Missie - the good, the bad, the ugly

Well, I didn't receive any negative comments for posting about myself on here - so here I go!  My name is Missie.  I'm 27, a wife, and a mother of 2 beautiful children.  I live in Gig Harbor, Washington - one of the most beautiful places on the planet.  I work full time at a newspaper doing administrative duties in the Advertising department.  I grew up in Minneapolis, but have lived in several states throughout my life.  I love to travel and see new places.  I have 2 etsy shops, 3 facebook pages, 3 websites, and this blog.  I am co-leader of the EtsyMom Team on etsy and an active member in the EtsyBloggers Team and Team etsyRAIN.  I love to craft in all sorts of ways.  I tend to get semi decent with one craft and then move on to another.  I don't excel at any one thing in life - I'd rather enjoy it all.  My current craft obsession is paper.  I'm learning all sorts of new ways to include paper in my jewelry and how to make cards and bookmarks.

Another reason for me to write about myself here is I want to use my blog as a personal and business goal chart.  I need to set goals for myself on a monthly basis, or I will forget about them.  Nothing major, but I'm hoping it'll keep me on track.  As May is almost done, I'm only going to set 1 business goal:  Write at least 3 more times by the end of the month.

So now I need to come up with business goals for June.  Here's what I'm proposing:

  • Get blog set up on my website
  • Make 1 card per week
  • Make 1 new listing per week in each shop
  • Set up both shops to auto renew items through Etsy On Sale

I'd love feedback on what you think about the goals I've set for myself.  Do you have suggestions of how I can achieve them?  Do you have goals yourself for June?  I love comments :)  Then again, who with a blog doesn't?!

Wow. Missie, you are one busy lady =)
I think your goals are good ones - not too overwhelming but just enough so you keep moving forward. Good luck!

Thanks, elisa! I cheated a little bit and started getting my website ready a little today. Don't tell ;)
