Major Goals
- Finish my book! (I've been working on it for over 2 years, I just need to finish it. Really.
- Stay within Budget (I'll be doing a new post on budgeting next)
- Save 10% of our income!
- Work on saving for Mr. CouponDiva's new(ish) car.
- Go back to college!
- Read 1-2 more books/month.
Family/Household Goals
- Recommit to menu planning and eating at home 6 days/week.
- Get us back on the Zone or Mediterranean style Diet.
- Get Mr. Small Man out and playing with other kiddos at least once per week.
- Take Mr. Small Man to the park/playground at least once per week (it's good exercise for me too!)
- Have Date night with Mr. Caoupondiva once a week (even if it's just a movie and snacks after Mr. Small Man goes to bed).
- Take stock of HBA and cleaning supplies and re-stock items as needed. After 2 years of buying no HBA, our stockpile has dwindled.
- Schedule house cleaning/laundry and stick to the schedule. I'm going to check out FlyLady.com, I've heard great things!
- Participate in more coupon swaps and clip-ins to obtain more coupons.
Blog/Business Goals
- Buy Domain.
- Monetize blog to defray cost of domain and pay for more giveaways. ( I promise- the site won't be over-run with ads or spam posts!)
- Commit to writing at least 7 posts per week.
- Tweet more often (I'm bad about it right now).
- Teach 1-2 free coupon classes/week.

I have a goal for 2012 - Decrease spending by 10-20% (increase savings by that amount) from 2011 levels.
ReplyDeleteNow that my kiddo is almost on his feet financially this should be doable. We still pitch in for car repairs, trips to see mom and dad 2-3x per year so he's still on our payroll for a while longer....
