Why hello 2011

So I have an entire list of things I would like to accomplish this year. 

1) Having our child med and epi free in just a few short weeks. (I know it could work out differently)

2) Being able to breastfeed her for at least a year

3) Repaint our bedroom gray and make my own curtains out of a light gray and purple material I found that's just beautiful. This will probably happen in May or June.

4) For us to be able to pay off our 66 truck with income taxes so that we only have one car payment (2012 will be our car)

5) Pay down our two credit cards as much as possible. 

6) Start saving at least 10-15% of our money each month again - we were doing good there for a while but life gets in the way sometimes.

7) Start drawing up plans for our future house and actually talk to the VA about a loan instead of just daydreaming about doing so.

8) Get back in school by fall semester and I'll be praying really hard for the scholarship I applied for so I can take a full load and not just one or two.

9) Finish our bathroom! I stripped the wall paper over a year ago and it's still not painted. Hopefully that will be accomplished around the same time as our bedroom.

10) Buy another AKC Min Pin - A female (Plans are for this summer so she can be potty trained before winter)

That's all I can think of right now....it's early and I know my list will get longer as the days pass. I hope everyone has some items on their new years list that they would like to accomplish. In my opinion it's much easier to reach those goals if you write them out first. Almost makes them seem more real.

Here's to 2011 - Let's see what we can get ourselves into this year.
