DH went to his companies annual general meeting and they had a speaker there that wanted everyone to set a goal with a reward and conseqence and he's apparently going to check up on everyone (what a mad man lol)..
So I decided to set one for myself since DH has one about writing another article for a magazine.. anyone else want to join in? It can be about anything. I thought it would be interesting to see what people come up with.. Mine is to be 76kg or under by Daniels bday (10 June). The reward is a new pair of jeans that actually fit me and the consequence is I get no sanity money for a month if I don't do it. So that's about 3kg to loose |

oooh I've got 2,
I want to get some of my writing published in the next twelve months. If I do, I can buy myself a laptop or a guitar (see below) if not, I step down form my editing job of our PC newsletter (a 36 page magazine for our members published bi monthly) I started guitar lessons today. My friend, who has been learnign for 6 years is starting me off cos lessons are very dear, so I want to see if I like it first. If I can stick to it for 6 months and learn a couple of songs, I can upgrade from my cruddy 1000 year old loaner guitar and get a decenter one and pay for some lessons... Or I admit defeat and realise that I will never rock out again...and grow up somewhatr and leave my rocker leanings ina shed somewhere. ------------- The Honest Un PC Parent of 2, usually stuck in the naughty corner! :P |

Haha I play the electric and its fun!
Hmm my goal could be preggers by the end of the cycle with a reward of maternity clothes shopping or a consequence of another month of mad crazy constant BDing???
Its actually a good idea though so I'll go and have a proper think and come back coz I like goals... -------------
