I know that I don't have a huge following.....Hello you three ;) But I think that by seeing my hopes and goals, I'll be able to motivate myself more. And you guys know that I love my lists and being able to cross things off of them.
Mr C was laughing at me because after talking about our debt payoff goals, I made a spread sheet for every month from now to 10 years out(yes 10 years) showing what each of the balances every month. (Yeah I was a little overboard) But it was so nice to see a light at the end of the tunnel. and just to clarify so that no one starts thinking we're crazy, the 10 years is for every single dollar that we owe including our trucks and mortgage! Yes we can have our house paid off in 10 years without spending more than we are right now. It was so motivating to see that.
So without further ado and in no specific order, here is my list of goals and wants, (yes, I added wants in my list also because I view them as goals also. My rule for any of the wants though is that we have to be able to pay cash for it without affecting our 10 year plan.)
Personal:
Household/Decorating:
This whole set. Wrap it up and I'll take it. I love how classic and yet how modern the chairs make it look, and they look so comfy, our family dinners always involve lots of laughing, teasing, and wine, and those chairs look like they could manage that.
Organize the sun room better. We use it for a craft room/home gym. Maybe that's why I'm less motivated to work out, it's just not fun to be in there right now. I definitely need to change that
Redo the pantry like I posted way back when. No I haven't forgotten, but Mr.C isn't gone anymore and he's not quite as for that idea.
Add on/remodel deck to wrap around back of house.
Put french doors in Dining room opening out onto said deck.
Add a shade arbor to the portion of the deck directly off of the dining room.
Landscape the yard. This is a hard one because our yard is so big, and one of the lovely benefits of new construction is the complete lack of landscaping. It's just so overwhelming.
I know I'll add things to this list, but hopefully I'll be able to start crossing some things off before that. I can't add too much more to it, we'll be running out of room in our house for things.
