new year, new post

I have simple desires and I'm not a very ambitious person. While this admittedly sometimes has a negative side [ie. the daily state of my house], it really works for me when it comes to the first day of a new year and all of the ever optimistic resolution making that often goes along with it. Some may call it aiming low - I call it setting myself up for success.

Goals/resolutions/fingers-crossed hopes for 2019:

  • Cook some napa cabbage
  • Lotion my hands more
  • Easily slide another human being out of my uterus
  • Write another post before May
  • Teach a 4-year-old to wipe his own bottom
  • Eat at a new restaurant
  • Read 100 mediocre books
  • More spaghetti nights
  • Let Jason dust the house once this year
  • Teach 1-year-old to say something. Anything. 
  • Resist buying more wrapping paper

Stretch goals for 2019:
  • Transition from hand washing dishes to using a dishwasher
  • Trick my kids into liking eggs
  • Increase my showered-to-unshowered days ratio
  • Embrace the present
  • Focus on gratitude
goodbye 2018 - hello year of how-is-it-almost-2020
