Updates & More · 04/24/2009

Yes…I know…It’s been quite a while since I’ve truly made a good post on the blog. Sometimes I think I should shut down the store during the beginning of each year. I tend to get hit with so many things in the first 4 months that it’s all I can do to keep my head above water with web development work.

But I’ve made a few waves with my 101 list! I’m so excited to share that with all of you. First on the list…

Create a budget

Can you believe that? I finally finished reading Dave Ramsey’s Total Money Makeover book. J and I sat down last weekend and worked through all the worksheets. We haven’t quite started yet, since we are near the end of our month which is bill paying time, but once they are all paid, we will start our budget with the next check.

Woot! We made a budget! Cross that one off my list!

Grow my business so my husband can stay home and work with me

This particular goal actually needed to be broken down into a few pieces. The first one was making my main business website more usable by moving it to a different platform. I’m almost there with that, which is great. Then I can start blogging on that website regarding web development topics. I also have some great ideas brewing in my head to help small businesses get started with their own web shop/blog/website like mine! Not to mention, a redesign for A Pretty Rock in the works. I’m so very excited.

And finally…

Photograph and post at least 10 ebay or craigslist items for destashing 1x month

I’m finally getting back to the destashing. After having cleaned the house for an all too short visit from the brother-in-law, I’ve been refreshed on my mission to declutter. Cleaning the house was amazing motivation, so I’ve already started listing some purses on my A Pretty Rock eBay account:

       

I love it when the ball gets rolling, don’t you?
