With so many days to accomplish chores my short list should be easy (plus some). I have fallen a little short. The kitchen table is still a disaster and so is my bedroom. I cleaned out drawers though, they accumulate stuff at an alarming rate. Now in the basement, which is also still a disaster, I have been working on. With three dump runs this year a lot of boxes have been gone thru and eliminated, also many full boxes have been donated to the Goodwill (I have 4 grocery sacks ready to go right now) and many trunk full runs to the recycling center (it's free) with boxes of papers from schoolwork to IRS papers. Nothing has been re-packed and I did not have a garage sale (many boxes to sell). So I guess my list will have to remain in effect and be added to!
A big change for me this year is the 'no-poo' for clean hair. Surprise! my hair is very clean. Every other day is perfect, I think that it would be too drying. I use a Tablespoon of baking soda and water paste rubbed into the scalp and a Tablespoon of apple cider vinegar in a cup of warm water to rinse. I rinse well with water and let dry, nobody can tell. My hair feels good and silky, I never have trouble combing it out (it's curly). If I am having a bad hair day on the skipped day a rinsed with very warm water works well.
I have never believed in New Years resolutions, Goals are much more attainable. At New years you might rashly make a promise and then fail, this happens with regularity (promises are meant to be kept). Goals come up at any time and can be revised, life is not static and we need to be adaptable.
'To Do' list (supports Goals list) for 2011
- Sort/clean out living spaces
- Sort basement for the dump
- Re-pack anything left in basement
- Have a garage sale
