30 DBC: Day 13♥

Todays post is about my goals. I am taking it to mean more of the long term type of goals. If it were short term, Id start with something like cleaning out the kids rooms or something :) My first and main goal its to develop and maintain my relationship with God. I was watching a Carlos Mencia show today, and there was a joke in there that just about killed me from laughing but it was SO true! He had made some crude joke about the Pope (it was funny, but I wont repeat it, lol) and someone boo'd him. After that he told the person who boo'd him that at least he knows his religion well enough to know that as a Christian, no matter what he does, all he has to do is pray to the Lord and he is forgiven. Its like an etch-a-sketch! I need to find that clip and post it... it was too funny.

Next on the goal list is to be the best wife and mom I can be. If that means housework, fine. If it means saying screw the housework, lets go outside and play in the rain, I'm good with that too. If that means flipping the bird to anyone and EVERYone who looks down their nose and me and my husband because we are now putting blood, sweat and tears into fixing our marriage, then I'm all for that as well. Whatever it means...

My education is my next goal. I was my children to see and understand that an education is a must, no matter what you plan to do in life. I gave myself a time line a long time ago on how long I would be a stay at home mom. That time is coming to an end in a few years, and I need an education under my belt to give me the most opportunities. If knowing in my heart that taking on a job outside of my home is what is best for my family makes me some sort of bad mother to other people, refer to the bird flipping above. As long as my children know I love them and would do anything for their happiness, the perception of others really doesn't matter to me at the end of the day.
This last one has sort of been a work in progress for a while. I want to run. I want to have that drive and that need to run for miles and miles. My New Years resolution this year is going to be a big one... but its definetly do-able.
