Some of you may already know but we will be moving in May to the town where Seth preaches already. Seth had the opportunity to go full time and we felt God was pushing us in that direction. We are very excited about this change and I have made myself a few personal goals. I think this change is a perfect time to better myself in a few ways. I would like to share some of these goals with you.
2. Style School has really opened me up to different styles for my home. I would like to develop my own sense of style for my home. This flickr set by dottie angel is so inspiring and definitely one I will look back on when developing my own style!
3. For the first year of being married I was really good at keeping our place clean and picked up. I also cooked more. But since moving to this apartment I seem to have lost my groove. I want to get that back and keep the home clean. When my place is clean I tend to be more motivated. I lose my motivation a lot here because it always seems to be a mess.
4. Wear more dresses. This may seem silly to you but I think this fresh start is a good time to gain my confidence to buy and wear more dresses.

6. I would like to start and lead a women's ministry at our church. This is waaay out of my comfort zone but I feel God is wanting me to use my newfound talents for Him. I am hoping others will want to join me as well!
7. I would like to get serious about selling on etsy. I always have ideas floating around my head but I never get off my butt and do it!
8. If we end up living in a home with a yard I would really like to start a small garden. I know this is something Seth really wants to do as well. Maybe we can grow more than 3 green beans at a time so I can actually cook them for a meal! I would also like to have houseplants. It will be interesting to see if I can keep them alive!
9. Buy more second hand. I want to visit thrift and antique shops more often. Not living next to Walmart anymore will definitely help!
These are just a few things I would like to accomplish! I really can't wait for this move. I need a change bad!

You should get a kitty, they are sweet and such great company :) Also I am with you on the dress thing! It is the year to have confidence and wear cute spring dresses! Good luck with your move I hope you find a cute house to decorate! <3 Sonja

Good luck meeting your goals. I love the wear more dresses one and it's something I'm trying to do too. The wind here is horrid though and I don't want to flash people ya know?
I also like the plant a garden one and sell more on Etsy. Good luck on your move!
Yay, Carol!
You can do it all!!!!!
I'll (and I'm sure others) be rooting for you!
I looove Dottie Angel's home! I have so many of her pics saved in my inspiration file.
I love all of these goals!

Those are awesome goals! I am sure that you will achieve all of them with no problems! Where are you guys moving if you don't mind me asking? Have a wonderful day! By the way, I added your blog button and for some reason it didn't work.

great goals! good luck with all of them.
i'm so excited for you guys and your new opportunity.
what a blessing!

Carol, I wish we lived closer! These are all things that I want to do. Just yesterday I pledge to do the Dottie Angel challenge of only buying handmade or thrifted items for myself and our home! And I told Ben to please build me a couple of garden boxes so we can grow our own herbs and veggies. You are so cool! Oh yeah, you should def. lead a women's group. I did that a couple of years ago and I was really nervous at first but it was such a blessing! Talk to you soon!

Great list! Moving is always fun, too. And thrifting is of course the best!
i read about the style school classes a couple months after they started. that class seems so cool! i'm taking the indie biz class which is also a lot of fun. and i totally know what you mean about the cleaning fiasco...i'm stuck in a cleaning rut all too often!
