neadodsI'm not even going to look up last year's resolutions; I know the general parameters and I know how little I fit them.
Maybe the problem was that the parameters were so vague. So this year, there's an agile board and a series of specific tasks with definable goals:
BEDROOM:
- declutter to the point that the floor is clear and there are no piles on flat surfaces
- clothes to be gone through; off-season to be stored in basement and non-fitting to be donated
KITCHEN:
- cabinets to be painted, items within to be gone through, organizing bins/shelves/etc. to be added. New hardware
- "dining area" - remove current furniture, add buffet and shelving
- Hang shelves by refrigerator
BATHROOM:
- vanity repaint, add drawer pulls, restore missing door
- touch up wall paint where assd other work has scuffed/pulled it away
LIBRARY:
- winnow books in shelves
- organize book collections
- declutter floor
- put console table in; move desktop from bedroom to library
LITTLE FREE LIBRARY
- set up far more organized system for moving books in and out and collecting them for the Book Thing
LIVING ROOM:
- Cookbook shelves: paint fronts with blackboard paint, winnow collection
PERSONAL:
- accomplish "The Walk" exercise program
- clinic minimum 6 times
- reduce debt by 3/4 if not pay off
KITCHEN GUILD:
- attend minimum 6 times
- assemble basic wardrobe
FANDOM:
- help run Scintillation of Scions
- help run Watson's Tin Box formal dinner
- Attend/panelist at 221BCon, ChicagoTARDIS
- deliver minimum 3 essays (1 written and needing typed ASAP, 1 due mid-Feb, 1 due August)
Those are the goals within my power to achieve. I believe that they are achievable within a single calendar year.
... and if this time I have the discipline to do it, I can FINALLY turn back to spending more time in 2015 on what I WANT do do and not what I HAVE to get done!
