Goals that are decidely not resolutions

As any good procrastinator would, I have waited until Jan 4 to start thinking about what my resolutions for the new year should be. That is, if I were the type to make resolutions.  I like to think that I'm not that type.  In reality, I am.  My point really is that I make resolutions but I prefer to call them something else so I don't seem quite so traditionally set up for failure.
Now that I have made that as clear as mud, here is my list of goals that are not resolutions for 2012.

**Get organized.
I really want to work on decluttering our home and lives. This is harder for me than it sounds because of the next one.

**Work on expecting less perfection.
I am a perfectionist who gets hung up on the, "if you can't do it right, don't do it" philosophy.  Unfortunately, I rarely have time to "do it right" so, I just don't do.  That is unhealthy.

**Be more intentional about showing grace and love to my spouse and son.
I can admit, many times I fall short.

**Live on a budget and envelope system.
This one is going to be a tough one for me cause I am a tool when it comes to our finances.  I know we can do it though!

**Give myself some time but not too much.
I have to make some time to read, blog, etc. without feeling guilty for doing so.  I also have to be careful to realize that I have work to do!

**Send thank you cards and fill out that baby book!
I make this resolu..I mean..um..goal every year and never follow through!  Fingers crossed that this is the year! L is 3 and has an almost empty baby book! lol!

**Live life more intentionally.
I think this is so all encompasing, there is not much else I can say about it.

Okay, I have to go now.  It's time for me to follow through with the final resolution, I mean GOAL.

**COOK DINNER AT HOME!

Love ya peeps. I raise my sparkling cider to a fabulous 2012 for us both!
