1) Complete 12 Home Improvement Projects in 12 months:
 |
Add the knobs to the cabinet under the kitchen sink.
Fix the sewer line out of the house, through the basement wall.
Replace the baseboard heater in the hall bathroom.
Replace the lighting in the hall bathroom.
Re-enamel the hallway bathroom tile.
*If you're keeping count, that's 6 to date. Only 6 more to go!
2) Lose a few more inches around my waist.
I'm not at my goal yet, but I am steadily working at it. I really would like to lose more inches, but as long as my doctor is happy with my blood work, I am going to take my time losing the inches. I have lost inches this year. Just not as many as I want!
3) Get Away With My Husband - TWICE - over the year.
We've gotten away once.
Second trip is planned!

5) Post At Least 12 Reviews on my Books for Teens Blog
Look for posts on this later this week!

| That's our new bathroom floor! |
The moratorium is over! End of May, and we can spend money on unnecessary things again. For now, that means I can pay for some plants for landscaping in the front. Bigger picture, I am saving again in order to build our emergency savings fund back up to where I like to have it.
8) Learn Another Language.
I don't know if I'm going to get back to this one.
9) 100 Things Every Marylander Should Do
I was hoping to knock off a few of these this year. Not all 100, but maybe five more of them? I really need to get my act together!
10) Daughter's Quilt
I've taken a break from this over the past month. I HAVE finished tying a quilt. The denim quilt my Mother in Law made when my husband when off to college years and years ago. I'll post more about that adventure on another day. Right now, I'm trying to figure out how I'm going to bind the damn thing.

11) Clean Out Closet and Dresser Drawers
I really need to get back to this. I've been trying to pack up oldest child's stuff and move it down into the basement so that middle child can move into the room - and LIVE in that room - until he saves enough money to move out on his own.
12) Clean Out the Little Room in the Basement and Make it Usable
I've made some progress on cleaning this out over the past month. I don't know how much progress I'm going to make on the actual remodeling of it considering how much money
13) Work on Landscaping the Front Yard
Sadly, I got a head start on this when the plumber pulled out one of the big bushes in front of the house. Now, I have only 4 overgrown bushes to take care of in the front yard.

I finished the class! I submitted two of the lessons that I wrote, and they have been approved as library programs for this summer! Hooray! It's going to be a great summer! Even better? I got a few more CEU's to add to the total number of hours I need to renew my teaching certificate.
How are you doing with your resolutions this year?
