Whoo Hoo! Monday morning and I've made it here already with goals to go! Love it!! Okay, so here's my goals for this week:
First of all I need to make it a weekly goal to make it here asap Monday morning and have my goals set!
1. Sell at least 10 listings to my WAHM Resource Directory. (Which are still only $5 for up to two categories and for a lifetime)
2. Get some more articles up at MH.
3. Work on my "surprise" (can't give anymore details on this, I wanted to finnish this last week but, it turned into a bit bigger than I'd expected.)
4. If I get the above done then I'd like to get started working on putting up my "Online Community" at MH.

My goals are to work 20 hours this week and contact at least 5 photographers who can place my samples in their studios for the models to use in hopes that the models will buy some makeup.

Oh wow! This is just great! Don't forget to keep us updated. LOL, when you "feel as though you have someone hold you accountable" you tend to get a little extra done As for me, well, I didn't get a darn thing listed done today. But, that's because I was too busy catching up from all my work over the weekend...and busy is good
I look forward to "Goal Meeting" with all of you!
Hmmm...speaking of having to get articles up...Becky you write articles don't you??

Um oops....sorry Anita! I know I yacked at you all day, but you did get at least something done - you helped me with the redesign of the shop pages! Everyone thank Anita for the hard work here too keeping us all motivated and also for putting together such an awsome resource site for moms. If you haven't been to Mommy's Helper lately, you must go see! She's got everything for wahms - not just business.
Well let's see, about my day - I haven't gotten anything checked off yet, but I did get about half the shop pages done (with some help from Anita of course, letting me know it looked alright!). I plan to finish up the rest of them tomorrow, and *hopefully* start on another one of my tasks. I REALLY want to get the new design in place for Mom's Market, but I also know that I'm going to need a good chunk of time to do it. It's not really something I can do in sections - I don't want to leave half old and half new for more than a few hours.

{{{{{{{{BLUSHING}}}}}}}} Thanks Kara!! Boy, you've really made my morning! But, you all don't let her push it all on me Mommy's Helper wouldn't be anywhere as good as it is if it hadn't been for her and the support from Mom's Market.
Well, I guess I can cross off #5 of my list. LOL, I was working on my goals after all and didn't even realize it!!
So, first for today, I'm going to work on my "Surprise" and hopefully I'll get that done this morning.

Well I'm happy to announce that I got one of my REALLY BIG goals acomplished last night, and that was to get the new design for Mom's Market in place. WHOO HOO! So now all that's left is:
3. Build more shop pages 4. Research summer products 5. Keep up on message boards
Hopefully I can check another off my list tonight.

Well just a little update - I'm completely done with my to-do list (except for "keep up on message boards", but I've done a pretty good job all week) and it's only Thursday night! YIPPIE!! For some reason I felt like this was Friday, so I was pushing to finish things all day :P
Wow what a week (or I should say 4 days) it's been. I've edited around 150 pages, built 16, and did the research for another 6. *whew*....I think I deserve tomorrow off LOL. No actually I've decided to make my to-do list for next week and start on it tomorrow.
Sooooo, tomorrow I'll be building another 5 or 6 pages from what I researched tonight. I haven't run out of ideas yet, and I've got enough to keep me busy for awhile still

My little update...
Well, I still only sold 2 listings this week. Not exactly my goal but, it's better than none
Like I said, I got a few articles up but, I need more..looks like this one is going to move on over to next week. LOL, really this is a goal that never ends.
Surprise is DONE!! It took a bit longer than I had expected it to but, I got it done. I have a yahoo group for MH where WAHMs help out each other well, I did a page for them "highlighting" them, their businesses and thanking them for everything they've done. Needless to say...they loved it
Thinking about working on the "online community" went waaaay out the window. LOL!
And of course I've helped out WAHMs sooo, not too bad this week.
Remember, even if you don't accomplish all your goals...don't forget what you did get done

That page you did yesterday REALLY looked FANTASTIC Anita! I know everyone was thrilled you did such a nice thing for them. You know you did double on your goal for helping a WAHM this week, so I think you did awsome.
As for my update - well um I already mentioned my goals for the week were done last night, but still I did more today. I didn't do the summer pages like I planned on (for some reason it just wasn't an interest to me today, and I couldn't bring myself to do them), so I went off researching for something that would. Well I found it and built another 7 pages - YIPPIE!
Now for this weekend I have a mini-goal for myself, and that's to jot down any other ideas for pages I think of. Generally I have my best ideas when I stop trying to think of them LOL.
