The other day I took a look at my old post on goals for my 33rd year. I called the post 33 for 33 and I came up with 33 goals to complete in my thirty-third year. Here are the goals (the ones crossed off, I completed):
Fitness goals:
3. Compete in at least six races
4. Compete in at least three new races
5. Compete in a half marathon and improve my time
6. Take golf lessons
Financial goals:
7. Increase our emergency savings by 10%
10. Contribute to savings each month
Home goals:
11. Update flooring on the main floor
12. Find/ hang curtains for the master bedroom
13. Fix ceiling in the living room
15. Print and organize photos
Travel goals:
17. Take a family vacation
19. Travel to see Pittsburgh college friends
Personal goals:
23. Get together with friends once a month
Food goals:
24. Try 33 new dinner recipes
25. Try 12 new cocktails
With my kids:
27. Be more patient
28. Do one new activity each month (museum, park, exhibit)
29. Have friends over to play once a month
With Ben:
30. Kiss at least 33 times a day :)
32. Have more date nights
33. Spend more time together (not watching TV) :)
Several of the goals did not get completed and they came back to the same reason: my ankle injury. Because of my ankle injury, I couldn't run (or walk half the year) so I was unable to achieve all of my fitness goals. The financial/home/travel goals did not get completed because all of our extra money went to pay the co-pays and out-of-pocket expenses with my ankle injury. I worked hard to take the girls to new and fun places, but again, the ankle injury prevented that for several months.
I tried several new recipes in the past year but not 33, I am guessing closer to 20. I am very excited that I did get back to my pre-baby weight and have maintained a healthy weight! I am glad that Ben and I got to enjoy an adults only vacation and take time to catch up with our college friends this year. I have enjoyed adding new clothes to my wardrobe and I am still working on getting down "my look". I think we have been pretty social in the last year, but several weeks of sickness in the summer and fall have kept us out of commission at times. Ben and I have definitely enjoyed more date nights and I enjoy kissing him as much as possible each day. :)
So- for 34, I have come up with a few goals:
1. Continue to maintain a healthy weight
2. Increase our emergency savings by 10%
3. Update the flooring on the main floor
4. Take a family vacation
5. Continue to read more often (2-3 books/month)
6. Take the girls to more monuments and museums
7. Try more recipes
8. Continue to have date nights (every 4-6 weeks)
9. Add more clothes to my wardrobe
10. Relax and enjoy where I am and who I am with
Happy Wednesday y'all!
