My husband's helping me with this one. I have selected a handgun, my husband had the salesmen show me several different brands and models and I chose the one that fit the best. He will be picking up the state application, will do a small safety and familiarization course. Through his connections with firearms instructors he is enrolling me in a course with a teacher who specializes in working with females.

My husband and I currently have four garbage cans going with material from our summer potted garden. We have been rotating it and I am hoping we can use the material for future gardens. If this goes well I plan to expand composting to household waste as well.

I am working to improve my cooking with paleo ingredients. I am working on almond flour baked goods for the holiday season.

I did a potted garden last summer and am going to continue that along with a veggie section in the back yard. I am also planting several fruit and nut trees. My biggest concern is getting good soil to augment what we currently have. Also I need to clear out the ivy that has overgrown much of the back corner where I want to put the apple trees.

I need to buy the supplies and find and easy to understand set of directions. I plan to start with a simple scarf as my first project.

My attic space is the first area to tackle. Then I will work room by room to develop a better, long-term system for organization.

This is an on-going skill set for me. I am focusing the area of developing learning targets and communicating them to students.

Building a household budget and sticking to it.

I am growing green beans this summer and will can most of them. I need to buy a pressure cooker and a good set of directions to help with this skill.

This summer I will plan to attend MAG-40 at Seattle Firearms Academy.

I will attend a class from a local female firearms instructor.

Leadership at work meetings...need to find some practical tips here.

I will actually work out at least once a week at the YMCA
