Goals vs. Reality

I've heard the best way to make and set goals is to write them down and share them. It encourages accountability and action....Plus, I'm all about making lists so I thought I'd share a few of my goals for 2009.

Goals for 2009 (in no particular order) vs. Reality in 2009 (in no particular order)

Make a whole honk load of money-Ok well yes, lets face it, I will make money just maybe not a honk load. But not without a lot of blood, sweat, tears, and swear words.

Go to Europe to visit the rents in the land of the Czechs and the ol mish in land of the Danes-Also definitely going to happen sometime in August

Stop having bad dreams about burning the house down while my parents are gone-Continue to dream about Mom and Dad suddenly coming home from their mission and the plants aren't watered, the lawn isn't mowed, the mail isn't brought in, all the lights are on, the door isn't locked, and the house is in complete disarray.

Qualify for the Boston Marathon in May-Drag my sorry bootay across the finish line of the Ogden Marathon in May.

Be totally hip and release my inner fashionista-Continue wearing t-shirts and jeans with sneakers. I swear some day it will be the "it" thing.

Stop killing all the house plants while my parents are gone-Water the plants maybe once a month and pray for the best.

Start making more meals-Do meals consist of canned soup, PB and J sandwiches, cereal and milk? Then yes! I will be making more meals.

Find some sort of cure for my sugar addiction-Seriously,....somebody....anybody....help me!
