Weekly 2016 Goal Update = New Goals

The past couple weeks have been super busy and kinda crazy. Since the middle of March we have only had one weekend when we didn’t have something to do, and we ended up going to see the Amish :)  
We've had doctor visits in Little Rock, Easter, Landscaping the Front Yard, Isaac’s Christening, visiting the amish, my friend’s Gender Reveal, and Mother’s day. If I ever get s chance to sit and type I will update y'all on everything. 
But for now I decided to update my Yearly Goal’s. We have completed some of them and decided others just needed to be updated. 
So far we finished goals 2 and 5 and are part way through goals 3 and 4. 
Goals are that, goals, so if things change we need to reevaluate them.  

Old Goals
  1. Complete the 2016 Declutter challenge. - I’m still decluttering but not really focusing on the numbers, its just too much to keep up with. 
  2. Have the following things finished when Isaac arrives.
    • I still need to finish hanging art on the walls in the Master Bedroom.
    • Secure speaker wires, so Roomba stops trying to eat them. 
    • Make sure birthing boxes are ready!
    •  Rehang laundry room shelves.
  3. Finish the following projects by end of year.
    •  Clean out the Garage
    • Cut down trees in back yard… Finally.
    • Re-gravel paths.
  4.  Pay off some of our debt by end of year. 
    • Pay of Credit Card #1 – 
    • Pay off Credit Card #2 - 
    • Pay off half of Student loan #1
  5.  If God sees fit, have Isaac at home.
  6. Survive the first year with Isaac. - This has turned out to be so easy it doesn't need to be a goal. Isaac is the sweetest little guy, it is so much fun to have him around. 
  7. Eat more meals from scratch, made with local foods.
  8.  Keep making the house less toxic. - We have switched out our cleaning supplies to the least toxic options, so now we are shifting gears and focusing on using less plastic and creating less waste. 
  9. Get to and Stay within a healthy weight and get in better shape.
  10. Special Secret Goal - Still working on this, but every step forward is met with a step back :(
