But this year quite by accident D and I made resolutions, call it "what happens in bed when you can't sleep and start talking";
1) Eat less take-out - most of the time what's delivered is incorrect and I
Solutions
Eat out instead of take-out and make it a special occasion.
Spend more money on nicer things when food shopping so we can create more from scratch instead of shopping like we're still uber poor.
2) Get in a routine
Solutions
Have fixed meal times, fixed days when certain jobs get done (like a wash day) so we don't end up dashing around doing damage control in the house and a "fixed" bedtime so neither of us spend the week knackered because we just had to go to bed at midnight even though we are up at 5am.
3) Get in a work routine - up at 6am and done by 1pm suits me just fine :)
4) End the year with some savings in a saving account and not gulping at every bill that crosses the threshold
Solutions
Put 100% of my wages into a savings account starting from Feb
and finally;
Conduct 7 science experiments this year, because I'm curious as a cat and want to know how stuff works.
So sadly, that's my shameful list of "Resolutions" or just "things we should try get right this year."
I love that you came up with solutions! It's much easier to meet your goal when you have a plan. So proud of you!
ReplyDeleteNeed me to send you a zombie for one of your science experiments? Or are the science experiments for the "yet to be written cookbook"?
LOL NO ZOMBIES *shudder* hmm that's an idea ... food science
ReplyDeletewe still eat garbage, too -- even though I occasionally try to shop like a grown person. Chuckweasel's favorite meal -- no lie -- is Fish Sticks and Kraft Macaroni and Cheese. It's like a trailer park anniversary!
ReplyDeleteDon't forget to use a stick when conducting your scientifical experiments.
ReplyDeleteI try to cook one "fancy" meal a week. "Fancy" just means it's not cooked in a microwave.
