It’s a fresh new year! I just love a new start. I embrace New Year’s Resolutions completely. (I’ll be posting mine soon. Maybe a little late, but better late than never…right?) The fresh start of a new week with new goals is fun, but a whole new year feels just wonderful to me.
Not everyone agrees with me. Some of you probably think the new year is bunk and just another day. That’s fine, too! Whatever way you find the motivation to do the things you really want to do with your life, find that motivation and hang on to it.

Let’s see how we did with last week’s goals, first.

My goals for this week are the baby steps I’ll need to take to make it to my goals for the year.
Home/Barn
- Complete my baby goat birthin’ kit
- Declutter bathroom cabinet
- Make 2 breakfast meals from scratch
- Get back to meal planning
- List 3 items to sell
Family Goals
- Play a game together
- Read to the little ones daily (I mostly do this, but lately it’s slipped to the side.)
Blog Goals
- Write one week’s worth of content pieces in advance
- Increase Twitter followers to 700
Personal Goals
- Daily Bible readings (Since I’m using an app that I can easily read or listen to podcasts when I find minutes in the day, this has been easier to keep up with!)
- Read 3 chapters of Better Than Before
I’m going to have to be intentional about how I’m spending my time to accomplish all of these things. Luckily I got a new planner for Christmas that I am excited to use! I’m hoping it will help me to use my time more wisely.
How will you spend your week? Tell us your goals, or leave a link if you’ve blogged about them.
I'm Jamie, and I want to help you afford a beautiful life with your family. 
Congrats on getting so much done last week! 😀 And woo for getting a new planner! 😀
I slacked off yesterday, took the afternoon for knitting and watching TV (which, ha, I planned for, just not for not doing anything else!) so my week is not planned yet, but everything is pretty much routine at this point…which means I get lazy and it’s time to switch things up, anyway!
Oh yeah, if I don’t switch it up from time to time I definitely get bored and abandon it. But a day off here and there is good for the body and soul, anyway. 🙂
What a wonderful idea to list out weekly goals! Thanks for sharing with #SocialButterflySunday! Hope to see you link up again this week 🙂
Thanks for hosting the link up!
