2007 Goals

Ok, so I 've done the New Year resolutions thing several times in the past, and they never quite worked out. So this year, 2007, I am just going to set some goals.

Spiritual

1. Be in the Word more (I am going to try to read thru the Bible in a year.)
2. Pray more!

Financial

1. Pay off Honda.
2. Pay off at least 1 credit card!

Lifestyle/Health

1. Continue with Weight Watchers.
2. Exercise more.

Stash Management

1. Complete at least 2 UFO's(*) before starting anything new.
2. Knit from my stash as much as possible.
3. Spin more (more yarn incoming to knitting stash, while nicely decreasing fiber stash.)

I think those are realistic goals. A lot of these I have been doing for a while now anyway - just a matter of continuing forward, some of them like paying off debt - I will be a little more agressive at it.

Saturday morning I was in a little funk, didn't want to knit, didn't want to read, or watch TV, so I did a little stash managment. You know, those times where you go through what you have, make a list of UFO's(*), put all your needles in one spot, consolidate, ...etc, etc. It was actually somewhat cathartic and relaxing. I now have a bag that is just UFO's, a bag for sock yarns, and a bag for homespun. Of course, by the time I really go into it, I realized that I forgot just how much I have.

Now the good thing is that I have projects in mind for 95% of my stash. I just need to get to them, (after finishing previous projects, of course) and not buy more! (Easier said than done, I know!) :-)

(*) For non-knitting readers - UnFinished Objects! :-)

Cheers!
