Settin' Me Some Goals

I need me some goals. I 've gotten slack since becoming a mom. Eddie is a GREAT excuse for not cleaning the bathroo, emptying the catbox, reading, etc...

Now, don't get me wrong, there are certainly days when Eddie just needs me and I am absolutely cannot get anything done, but those days are far fewer than I let on. ;)

My goals will be general, not very specific. Getting specific can also be an excuse for me to procrastinate. Are you seeing the theme here? I am a HORRIBLE procrastinator. When I was in college I used to clean my dorm room in an effort to put off studying.

So... here are my very general goals:

Read more. I usta could read a whole novel in one day, now I am lucky if I read a novel a year.

Be more social. I am turning into a hermit crab. I like people, but I am kinda shy and I stink at initiating get-togethers and the like. And the fact that I HATE talking on the phone doesn't help me plan any outings.Because I hav virtually no interaction with real, live people aside from Ed and Eddie, I am turning into a crotchety old crab.

Make more of an effort to tend to the house and cook better meals.

Now, let's see if I actually do any of these things.
