So I've been thinking about goals for the coming year. I want to try to keep them fairly simple so I may actually manage to do them.
Health:
Big Goal: Lose 5% of current weight
(I lost 10% in 2017 and have managed to keep it off since May.)
Plan - Average 35k steps per week.
Minimal use of processed foods.
Water from the tap, plant milk, and tea only.
Complete the Daily Dozen at least 90% 5+ days a week. (Have a check off list on my fridge)
Financial
Big Goal 1: Fully fund both ROTH's - $12k
Big Goal 2: Reduce Grocery Spending - keep personal average to $160/month or less. (not including DH's food) *Check sidebar for explanation*
Big Goal 3: Increase EF by $3k
Personal
Big Goal 1: Complete at least 3 tasks daily before vegging at computer
Big Goal 2: Get the office organized with functional files. Put together the bookcases. Keep it that way.
Big Goal 3: Read 52 physical books.

I am not planning on doing the uber frugal challenge, however, I do want to be more transparent with my spending. I think I've gotten lax on being mindful.
So, I am going to attempt to post my spending a few days a week here - starting January 1.

CCF - There were a lot of other things I thought of too, but I knew if I made too big a list it would never happen.
I'm going to be writing these out on notecards and post in several places around the house to keep them in front of me. Maybe keep an updated grocery total on our chalkboard ...
Amber - Thanks. I've been frustrated because I've made no progress since April/May ... but at least I've mostly maintained.
Scottish Girl - I love to read, but have found that most of my reading time has been online. I miss reading actual books ...so hence, my goal.
