New Year and New Goals

It's hard to believe but it is already the 4th of January and I have been trying to figure out some of my goals for 2009. My biggest goal is to find a new job and then continue to enjoy crafting.

Here are some goals for this year:

Monthly goals:

• make 5 cool ties soldiers
• make 2 pairs of infant pants
  
• make 2 pair of slippers for soldiers
  
• make 2 soap savers for soldiers
• make 2 headbands for soldier
• complete 2 other items for charity during the month

Yearly goals:

• Complete needlecase from Creative Festival 2008
• Complete first dragon encounter from Creative Festival 2008
  
• Knit sweater for myself (purchased yarn with Christmas money)
• Complete Camelot miniature cross-stitch from Creative Festival 2008
• Finish afghan for us (started in 2006
• Compete at the Markham Fair in October 2009
• Get yarn stash down by at least 15 pounds by December 2009
  

So these are some of the items that I would like to achieve this year and as you can see there are craft related. I have other goals for 2009 but have not posted them above. Now my other goals are:

• Do my final driving test and pass it
• Lose at least 25 pounds (30 would be better)
• Get more organized
• Take at least 2 courses job related
• Design a course for crafting

Now that I have written these items down maybe it will help me achieve some of them. I know that some are going to take some time to achieve but others shouldn't take me too long. Well better get to work on achieving some of these goals.
