Goals

Last night we talked about goals. Our personal goals and family goals. I think we came up with a couple of good ones to start working on. For example I want to finish a 10K by this time next year. Corey would like to be done with school within his 5 year goal. As a family we would like to have a decent savings account within 10 years.

I also want to make a 23 things to do when I am 23 list by my birthday and start knocking them off. Any ideas?

Am I Type A?

I decided to take a test. I was a little worried that I may possibly be that type of person people are a little afraid of. (The fact that I worry about that had me worried too)

I found out I'm in the middle but more on the A type side. Here's what the test said about me:

You seem to be in the middle between the Type A and Type B personality. In this case, the middle ground is good. Your attitude to life is more of the "smell the roses" kind and you know how and when to relax. Nonetheless, you realize that picking up a challenge and competing a little bit for your place in the sun can add some spice to your life. The equilibrium is important, so don't let your hostile, aggressive, and competitive alter ego take over too often. Generally, you are easy to be around, and people tend to feel relaxed and comfortable in your presence. Yours is a very healthy attitude towards life.

The equilibrium is important, so don't let your hostile, aggressive, and competitive alter ego take over too often.

That's why people should be afraid of me. I make people feel relaxed and comfortable in my presence and then I attack them with my hostile, aggressive, and competitive alter ego.

Be aware that my Type A side has problems with time, money, and dirt.

You've been warned.

Date Night

My goal is to have a date night every Friday. If not Friday then once a week. I'm not picky about these dates either. Spending little to no money and having dinner as a picnic in the living room while watching a movie is perfectly fine with me. (This is my plan for tonight's date.)

Lately we haven't been great at planning a date or even planning an evening together. Yes, we are together every night but life sometimes gets in the way. Soon we are too behind in homework, work, and chores to slow down for an activity together.

Tonight is girls' night and I was starting to get a little bummed about it since tonight is the one good night this week to have a date. No worries since Super Hubby Mr. H is to the rescue. I will get home from work and we'll go to the gym together, followed by girls' night, and back for dinner and a movie with the hubby. Love it!

Remember to slow down every once in a while. Have any good date night ideas for you and the hubby?
