Let’s Look: How You Organize for the New Year

Good morning and happy Wednesday! Today, I’m linking up with my some of my favorite bloggers, Mix and Match Mama and A Little Bit of Everything, to talk about how we organize for the new year!

This post is perfect to talk about right now! I just posted my 22 for ‘22 and many of them had to do with organization.

I like to break things down into specific buckets, so here’s how we organize our lives!

Tip Jar: No Spend January Challenge

It’s that time of year again! A time when we sit down and thoroughly review our budget and set financial goals for the year. I will share more on goals and something new I just started for budget tracking, possibly later this week or next (because it requires it’s own post). In the meantime, I wanted to share a challenge with you, one you can join too – NO SPEND JANUARY!

You heard that right – N O S P E N D J A N U A R Y. This will be hard, it will be so annoying, but honestly it’s the reset we need. We didn’t entirely accomplish our goals from last year. Some modifications were made, unexpected items popped up (as they always do) and we focused hard on investing – which has been amazing and sometimes I forget that’s where our savings is!

22 for ’22

Happy New Year’s Eve or New Year’s depending on when you read this! WOW, did 2021 not fly by or what?! Looking back on this year, there were so many things that truly came to light bettering our family. As this year comes to a close, I look forward to the excitement of a “FRESH” start in the new year. I’ve seen this trend “22 for ’22” and thought I would jump on board. What are 22 goals, intentions, plans and/or “to-do’s” you have for the upcoming new year?!

Today I’m sharing my 22 in ’22 list. I had a great time doodling over the past week while the kiddos were using their new art supplies from Christmas and I thought – what the heck, let’s have fun and make this list come to life!

Life Lately – December ’21

Where am I?? What day is it?! Are we still in 2021?! My goodness friends, what a crazy week it has been! I’ll share an update on that in a minute, but an overview – we left for a little getaway last week, missed our flight, finally made it home after a major delay and are now sick! I have so many things to share, but in the meantime, I’ll share a little life lately. Check back here tomorrow for my final gift guides tomorrow! Hopefully you are done Christmas shopping, but last minute ideas can always be helpful!
