I am endeavouring to be more structured and goal oriented in my life. I know I need a map to get there, so I've signed up with Donna Lingard on A Creative Challenge.
Below are her exercises for Week 1. I don't even know if I can answer some of these. My life seems so simple.........okay, here goes.
1. Magic Moments of 2009

Talking to Sammy about things which really bother him.

I've kept my goal of a fairly personal nature. I will always give my best to my children and husband and that's always a given. These goals are for my own personal well being and my own sense of growth. I know that looking after myself only turns me into a better wife, mother and all round person. The more I give myself the more I have to offer.

Jenny this is incredibly amazing you have some wonderful ideas here, and have done brilliantly, putting them up on your blog. We will hold you to them hahaha! Go girl...My wish for you is that you can Create Achieve and Live these Dreams now and always....donna
Hey Jen, this is brilliant .. you have put your intentions out there. You had such a valid point too, that you need to do things for you so you could then be the best person for everyone else. That is so true. Well done for setting your goals, I have mine written and I am so fired up ready to tackle this year. Lisa xx
Well done! I need to get mine to a stage where I can post them on my blog, too! Go for it! Jo
