Resolution Time !!

Share


Do you have any New Years Resolutions? I do! And, Im happy to say I've already begun some of them - I started dieting on Dec 26th!  Here is my list. Leave me a comment with yours - Id love to hear them!

GET IN SHAPE! Surprisingly I have never had this resolution before. My goal is to lose 30lbs by April 1st. Thats 10lbs per month.... I am armed with 2 new workout wii games...and a dance game that I will use as a workout too!  I've found the best prices on produce in my area and have looked up some really great healthy recipes.  So, Im ready!  I started this Dec 26th.  Wanted to wait til after Christmas so I could enjoy all of the great Christmas treats first. (yes, I admit it, I did gain 2 pounds in December from all the goodies!!) My second goal is to lose another 15 pounds by July 1st, for a total of 45 pounds.

CHURCH! I want to be more active in my church this year.  I joined the women's Bible study a few months ago and plan to continue with it.  I am looking into other areas I can help or be a part of that will involve the kids too since I would need to bring them with me.  I would like to help out in the nursery and help with the food pantry at our church too.

SCHEDULE! This involves all aspects of my life, including Couponers United! I have cut out a few extra curricular activities recently (stepped down as cub scout leader, attended a few less playgroups, etc) but have added a few too.  I am going to make a weekly and a daily schedule to help organize life a little better. Homeschooling the kids is my priority, and everything else will be scheduled around that. I've become much too random with checking emails and looking for deals, which can cause chaos and confusion.  Set times = better organization! So, I will be making a schedule for homeschooling, Couponers United, shopping trips, our family business, playdates, fieldtrips, cleaning house, cooking, etc.

SAVING! I will also be tracking all of my savings, spending, and income from online surveys, swagbucks, etc, so I can see exactly how much I save each week/month/year and can share that info with all of you and during coupon classes! I've said this many times, but I finally realize how important it is!

COUPONERS UNITED: I have teamed up with a few other blogs to bring more store matchups. So, please, let me know if there is a store other than : Publix, Winn Dixie, Walmart, Target, Rite Aid, Walgreens, CVS, and Food Lion that you shop at and would like matchups for so I can be sure to add them! I will also be moving my blog in the next month, still the same url: http://www.couponersunited.com/   so be sure to save that to your favorites, not couponersunited.blogspot.com !! Right now both of them take you to my blog, but shortly only the couponsunited.com will work.   Also,  my work at home mom series will start in February. I have lots of great moms on board.  And, last, I hope to have MANY more coupon classes throughout the state of Florida......
