Yes, I’m late jumping on this bandwagon because it’s taken me this long to decide on most of my goals for the year. Also, how is it that we’re an entire week into the New Year already? (For the record, I initially typed 2018 in the title so clearly my brain hasn’t caught up yet). My goals fall into three basic categories: reading, cleaning and healthy eating. Here they are:
Reading goals
- Read 100 books (Good Reads challenge goal). Of these:
- 10 should be non-fiction
- 12 should be from the BBC Big Read list
- 20 should have been on my to-read list before 2019 started
Cleaning goals
- Deep clean once per month. To include:
- Cleaning the bathrooms including mopping floors
- Cleaning the kitchen including mopping floor and cleaning the oven (bolded because I will clean that damn oven regularly if it kills me! Gah.)
- Changing bedding
- Dusting
- Hoovering, taking away recycling, etc. as needed (although I do those things regularly anyway)
Healthy eating goals
- Eat 5 or more portions of fruit and veg on at least 3 days per week
- Have nuts/fruit as snacks instead of chocolate and crisps
- A maximum of 2 cups of black tea per day
- Drink at least 2 pint glasses of water per day
My one other goal/wish/hope for 2019 is, of course, to get pregnant again and this time actually get a baby at the end of it, but that one is kind of out of my hands (thanks useless body!) and therefore doesn’t really belong here.
I won’t ask what your goals are because I feel like everyone who isn’t me actually managed to decide and post theirs before the year was a whole week old!
