What are you looking forward to about 2011?


Want to get to lots of projects I've put off for too long.
Want to learn new things.
Want to get organized & be more productive. This includes developing cleaning & cooking routines.
Clean out some clutter.
Hope to lose some weight.
DH will be away a lot so I'll have time to focus on me & what I want to do.
And just making it through 2011 & getting to 2012!

Are you all wanting to stay in 2010?

So far for 2011...

Ds 19 and ds20 are going with dh to China in about 3 weeks
Hopefully my dh wont be travelling so much, but if he does its just more ff miles for Disney
We will go to Disney in May and December
Hopefully, ds23 will be offered a full time job at his internship. We asre praying for that.

Personally I might have to have some stomach surgery, we will see, that may be determined Feb lst.

I get to experience the wonderful joys of cancer such as:
3 endocrinologist visits
3 blood tests
2 oncologists visits
2 more shots and a different blood test
Daily pills etc.
I just thank God I am alive. Each day is a blessing

House wise:
We need:
New living room furniture
New Roof
New kitchen appliances
Lawn mower repair
New microwave

We will prioritize these as needed, one at a time.

in 2011, i want to...

1. (and most importantly) get a job outside the home
2. learn how to clean my house properly, i never know where to start and feel completely overwhelmed (mom worked, we had housekeepers)
3. try to convince my mom to seek some mental help
4. get back on track and lose the 5-10 pounds i've gained.

I'll probably end up editing my list as you've already given me some ideas.

 

[lakelandgal70]

Hmmmm let me see....In no particular order I look forward to

1.Traveling several times this year

2. Seeing a new Dr in another state. And hopefully this will be the last one to get me well.

3. Want to take up painting. I don't mean walls. Well hopefully we will get to that as well but painting on canvas.

4. Keeping up on my walking and swimming.

5. Learning a new language. German and or Latin.

6. Possibly going back to school but not sure what for. Maybe painting??

7. Becoming a Catholic! Going through RCIA classes right now and they will end during Easter season. I am really excited about this one!

Can't think of anything else lol

Praying you get your kidney!

I just want to make it through the first six months of 2011. DH will still be working out of state through the week and only be home on weekends. All his traveling makes me nervous.

 

[nmmom95]

Thanks NewCrew42 & Aristocat Fan!

AF...I hope things work out with your DH's job, too!

 

[Singleminnie]

I am looking forward to a great 2011~

I am looking to move with my DDs to Florida
New job in Florida
New vehicle
Want a better relationship with my ex
Lose 20 to 25 lbs
Meet a new "male friend" (put that off until our move)
Wishing better health and weight loss for my mother

I hope the economy continues to improve and unemployment numbers drop!

 

[Feralpeg]

I'm finally retiring...for real! I retired in 2004, but can't seem to stay that way. Since retiring, I've worked at all sorts of things (taught school, worked for Disney, made gift baskets, etc.). I'm done. My plan is to do only those things I want to do. I will be working on my novel, scrapbooking, reading, working on my geneology project and spending more time enjoying all that Florida has to offer.

DD will be going to England to work on her masters at Leeds University. That scares me a little and I know I will miss her, but it is a great opportunity for her. If I'm lucky, I'll be visiting her in England.

2011 brings my husband and I to a move. Not any distance - we just want to down-size our house. It's a great big beautiful house, but it's too big. Hopefully, we can sell this one for the price we need, and buy something smaller in the same market. (NOT looking forward to the de-cluttering!)

I hope that all of you with health problems have better news in 2011.

My wish is wishing that everyone gets their wish.The world needs more happy people.

 

[scottishduffy]

Will be praying that you get your wish..

For me?

Spending time with my family and friends..
Getting some health issues resolved..
Spending lots of time doing the things I enjoy the most..
Trying to gain weight!!

 

[DisneyScraps]

i look forward to a new year every year as a fresh start. I look at it like a fresh slate and I get to change whatever I want. I always try something new.

This year means possibly a move that I have wanted to make for years. It means that I get one more year with my darling child and the love of my life.

It means that I will be volunteering a little and I have resolved that the business I am in is failing. I have a new idea and I am going to run with it. Work or don't work I am going to try!

C.Ann, i've got about 40 spare pounds (including the 5-10 i've gained over the past 8 months) that i would gladly give you, if possible!

 

[Planogirl]

I will quit my current job! I'm so excited about this that I daydream about it regularly. I'm lucky to have a job but I'm so miserable and bored and frustrated every day. I KNOW that there is something better for me.

I'm looking forward to losing more weight, finally adopting new cats (reading Dewey's new book is finally shaking me out of my funk), returning to the Ozarks and doing something meaningful that helps in some way. I will figure out that last one.!

My best wishes to everyone. I hope that all your dreams come true.

I hope that this is your year too!

I am hoping (and going to make happen to the best of my ability) that 2011 brings

less debt, less weight, more happiness, better managed health for both me and my dh, and a sense of accomplishment.

To the house:
My utility room repaired so I can get a washer and stop going to the laundry mat

Fresh coat of paint on the walls
