wanna set myself some goals and writing them down may make them more real than just "airy-fairy" thoughts in my head.
might make me more accountable to myself as well.

- go to bed earlier - no more lounge lizard or computer "creature-of-the-night". i love reading and i should go to bed earlier and read.
- spend more time doing things with mark and the kids - i get so worked up in having dinner cooked and on the table, the washing hung up and the house tidy (well as tidy as the Pratten house gets), etc, etc that i miss all the games they play and the fun they have.
- take more photos with me in it (a wide-angle lens may be called needed for this little goal) - mark commented last night that i am in hardly any of the photos we have taken over the past few years
- get more organised - the frantic pace at which i do things is because i don't get myself organised enough - the family feels frantic too and tempers get frayed and hurtful things are said
- get my scrap space organised and get scrapping - i spend so much time looking at what others have done (and that can be both inspiring and frustrating) and i am sure that i can scrap the way i want if i just give myself some time
- stop buying scrapping stuff until my stash gets to a more manageable level (might even be able to afford a Canon Rebel if i stop spending money on scrapping stuff)
- start to get serious about losing weight - go to the gym on a regular basis, start back walking, eat the "right" foods and start feeling good about who i am
- not to let the thoughtless actions and words of others upset me so much - i can't make people like me and i refuse to be someone i'm not, just to get people to like me - here I am....warts/hairy armpits/sad times and all....like it or lump it people - i may not be as trendy or talented or "with it" as some people but all in all i think i am a good and caring person - what a boring old world we would live in if we were all like the same
- be more tolerant of people - only to a point though - the days of people taking advantage of my good nature and kindness are over - "fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice - shame on me"
- be thankful each and every day for the things i have in my life - the love of my beautiful family, a roof over my head, food on the table, nice and reliable cars to drive, good health and the love of a few close friends
- and finally as a dear friend told me not so long ago - remember to breathe
these are my goals
*message to self*
come back and read these on a regular basis and strive to acheive them
happy times for one and all tomorrow

Now, go print them out and stick them on the fridge. That way, you can refer to them every day.
Great goals and quite achievable.
I have to admit I'm guilty of some of the things you've mentioned, too. eg too much computer time, no time to play with the kids, etc.
Hugs, Marie xo
Great list Shazz, could use some of those myself.
My gosh Shazz, have you been reading my mind or what?!! I seriously need to do all the same things!! I might print it out for myself actually!LOL
Chris.
Wow Shazz, I could write the identical goals list. Good luck achieving them and a biig fat raspberry to anyone who says mean stuff.;)
