With focus and determination, it's no joke, I am making continued progress!

Goals for 2012:
Personal:

• Lose 21 pounds and continue to eat consciously and drink 64 ozs. of water daily
• Exercise 3x/week - Through 12 weeks developing calorie-counting habit; in Week 13 I've started the Jillian Michaels 30-day Shred DVD aiming to get 30 days in before our Florida vacation
• Aim for 1# per week weight loss - lost another 4# in March, total down after Week 13 = 15 pounds

Crafts and Handiwork & Leisure:

• Improve my crochet skills, self-taught 12/1/11 - steadily working on crocheted gifts and finished a self-designed bright spring/summer scarf for ME
• Plan to make majority of gifts homemade gifts - the stash has grown to include a second afghan, 18 dishcloths, 1 towel, and a beach bag or grocery tote bag
• Enter some handiwork in the county fair, 9/2012
• Finish up UFO's in my craft stash, anything unused by December 2012 gets donated
• Read a book a month, 12 for the year - 3 of 12 done. Finished Mockingjay and have Girl With the Dragon Tattoo checked out for April

Home: Again, no progress toward redecorating and it's not time for the garden items yet

• Redecorate the livingroom - furniture, paint, decorations, framed photos
• Declutter and decorate Master Bedroom
• Plant a small garden for fresh veggies
• Plant strawberries and raspberries

Financial:
