MY TOP 10 (of a different sort!)

I've decided that as a reference to look back on at the end of this year, I am going to make myself an anger/motivation must-do list! It's something that I *hope* I will complete by the end of 2008, but I also hope that it's something that will help me move along and get out of this funk. And me, being a orderly, list kind of girl, what better way than to have a list, right??! ______________________________________________________________

1. Yes, the dreaded two words ~ WEIGHT LOSS. As mentioned before, I am not happy with the weight that I am at; making me feel much more worse about myself. So, I started my diet and exercise on Tuesday and I am feeling good about this choice. Realistically, I would like to say that by the year's end I have lost about 60 pounds, but I would really like to lose over 100. I know the latter won't happen, but this is my list!! LMAO!
   
2. I would like to scrapbook more! I have 2 albums that I really need to either get started on or finish up. I made one for Quinn and I have bought one for Peyton, but haven't had the ambition to even start that one. I have another scrapbook that I am combining all of the trips and other fun times into and I really want to get our New York City trip into that one. If I can say that I have the fun book and Peyton's almost done by the end of the year, then I will feel much more productive!
   
3. HAHAHAHA!!! I found this highly amusing as yes, you guessed it; I have some Irish blood in me!! And if you haven't guessed what this is, it's a doormat. Yes, I would like to NOT be a doormat for people to wipe their shitty shoes on. 'Nuff said!
   
4. Yup, I sure would also like a backbone.**SIGH**
   
5. I guess the last 2 are tied together ~ I want to be the type of person that can be brutally, but tactfully, honest. I think that I want to be this so that I will no longer become someone that will roll over while someone treats me unfairly. I would like to say that by the end of the year that I have spoken back to said people at least once.
   
6. I want to say that by the end of the year that I am the TRUE me.
   
7. By the end of the year, I want to say that I have been to 2 different places. Preferably, one in Canada and one in the US.
   
   
8. I hope that at least more than a quarter of our debt is paid off by the end of this year.
   
9. I would like to be off of my anti-depressants by the end of the year.


10. I would like to say that by the end of the year, my actual to-do list for around the house is done. I mine as well start off small if I'm going to tackle this list.
