This Week's Goals

Last week I got quite a bit done, but I'm still behind in getting out our last two Christmas packages, finishing thank you notes, and putting away the last couple of Christmas items.

Here are this week's goals:

Christmas:

Put $5 into Christmas envelope.
Knit 10 rows on the partridge.

Knitting:

Finish 1 washcloth.
Knit 6 rows on the mustang and its accessories.
Knit 13 rows on the Maximum Scarf.
Finish the other bathroom hand towel.

Parenting:

Spend 15 minutes taking more notes from Raising Happiness.
Make sure kids have their Morning Cards habit ingrained.
Make sure Nick makes using the big toilet (instead of the potty) a habit. (Almost there!)
Work on Xander's "turtle steps" toward not whining during school.
Read aloud at most breakfasts, lunches, and dinners using the books from my 2013 read-aloud books list.

Financial:

Strictly stick to our budget plan.
Use afternoons to do money-saving tasks on the computer.

Marriage:

Work on my own "turtle steps."
Starting Friday, consistently get up early with Erik so we can both work on our fitness plans.

Personal:

Get up at 6:00 every day. Begin routine.
Continue to make meal preparation, laundry, and training/teaching/listening to my kids my must-do priorities. (Not necessarily in that order.)
Continue making a to-do list each day and prioritizing it.
Attend church on Sunday.
Visit the Chronicles of a Babywise Mom Google group on Sunday.
Follow our schedule. Every deviation has the potential to take us off course from our goals!

This sounds and looks like a lot! Perhaps it is, but all the knitting goals put together really only equal one task, especially because I enjoy my knitting time.
