To Do's....

Recently I have noticed that I am creating quite a few "To Do" lists around my apartment. I have always been one for lists and I had kind of gotten out of the habit since I graduated. However, I have been so much more productiv these last few weeks since I have started making my lists and sticking to them like I used to. So, seeing as how I wanted to blog tonight but am very tired I thought that I would briefly blog about some of my long term "To Do's" (not sure if there is supposed to be an apostrophe in there or not but it looks funny without one). Lately, here are some of the things I have been trying to cross off of my long term "To Do" list.

1. Workout - I have really been trying to get in shape lately. Man, it is really hard since I haven't worked out in a long time. I am already seeing (or should we say feeling) the rewards though so, I hope I can build myself up to doing more. We will see.

2. Cook - Jesse's Mom gave me a really nice set of kitchen utensils, pots and pans, and bowls for my birthday in an effort to try and help me learn to cook. I am really guilty of eating out a lot and I have GOT to start cooking more. I rather enjoy it when I do it however, it is just the fact of getting up and doing it. I recently saw the movie "Julie and Julia" this weekend which was so cute and it really made me want to go out and buy a cook book and cook one recipe a day from it. I'm not sure that I would start with Julia Child's French Cooking (probably something way simpler) but, I just might do that. It might get me more motivated about cooking.

3. Save Money - Jesse and I are both on a quest to save money. I have a feeling we are not alone in that quest either! ha! So, I feel that if I could learn and enjoy cooking that would really help on the saving money thing. We are both working so, that is a blessing in itself. I am about to start school but will continue working. We just have to really use our will power and I know we will have money saved up in no time. Thanks to Dave Ramsey's book for inspiring both of us to save, save, save...we both know it will be rewarding in the end.

Well, those are the BIG "To Do's" for the present. Honestly, if I could conquer those then I would be A-OK! One day at a time, though!
