Happy 2010

I've been trying to gather my thoughts on where I want to go in 2010 - what projects I need to focus on. I've come up with three things:
Pruning - cutting out the things that clutter my life
1. Each month, focus on de-cluttering one room in the house. Some will take the entire month, some a weekend. Donate books, used furniture, decorations. Organize paperwork.
2. In early Spring, clear out old landscaping in the front of the house.
3. Lose 10 pounds.
4. Cut back to 1 can of soda per day.
Sewing - Sew seeds of improvement in my life.
1. Plant 3 new trees in the yard.
2. At least once every 3 months read a book to learn something, then implement it.
3. Introduce Leah to the tradition of sewing - on Mom's machine.
4. Connection - stay in contact with the older ones - Mom and Dad's siblings.
Growing - Focus on growing spiritually, strengthening myself physically, improving my people skills.
1. Pray more - say the rosary at least once a month. Read the book of Psalms.
2. Focus on my listening skills - listen to others more, don't take over a conversation, or entertain.
3. Walk more - build my walking distance. Work on my upper body strength.
4. Professionally - focus more at work so I can accomplish more in the same amount of time.
