2023 Goals and Resolutions

Tobe Buffenbarger

Checking in with my 2022 Goals and Resolutions -

House Goals/Resolutions

  • Finish One Home Renovation Project - Haha! This was just all over the place and nothing really happened.

  • Finish Organizing My Craft Room/Library ✓ - At one point, this was organized. Now, it’s a mess again, but it’s a constant reorganization.

Life Goals/Resolutions

  • Get Back into My Treadmill Goals - Nope, but we did spend much more time outside this past year.

  • 1000 Hours Outside - There’s not way that we will ever reach 1000 hours. We managed about 400 hours this past year. I call that a big win for us, especially as I do not love being outdoors in the heat.

Reading Goals/Resolutions

  • Read 200 Books / 60,000 Pages ✓

  • Decrease my UnRead Shelf by 50 Books - Fail.

Craft Goals/Resolutions

  • Get Back into Crafting! - Nope.

  • Finish 2021 Memory Planner ✓

  • Keep Up with 2022 Memory Planner ✓

And now on to 2023…

House Goals/Resolutions

  • Organize My Craft Room/Library - Trying to find that floor again. I should also do a bit of cleanout with regards to my craft supplies.

  • Make Progress with One Home Project - We need to remove the deck and hopefully replace it this year. I also want to redo our homeschool corner.

Life Goals/Resolutions

  • Complete 52 Hikes - Instead of 1000 Hours, we’re going to focus on weekly nature hikes. I think that will help get us out and moving.

  • Add More Vegetarian Dishes to Our Rotation - With the price of groceries right now, we’re cutting back on some things. Trying to up my vegetarian and even vegan game.

  • Take Care of My Medical Issues - I will be having surgery for one thing on Monday. But I’m still hoping to take care of some other issues this winter/spring. Hoping for a less painful year overall.

Reading Goals/Resolutions

  • Read 200 Books/60,000 Books

  • Clear Off 50 Books from My UnRead Shelf

  • Skip at Least 50% of BOTM Months

Homeschool Goals/Resolutions

  • Create a Long-Term Plan for Homeschool Curriculum - I started a scope and sequence last year, but want to beef that up. I also have to get some options in mind for future curriculum (e.g. what to do after Singapore 5B?).

  • Continue to Organize the Coop, But Also Delegate for Growth - We’re into our second full year of the coop and it’s been amazing. But I have some ideas about growing our membership. I also want to focus a bit on delegating more tasks to others to allow for some breathing room for me.
