2013, bring it on!



I guess it's time to set goals for 2013.  I did fairly well with my goals for 2012.  I had a healthy baby girl in May and have lost more weight than I could've imagined.  I still have about 15 pounds to go at this point and one more size.  Our income didn't live up to what we originally thought it would be so we didn't meet our financial goals but I am putting a little bit back into my 401k now and since we are short selling the house, the money is going to debt and savings for when we move.  I started a blog and continued with it throughout the year.  And so now it's time to think about this next year.

GOALS FOR 2013

1. Get Hubs to 70% of budget

2. Pay off credit card and NE - Ggy

3. Lose the last 15 pounds and maintain. Workout twice per week.

4. Meal-plan for the month ahead of time.

5. Get the house short sold and move to a bigger place to rent

6. Live simpler.  Purge items, organize.  Work on one room at a time.

7. Build family emergency kits by 2/1/13

These are attainable and I will have to figure out how to get specific enough to ensure these get accomplished.

Most importantly, we are continuing into a season of full-time ministry and are super excited about what God has for us this year.  We are looking to Him to grow and bless the ministry already going on in this community and to determine where we fit in.  To Him be all the glory in everything we do! "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." - Phil 4:13.
