...I had a really good motivator for this one. My house is a disaster…not a super total disaster – I’ve seen worse…but not by much. I don’t understand how it happens though. I know how to cook and clean, I seem to spend most of my time doing it and yet I never get anywhere. Add to that my desire to look and sound the part and I don’t think I’ll ever accomplish this goal but I’ll try. First thing I need to establish is what I’m actually trying do. I want to:

Keep a clean AND tidy house everyday
Never go to bed with dishes in the sink
Have all my clothes clean at the end of the day
Cook all of our 3 squares a day from scratch
Dress and “make myself up” EVERY morning not just special ones.
Be more demure and much less bitchy.

- and enjoy it!

I want to this goal accomplished ASAP so when we’re ready to start having kids I will be the ultimate stay-at-home mom, and all the other broads at the homeschooling play groups will chitter jealously about how perfect I am while eating my award winning peanut butter squares, lol!

I want to do this gradually, cause that’s the only thing that will work. I hope to complete this goal in roughly one year, no longer than 2.

well, this one’s a no brainer. My husband and I are super broke and I’m an artist – problem is I’m a shopaholic! I LOVE buying new, manufactured goods!! It just feels so…happy! So I’m taking the ‘handmade pledge’ and I’m going to attempt to make everyones gifts this year. My husband is amazing when it comes to baking so between cookies and crafts we should be able to pull Christmas out of our proverbial asses.

I started remodeling my condo this summer and while I’ve gotten most of it done I’m having a hard time getting everything wrapped up.
I still need to:

FIX all my bad paint work
Clean all the paint off the floor
Finish replacing Trim
Reorganize the studio
install my desk ‘system’ I designed
Paint ‘the’ pink wall
repair and hang bathroom mirror
hang all the mirrors and pictures I have propped up against the walls
Clean out/reorganize the living room closets
paint the bathroom trim/door
Paint the interior garage door
paint the black pipes, running down my white walls, white

I think that’s it. I wonder if all those should’t be individual ‘things’...
