Goals

I have decided to try to make some small changes in my daily routine/life to try to be, for lack of a better word, better. Now, there are actually lots of things that I would like to accomplish, so the list may seem a bit over zealous, but if I can accomplish a few I will be happy. I don't expect to do everything all at once and my list is simply a guideline.

The list:

• Try a new recipe once a week (or once every other week).
• Walk the dog more often or go for longer walks...it's good for both of us.
• Smile at everyone you come in contact with...even if you are having a crappy day...you might cheer someone else up.
• Clean one room/area of the house per day so that by the weekend it's all done and time can be made for fun stuff.
• Be more selfless/less selfish.
• Actually use my sewing machine instead of watching it collect dust.
• Learn Spanish (again)...I had 4 years of Spanish in school but would like to brush up and learn Latin American Spanish
• Take a dance class
• Take Buddy to obedience training (this is probably a lost cause, but it would be funny)
• Be less hard on myself for my flaws and just keep trying to improve
• Be less lazy ;0p
• Go to bed a little earlier and get up a little earlier so I don't have to rush in the morning.

Well, I'm sure that I could come up with some more, but I think this is enough to start with. Anyone have any tips or advice for any of these things? How about any goals or accomplishments that you want to achieve? I may be a bit optimistic with my list, but as I said it is just a guideline for me to try.

I hope everyone has a great weekend! It is supposed to be overcast with possible rain all weekend, but we need rain. So, maybe I will dust off the sewing machine...;0) Happy Friday!
