New Year, NO New Me.

I'm not a huge fan of the typical New Year, New Me facebook posts and pictures. I don't feel the need to change my whole self but gently remind myself to work on things that should be done every day of every year. No Jan 1st resolution needed.

Be Healthy: As in taking care of myself better than I do. Putting better food into my body and making more time to work out even if its 15 mins a day with the toddler climbing up my back. Notice this has nothing to do with looking good but rather feeling good. This is for longevity, I want to live to see great grandchildren.

Time for friends and family: I need to use my time as a SAHM better, and put in more effort to spend my spare time with friends and family even if it is a few hours at a time.

More Patience: This by no means is a new goal but a reminder all day every day, every month, every year, since becoming a parent.

Time for my Significant other: Make it a point to plan out some dates with him instead of making him do it. and I'd love for us to have an adult night once a month if possible. I am fine with our free night consisting of take out and a redbox movie. It is important to spend that time. I also will stay off my phone unless it pertains to our baby during our time together.

Going Back To School: I can't guarantee I will be going full time, or at all by the end of the year but I would at least like to get all of my ducks in a row to go back by December of next year. I know that is a long time and I'm home all day so why not just do it especially if it is online classes? I want to make sure that I will have the time to study and do well on top of doing many of the mommy son things I enjoy doing so much. I want to make sure I can fit everyone and everything in and not have my son or boyfriend be on the losing end of the stick. Chances are I'll take a couple courses and pick up more when my precious goes to nursery school. I have to finish school, I want to finish school.

Read more books: I love to read and need to read more books this year, and that is that.

So there you have it my tiny to the point list of goals for 2014. Easy, doable, nothing overwhelming or something that seems to be impossible.
