November's Goals

The little wheels in my head have been spinning and I thought I'd take a second and jot down a few of the things I would like to accomplish this month.

1. Work more rigorously to complete my running goals.
2. Get the carpets scrubbed before it gets to cold in our house for the carpets to actually dry out. Done 11-3
   
3. Reading the scriptures (more often) with a greater purpose in mind.
4. Finish my crocheted rug.
   
5. Plan Livie's b-day party . Done
   
6. Scrub our couches down.
7. Finish the Anne of Green Gables books. Accomplished 11-25
   
8. Plan a monthly dinner menu. Created 11-6
   
9. Eat just one serving of food each meal, no seconds.... (this one's going to be incredibly hard for me, especially since I'm cooped up in the house all day)
10. Have a family dinner with my siblings and my parents. Attempted 11-9
    
11. Write thank you notes, that are long over due.
12. Spend at least one night out with Derik and no kids.
13. Spend some "alone" time with each of my kids.
    
14. Find the good in others and praise it.
15. Load up my Ipod with scriptures to listen to, instead of the news. Ipod loaded up 11-3
    
16. Teach myself something new. Made from scratch Sourdough Pizza 11-18, Crocheted Hat 11-21
    
17. Have a craft night with my kids.
18. Have the dishes done before I go to bed.
19. Focus on having family prayer every night.
20. Plan ahead for FHE instead of doing it last minute.
21. Paint my toenails. I even painted Livie's 11-24
    

I'm sure I might be adding things to this list as I go, but this is all I could remember at the moment.
