In 2009 I plan to figure out a schedule and really stick to it. That darn schedule has been in the back of my head all year long in 2008, and I really think that if I could just come up with a plan, I could have a very productive year. So .. some daily goals .. 

#1 Take dogs for a walk first thing in the morning. I already roll out of bed to let them out, I just need to re-train myself to throw on some clothes and go with them. I figure this would be a great way to start the day, a little bit of exercise for both me and the pups. 

#2 Limit time in front of the computer. I’ve realized I’m very very productive from 8am til noon. After that, my energy crashes and I can’t concentrate on anything. So .. I end up mindlessly surfing, and sometimes I get caught in that for hours. So, it I can make a real effort to focus on ‘computer’ work from 8-12, then giving myself a break for the afternoon, I’ll be much more productive. 

#3 Bring my shopping bags to stores other then Publix. I’m doing really well with bringing my bags to Publix. Hanging them on the door to the car was such a great idea, they’re always in my face. However, if I make a run out and don’t plan on stopping at Publix, I don’t grab the bags. So .. I want to bring the bags with me everywhere, the pet store, joanns, walmart .. etc. 

#4 Prepare food when I bring it home .. Rachel Ray style. Wash, cut and wrap back up as best as you can. It doesn’t matter if I buy celery and carrots every week, I dont end up eating them unless they’re cut up and easy to grab. So .. I plan on chopping veggies into small snack sized packs (in tupperware, not baggies) right after I get back from the store.
