I've had a whirlwind of a February and March so far. Busy time at work, new clients, stepdaughter totaled a car, dealing with insurance, buying new car, and took a week long trip to the Black Hills!

Food - Improve my diet. Could be much worse. Kinda went all out during vacation, but doing better. Cut out pretty much all soda.

Reading - Push the reading with my 4th grader. He has Aspergers and has struggled in this area. I also want to set time aside to finish up books I’m reading as well as read some books out of my usual genres. Personal reading goal of two books per month. Both have been reading, although I personally slipped behind a bit. I still need to read a full book by the end of the month to stay on track with my goal.

Work - Complete my reports same week as my clients meetings. Keep email inbox organized. Organized inbox!!

New skill - I’d like to learn how to refurbish furniture. This will more than likely be done in spring/summer. I do have a dresser picked out though that I can practice on.

Save money - Finished refinancing the house. Got a head start on Christmas. Saving for December cruise/DL trip.

I didn't do 'goals' this year, except I promised myself I'd declutter some and work on some projects that are half-done. I've been creeping through looking at what others have done in case I want to do this next year, and there are some great ideas! I really like the "in case of emergency binder", so I think I'll steal that for next year Anyway, I just popped in to say thanks for the ideas

Wow, I love the progress ComicGuy!!! Keep it up, you're my inspiration to even begin a mid-year Goal List.
I'm interested to know your choices for your mini-vacay and your online course selection.

Looks like a trip to Austin TX is in the works. Also I use a site for professional developement alison.com/courses. It is free to use and my school accepts the hours with the printed course completetion. If you require actual certificates then there is a cost (a bit on the high side, IMHO) but otherwise free to use.
