Resolved...

I made it a point a few years back to stop setting New Years Resolutions. I made it a goal to see my life as a continuing circle and as a whole chunk. Instead of putting off goals until January, I tried in earnest to work a little bit harder each day. Yeah, you guessed it. That didn't work either. I came to the conclusion that goals are HARD. Especially the hard ones. I'm so enlightened I will burst into flames at any moment.

So this year, I figured I would set some small goals, stick in the word TRY and STRIVE, then set a percentage amount to each goal of how likely I think I am to stick to them. Here they go.

• STRIVE to cook more at home instead of eating out. 45% likely to happen.
• TRY to make it to church every Sunday and on time. 87% likely to happen in my heart.
• STRIVE to answer my voicemail more often, charge my cell phone and return phone calls. 5% likely to happen.
• TRY Keep the house picked up an organized. 12% likely to happen.
• STRIVE to not get frustrated and irritated when people point out the things that are wrong with me and the things I need to change about myself. 2% likely to happen.
• TRY and enjoy my kids and husband and spend time together as a family. 92% likely to happen especially if #1 does NOT happen.
• STRIVE to eat healthy, exercise and set a good example to my kids. 5% likely to happen if my Aunt Flow is visiting, 22% likely to happen if I'm tired, 64% likely to happen if I get sleep and if #1 does happen.
• TRY to have another baby. -97% likely to happen. That's NEGATIVE 97% likely. In other words, not a chance.
• STRIVE to be a more awesome chick. 0% likely to happen because I'm so awesome already.
• TRY and not ramble like an incoherent crazy lady on blog. Ummmm.... you tell me.
