Goals for 2015

Like many of you I’m sure, I’ve been thinking a lot about what I want to accomplish in 2015. I have many goals for the coming year, and to help keep myself accountable I thought I would share a few of them with you. 

Home goals: 

1. Save money and prep our current house for selling. We’d love to move in the next year or two into a house with more space. When we bought our current house we knew all along it would be a “starter” house, but we’re ready to find something we can stay in for a good long time. 

2. Decorate our house with artwork and current pictures of Jona. I’m not much of a decorator. Our big project last year was painting the walls, but we didn’t do much after that. Currently adorning those walls are pictures of Jona as a newborn. We need an update. 

3. Complete one DIY/organization/deep-clean project every month. This sounds pretty easy in theory, but following through on home-related tasks is not one of my strengths. 

Blog goals: 


1. Order new business cards. I’ve been needing to do this since I rebranded my blog in September and changed the name to Shea Lennon. 

2. Create a schedule or routine for sharing blog posts using social media. I’m terrible about doing this consistently. I think I just need to make it a habit. 

3. Create an area in my house with good lighting for doing food (and other non-style) photos. Also purchase a few “props” and pretty plates and platters to make the photos more interesting. 

4. Take a photography class (online or live) and improve my photography skills. 

Fun goals: 


1. Wear lipstick. I’d love to find a few bold colors that I feel comfortable in and wear them on a regular basis. I love how it instantly adds polish to a look. 

2. Do more crafts (I’d like to say one per month…we’ll see). I bought a “craft a day” calendar (I couldn’t find The Chew at the stores I went to two days before New Year’s Day…imagine that.) so I’m hoping it inspires me to make some stuff. Not that I don’t have plenty of DIY ideas on my Pinterest boards too. 

3. Take advantage of the free (or cheap) kid-friendly activities in the Kansas City area. I’m a creature of habit, and lately my habit has been to be a total homebody. When weather permits, I’d like to have more weekends in which the major destination is somewhere other than Target.
