goal list

the school year is in full swing so that means i have a constant, running to-do list.  items get crossed off, but i never actually finish the list until the end of the school year.  that's what i hate and love about my career... i love that there's always work to be done and the work is constantly changing, yet sometimes i wish i had the type of job that ended at 5:00 pm and work stayed at work.

this year i decided i needed to set more personal goals during the school year.  i want to make more time for myself.  thus, i have made a goal list for the first quarter of school.

here it goes:
   


 1. read a book
over the summer i read.  a lot.  i forgot how much i loved reading.  currently, i'm trying to finish little bee.  it's a great read about two women. 



 

2. sew another skirt.  
i loved the process of making the above skirt.  i want to make another one, but this time try and get a more accurate fit for my body.



3. continue to work out and lose at least 4 pounds.
i know, i know.  it's a pretty small goal considering there's 9 weeks in a quarter, but i figured i should make it small enough to achieve so i won't get discouraged if i don't succeed!




4. blog and photograph life more consistently.


do any of you regularly set goals?  if so, what are some of your goals?  how long do you set your time frame?  i would love to hear your goals and ideas.
