New Year Resolutions


I don't usually make New Year resolutions, but for 2012 I decided to set myself some goals.  I am going to set them into three categories, the first group is a must, the second is I will try my hardest and the third group will be I will try my best to do.

So the first group of things I think are a must for me this year are:
1. Lose 30lbs, I have gained quite a lot of weight this year and I want to get back to how I used to be.  The first thing I will be doing is cutting out the fizzy drinks which I have been drinking a lot of and the take aways.
2.  Pay off one credit card.  I only have two credit cards but they are always hanging over my head.  My aim is to pay off the one with the smaller balance first.  I don't think I will be able to pay off both as I don't get much money. 

This is going to be my second group:
1.  Try and blog daily for a year.  I don't know if I will be able to stick to this but I am going to try.
2.  Learn to use Photoshop elements 9.  I have had it since August and have been collecting magazines that give you lessons but I haven't got around to doing it and it's something I've always wanted to learn.
3.  To cook from scratch more often.  Most of the time I will admit to being very tired and lazy when it comes to food as my youngest daughter never sleeps well.  I have been researching recipes that look easy and quick and will have at least some form of meat and veg in.

Last but not least my third group.
1.  Take a lot more photos of the girls, I don't want to miss their growing up and it seems I keep forgetting to take pictures of the most important things.
2.  These two coincide with each other, so I will list them as one.  Get life insurance and make a will.

At the moment these are my goals, they may change as the year 2012 goes along but I will try and achieve as many as possible.

I hope everybody has a happy new year.
