Checking in with my 2023 Goals and Resolutions

House Goals/Resolutions

• Organize My Craft Room/Library ✓

• Make Progress with One Home Project - Um… well house project really took a backseat to a lot of things this year.

Life Goals/Resolutions

• Add More Vegetarian Dishes to Our Rotation ✓

• Take Care of My Medical Issues ✓

Reading Goals/Resolutions

• Read 200 Books/60,000 Books ✓

Homeschool Goals/Resolutions

• Create a Long-Term Plan for Homeschool Curriculum ✓

• Continue to Organize the Coop, But Also Delegate for Growth ✓

And now on to 2024…

House Goals/Resolutions

• Paint the living room (and maybe playroom) - Other projects haven’t progressed as far I had hoped, and I’m oh so sick of the walls in the living room and playroom. I convinced J to paint those two rooms at least in the spring.

• Downsize the playroom - The kids aren’t playing with as many tows as they were, so I want to downsize the playroom and start the transition to study/homeschool/video game room.

Life Goals/Resolutions

• Complete 52 Hikes -We’re going to attempt this one again in 2024. I’m really trying to be more and more intentional with our outside time.

• Add More Vegetarian Dishes to Our Rotation - Adding this one on our resolution list again next year. It’s been a great experiment, but I want to do more.

• Work on a Better Budget - I really want to retool our expenses for 2024 and work out a bitter budget.

Reading Goals/Resolutions

• Read 200 Books/60,000 Books - Going with the same thing as last year.

• Clear Off 50 Books from My UnRead Shelf - Going to try again.

• Skip at Least 50% of BOTM Months - This was a great goal and I really did stick with it. If I’m not super excited about the selections, I’m going to skip that month.

Homeschool Goals/Resolutions

• Be a Leader for the Secular Homeschool Community - I want to help others in the area lead the community of secular homeschoolers. There’s not that many of us and we should be inclusive and supportive.

• Move the Coop into the Next Era - I have some dreams and plans that I would love to see come to fruition in 2024.

• Complete Another Year of Homeschooling - We’ve got some great things are going and I want to keep it up in 2024.
