tweaked them into more clear, manageable goals.

Personal Resolutions:
Crossfit 3 times a week.
Run/Walk for 30 minutes 2 times a week.
Menu Plan Monday during the school year.
Paleo 4 days a week.
One day a month technology free (No phone, computer, Tivo).
Take a girl's only trip.
Start Etsy Store/Craft Booth.
Blog at least 3 times a week.
Eat out once a week.

Work Resolutions:
Arrive at school 20 minutes early.
Leave school by 4:30 each day.
Develop 4 on-line lessons.
Analyze data rather than just signing off on it.

Family Resolutions:
Visit one new place each month (park, event, festival, restaurant)
Family dinner at least 3 times a week.
Family game night once a month.

Alright, there they are. In writing for all the world to see. Blogging and resolutions go together right? For accountability. For shared successes. For shared failures. I'll share mine if you'll share yours :)

Okay...we will totally do the daily phone call before and after school. How about you do the morning shift and I do the 4:30 shift. That way we will both get there early and leave at a decent time. DONE!

C- That sounds great. My problem is going to be actually getting out of the neighborhood at a decent time so I don't get stuck in traffic.

CL- If we have a girl's trip, that means we all have to travel. We were thinking maybe vegas?
