Happy New Year!!!
So what are your new beginnings?
My new beginnings...
1. is to stay on budget all year long and to actually have some money in the bank at the end of the year.
2. Start homeschooling Kindergarten in the Fall.
3. Learn more about God and Jesus. Start by reading one of Lee Strobel's books.
4. I can see myself having a hard time with this one, but I would like to start having a menu for each month and some kind of prepared schedule for the kids.
5. Scrapbook 100 pages this year.

We do a prepared menu {most of the time}..it really helps! Like Wednesday's we have dinner at church..we do pizza night on Friday's{doesn't have to be delivery;We like frozen, I stock up during sales}..mexican night on Thursday's..Italian night..hot dog night and so on..let me know if you need some help..I love doing that sort of stuff!
I usually sit down and plan out my meals for 2 weeks. Then I make my shopping list. First I shop in my pantry, then I hit the grocery store. One thing I ALWAYS do is...when I find whole chickens on sale, I by 4 or 5. I will cook them, debone them, divide the meat up in 1 cup bags and freeze it. That way I always have cooked chicken in the freeze. And check Kroger for those sales. I happened to be in there one morning shopping and they had their chickens for 29 cents a pound. It was really early in the morning..like 6 am and the guy was putting them out. I just had him load an entire box into my cart. 12 chickens.
I also belong to a yahoogroup that emails out weekly menus. You can go back and look at the past menus. (There are 84 weeks listed.) http://groups.yahoo.com/group/joaniesmenus/
I need to sit down and work on my resolutions. I've got a lot of things I need to get accomplished this next year.
