2006. Hm.
Posted by Deb on Sunday January 1, 2006 at 7:34 pmThere’s been a “Five Goals” thing cruising the blog-ring. I couldn’t come up with five goals in each category (personal, work, home-ed, etc), so I’ve taken the easy route, and put it all together. Here are my five (albeit slightly late):
* Eat better, get more exercise and (thus) lose weight.
* Take more photos. I know my Flickr account was bursting at the seams for December, but I feel I’m not recording enough bits of my kids’ childhoods. And I’d like more photos of me, for them. (That’s part of my reason for #1 above.)
* Get more positive with my parenting. I felt that I was getting close to being the kind of parent I want to be, but I seem to have drifted somehow. I don’t like it. I’m going to get back on course.
* Find some work that I get paid for – preferably self-employed (but what? 
)
* Have a general re-think for each of the children, in various ways.
2005 has been a very good year for us – much better than 2004, and hugely better than 2003. Apart from a certain attempted trip in May, we’ve really had no bad bits this year. Some things which were unresolved (and stressful due to that) have been resolved, it’s been good for Scratchy work-wise (as in, he got some permanent work), we bought a house we like (which is a much better thing to do than buying one you don’t like – take my word for it), and – of course – we have a wonderful new addition to our family 
We didn’t have anything planned for New Year’s Eve, but we ended up staying with friends from Friday until today, so we celebrated the New Year with them last night. Good friends, good company, good food – not a bad way to welcome a new year
