My Minimal Hoarding Life - 2019 Resolution End Of Year Check In

Wow! A month already gone but that is life, we have to make the best of the time we have because before you know it, time has slipped passed us. Don`t put off what we can do today till tomorrow.

I make four resolutions, or goals, to accomplish each year. Some years I make it with all of them, some years I do not. Usually two are easy and two are hard.

I make a word, or phrase, of how I plan to be for the year and this year I have chosen " Dream it, Do It." I chose this because I am making my dreams come true a little at a time, the time to get them finished is now, year 2019!

Here are my 2019 resolutions :

1 - Reduce Spending By Half

For December that is a yes, While I did spend money the things I bought are used to make money for Sunshine`s. A 100% accomplishment

As for the year I have to say that I did well, Compared to other years I did great. But there is still room to improve, for the year I will say I got this one 75% of the time. That`s not to bad.

2 - Reduce Stuff By Half

Yes, yes and yes! this month I got it done! I cleaned out the yard, here on the homestead and at the old home place. So its a 100% accomplishment!

For the year, YES! a 100% accomplishment! I cleaned out the old home place and I got this house back under control.

3 - Set Up Sunshine`s Homestead Creations Store

Nope I did not make it :( 

However, I have learned so much more this year and I have so much more stock ready for when it does get set up.

100% failed.

I do still have the online store, so check it out at : Sunshine`s homestead Creations

4 -  Cut Out Sweets - Kick diabetes ass!

To begin with, at least the first 6 months I did nothing to lower my blood sugar except walking. But that was not good enough.

The heard head me listened to the doctor and counted calories, I seen what I was eating and how many calories was keeping me down.

I have to say that in December my morning blood sugar has been within or close to normal. I am still taking the pills but I think I can get off those in 2020. 

I have lost 15 pounds and I am walking twice as much.

I will give this a 75% for the month if December and the year because I can do better.

So, that is how I did with my 2019 resolutions, how are you doing with yours? Did you accomplish any?
