The Stevens Family

So, I'm a little late...but I've been under the weather a bit and sitting in front of the computer just didn't sound like much fun.
Anyway, its the time of year for resolutions. I think this is the first year I've actually given the whole list making process some serious thought, maybe because I've grown up a bit the last couple of years and I have higher expectations of the years to come.
The first list deals with the house. Its pretty big, but its also pretty basic. I didn't really want to go into too much detail because it would have been depressing. Basically its a list of everything we want to accomplish this year on the house.

And of course there is my personal list. Woohoo. I'm hoping that if I share it, I'll be more obliged to keep to it.

• Lose 30 pounds (this should have happened LAST year)
• Get my real estate license (this also should have happened last year)
• Get a job. Don't get me wrong, I love being a stay at home mom, but a girl needs to get out of the house sometimes.

I'm pretty sure there was more, because I was thinking about it a lot. I just never sat down to get it all down on paper. So maybe I'll just add to this list as I think of things.
