Happy New Year everyone. Most Blogs are talking resolutions and goals for 2013. I'm taking a page out of the ubber impressive Tonia over at Racing With Babies and making a "To Do" list. I think it fits more in line with my thinking. If I have must complete goals they happen. If I say take it day by day...it might happen.
My 2013 To Do List:
Financial:
Pay off all credit cards and stop repeating history (we are on a payment plan to get this done by August!)
Keep $1000 in savings for emergencies and save an additional $3000 for investments this year
Spend only $100 a week on clean meals for the family
Spend only $50 a week on eating out (our main source of entertainment)
Keep a tally of all money saved each week through coupons or sales and put the savings in vacation fund (So far: $2.97!)
Keep all found money or store miss-pricing (a terrible habit at our local stores) money in a "found Money" Jar...just to see
Fitness:
Obtain my Crossfit Olympic Lifting Certification in March
PR my 5k time (currently 28:45)
Run a 10k to create a baseline time
Run a Half Marathon under 2:00 (current PR 2:12)
Body weight lifts on all Olympic lifts and bench press (deadlift is done PR 250)
Compete in a CrossFit Competition
Abs!
4 days a week Crossfit
3 days a week Running
Nutrition:
Complete a true Whole30 Program
Maintain clean eating 80% of the time
Create 30 clean and quick dinners
Home and Family:
Declutter and Organize using this Calendar
Create a meaningful family activity once a month
Create a Mommy/Daughter date for each kid per month
Date night once a month with Mr Dad
Write a fun or special thing that happened each day on the calendar so we can read them at the end of the year
I want this year to have organization, to have purpose. This year I want to be RESPONSIBLE for our accomplishments...or failures
This year I am adopting the word RESPONSIBLE as my word. Many people pick a word to give purpose to their goals or focus efforts. I'm joining that crowd.
So, have you gotten busy with a "to do" list?
How detailed do you get?

Whew! These sound like great goals! I didn't really set any specific goals, but I do feel all the "starting anew" stuff rubbing off on me... so I have been making my own morning drinks (to curb going out) and keeping things clean... for now.
You've got lots of great goals for 2013. It sounds like it's going to be a wonderful year for you guys!
