I thought that I had a list of goals for 2011, but aside from the house list, I guess I didn't. That's OK, because there's a first time for everything! Here are my goals for 2012. I tried to keep them simple and not give myself too many, because goals can be overwhelming and I wanted to accomplish something! So, without further ado, my goals!
1. Make 13 payments to the mortgage and student loans.
2. Buy new furniture for the family room.
3. Get to my goal weight.
4. Get a promotion at work.
5. Blog (decent posts) regularly.
6. Get off my medication.
7. Participate in the 52 Letter Challenge again (and keep track of the number of letters I write!)
8. Go home for a visit.
9. Take more pictures.
10. Finish my wedding scrapbook! Also, get up-to-date on the day-to-day pictures.
11. Cross stitch 1 stocking.
12. Fully fund our emergency fund (goal: $10,000)
What are your goals for 2012?





I'm a 27 year old, newly married, newly living in Washington, librarian trying to find a job in a library. Meanwhile I'm working as a office assistant while I figure out how to live my new life as a wife.
Geoff, my wonderful, caring husband works with computers and, in his free time, plays with video games, lounges on the couch and cooks with sourdough.
Clarabelle and Hermione are our babies! Hermione, who came to Megg as a kitten, loves playing with fur mice and bottle caps. Clarabelle's hobbies include sleeping, lying in the sun and playing with straws. 
Geoff and Megg met through a mutual friend and spent 4 years dating long distance. They were finally able to live in the same zipcode after what seemed like forever when they got married on January 2, 2010! Soon after they bought a house and have been enjoying the Pacific Northwest together while being both newlyweds and new homeowners!
