Resolution Recap

Yep, it's that time of the week again... When I sit down and evaluate how I'm doing on the Resolution/Goals/Wishes&Dreams/One Little Word for 2012...

Reclaiming Order... not so sure, but I'm trying. I'm scheduling stuff, and trying to plan.
Project List... Nope, haven't touched a project this week
Reclaim the Attic/library area... Nope, haven't done a thing, except talk about needing to get busy, cuz Tallon & Ryan need to use some of the space for recording a band up there, in the next few weeks. That's motivation, at least!!!
Health and Fitness... Went to gym 3 days this week. Walked 3.2 miles, 2.78 miles, and 1.2 mile walk & biked 1.5 lines across the monitor{no clue how far that is but it took quite a while}
Looking for inspiration in new places... well if Pinterest counts, then I've been looking!!! And I've been reading lots of blogs and surfing Instagram.
Reclaim my desire to create... I'm working on it.
Continuing Project Life... Yep week 4 is finished, and worked on One Little Word album, so kinda regular scrapbooking, a little.
Blog at least 3-5 times per week... Yep!
Take some art classes... One Little Word~I've finished the January assignments. And I signed up for Script School this week.  {Wanna learn more about Script School, check it out at  lovelife.typepad.com  ~Kal Barteski's blog, she is an awesome artist and has offered a class online!!} Pretty cool for sure.  Had to order the supplies on line, cuz I couldn't find anything around here!! So I will officially start the class next week, I have watched some of the videos. Hopefully I'll have some pics of my work/progress to post next week.
Take better pictures... well I did take several pics this week.  Having Lyric{the new camera purse} around is very handy, I whipped out my camera today when I saw a cool looking landscape, that I would normally not have been able to capture cuz my camera would have been home, or I would have felt weird taking pictures in that moment.
Sense of adventure... well I did get a tattoo this week, does that count. I stood in someone's front yard and snapped a couple pics, that's stepping out of your comfort zone, for sure!
Control over financial situation... Nope, well kinda, maybe! Bought a cool new wallet and painting supplies.  Bought my daughters barely used laptop {so she could get a new MacBook} instead of new one. I can afford the payments on this laptop, within my personal "allowance" budget. So it won't take money from household budget.  I have NO money saved up this year, so still not doing great, but I have a list of items I'd like to purchase this year and have gotten a couple things handled, so that counts for something, I guess!!
Time management skills... ahh, not bad I suppose.  Could definitely work on this!! Been slacking on household stuff, but haven't missed a single appointment yet!
I've added another item to my list for 2012; My goal is to set aside time to visit with people that I don't see often enough... talked with my brother, Ryan about going together to visit my G'pa at the nursing home. I got a schedule and planned the trip for Wednesday {Can't manage the trip alone yet, but that's a whole nother story, for a nother time} And talked to husband, Ryan about visiting his G'ma at her nursing home.  And I talked to my dad for a long time Saturday.  He actually called me, but still, we talked for a long time.

I'm now trying to decide if I should continue with the "recap" every week.  On one hand it keeps me accountable on a weekly basis.  But on the other hand, it could get very boring for you, the reader, having to read this every week. I could do the "recap" on a monthly basis, but I might forget the stuff I've done if I wait that long.  Maybe you don't want to read it at all.  Give me some feedback...
