As the remnants of 2011 wash away let’s take a moment to reflect on everything we have learned through the trials of the year so that we can make a brighter 2012. I have several goals this year for different areas of my life.
Personally, I want to continue on my health trend of making healthier food choices, staying physically active and continuing to enjoy the side effects of the two by losing more weight 
I am going to try to make at least six home and personal use products from scratch with all natural ingredients. Since I have finished my bachelor’s degree I will continue my studies and start my master’s program.
Financially I have made a promise to myself to try and not purchase anything unless I know without a doubt that it is made in America! I am planting my first garden with the intention of using as little resources as possible and still getting a large return on investment.
I want to carve out a monthly date night with my son, sans cell phones, iPods and any other technologically geared devices. We will not talk about responsibilities, mistakes or anything serious that weighs us down mentally. I will encourage talk about new interests, goals, spiritual growth and support his creative, funny personality every chance I get.
Spiritually I have a desire to reach a person in my life that is purposefully trying to push me away for fear of letting go to a God that is unknown to them. I also want to increase the amount of provision boxes I give away to those that need help. And in an effort to help those families help themselves, I want to be available to help teach them how to be more frugal and provide more for their families using less resources.
My blogging goals lead me to uncharted territory outside of my comfort zone. I am starting my ebook this month. Stay tuned for details And I will be posting a single mom devotional, recipe, and frugal living post weekly for my loyal readers.
