Well lets start off with this...... I don't usually make New Year resolutions per say but this year I did create a list of tasks or "to do's" that need to get accomplished. So without further ado here is the list. The first on the list will tell you why I may not have time for regular blogging.
My 2010 To-Do List
- Get a job.
- Spend at least 4 hrs each day doing something towards getting a job.
- Purchase clothes for work.
- Create our 2010 Budget and stick to it. Find ways to save more money.
- Exercise daily and eat healthier.
- New Transmission for the Buick Rendevous.
- Window fixed on Mercury.
- Piano repaired and tuned (as of today, the peddle maneuver thing broke)
- Purchase New Computer (ASAP-ours is a dinosaur and is wreaking havoc, causing great stress and wasting valuable time.
- Get taxes done ASAP.
- Find and take class on digital photography.
- Copy all pictures from computer to a CD.
- Plan trip to Arizona to see kids and grandkids.
- Plan trip to Texas to visit Bill's parents.
- Crochet at least 2-3 aphgan's this year.
- Practice piano daily.
- Study sunday school lesson earlier in week and find ways to improve teaching.
- Order credit report and find ways to improve credit score. (credit history really sucks since my divorce)
- Find out why the heck I still have not received my portion of my ex's retirement as stated in divorce settlement now going on 2 years. What a joke!
- Begin organizing and scrapbooking pictures .
Well that just about covers it. Just by looking at my top 9 items, you can see why I need a job. Since moving to Montana I have not had a job and have enjoyed staying home and being able to do what I have wanted. The job market is still a little scary. There are lots of people competing for the jobs that are available. So we will see. I am looking for a part-time job and I have extensive experience in many areas.
So this week all I have been doing is updating my resume and applying for jobs, as well as starting on that budget thing. This all takes time and that is why I have been so busy and quiet from blog world, and why I feel like a blog slacker.

Wishing you much luck in the job hunt--hope the search is a short one! :) To change your blog post title font and others, I used one of the tutorials at www.thecutestblogontheblock.com
Check under blog secrets. That's how I have learned to do a whole bunch of customization for my blog.
Good luck to you! I wouldn't want to have to be looking for a job.
You have some pretty lofty goals. I think they are good and you'll do great.
Sherrie, it sounds like you are going to have a busy year ahead of you, that is quite a list. If you don't have a program on your computer for putting pictures on a CD, I would highly recommend Picasa3 I have it and just love it. I recently added the Windows Photo Gallery update and use it in conjunction with Picasa3. I to have been lax on updating my blog.
Good luck finding a job! I will be thinking of you.
Wow, you have a lot of things to do this year!! Good luck on the job front. And I love the idea of practicing the piano daily. Too bad it's not high enough on my priority list to actually do :)
Good luck in your search for a job. You do have many talents and skills that will help you in your search. Sounds like many lofty goals for you this year. Keep working hard. Love ya
I like the "plan a trip to see the kids and grandkids." I vote that be your priority. The other stuff just get done in the order you think of their importance.
Can't replace family. Good luck!

Good luck Sherrie!! I loved the list. It forced me think about all the things that need to get done, repaired, thrown out, and replaced in my house. I do love that you are going to take a digital photography class. You will have so much fun! Take care and go get em'.
