January 2nd

Today is going to be my catch up day.... I have a ton of laundry to do. I am going to keep it at that... Laundry. If I try and make my goals bigger I will not get to it and then feel like I didn't get anything done. Today also marks the start of Elijah's 3rd month of life. (post with pictures on that later)

So I have three things I want to accomplish this year. First of all I want to find an orginization or something to do volunteer work. I don't know what kind of thing I would like to do. Part of me wants to get involved with something with handicapped children, or something with pregnant teenagers, or a womens shelter. I am just not sure exactly what I will persue. I may try a few different things and just figure out which one is best suited for me.

The other thing I want to accomplish this year is to start couponing again. I don't want to do it just to save money for us on food. My goal with it is to become good enough at the coupon game that I first build up a stockpile for us again. We are just now running out of shampoo, soap, razors and things like that. My ultimate goal though is to start getting enough free stuff to be able to make huge donations to food banks or organizations that need it. I am actually pretty excited about this. I know how to do the coupons so now it is a matter of figuring out how to get it where I don't pay much at all for groceries and food items. I will have to start getting my coupon fliers over the next few weeks before I can really start this. I have not couponed for the past few years so we will see how it goes. I am sure I will be a little rusty but it will come back to me eventually.

Ok well I have to quit blogging now and start this much dreaded laundry or I am not going to get anything done today..
