- Get all dental work done:
This is the first thing I thought of when I was wondering what I needed to do to prepare to get pregnant. I've got some really bad teeth and while I'm doing better at taking care of my teeth I still need some major work done on them.
- Open business
I've had a dream of opening a business since I was a kid. I'm a decent crafter and would love to make things to sell. As long as I'm not losing money over it, I'm fine with having a small business.
- Become an Avon Rep
For some reason I've always wanted to be an Avon rep, I don't really even know why but I figure I'll try it out for a while, it'll be a nice story “When I was an Avon rep.....”
- Get my own place with room for a child or three.
I've always wanted more then one child, that's why I'm getting started so early with children. I don't want my child to be an only child.
- Move out of TN
I REALLY don't like TN. Like, I REALLY don't like it. I don't even know why, it's a decent state it just doesn’t do anything for me.
- Pay off debt.
Thankfully I only have about 3,000 left, but I do want to get it all paid off by the time I start getting pregnant.
- Get novel fully written.
I've been writing the same novel since 2009. Time to get it done.
- Find Support network (interest groups)
This single mom thing is going to be hard I know. But I know that I can do it if I have support. Once I move out of TN, I'll join knitting groups and a writing group and if I can, a scrapbooking group. I may even sign up for cooking lessons since I enjoy it but aren't that good.
- Knit Baby set
So I knit. (very 1920's I know) and I've always wanted my child(ren) to have hand knit clothes to wear, I have a document of knitting patterns I like that I'll make for my children to wear. Since I've got a few years before I start trying to get pregnant I figure I can make a few things here and there, and set them aside so I don't have to do the bulk of the knitting while TTC or preggo.
- Finish classes online
I hate school. Like really hate it. I hate it almost as much as I hate living in TN. But I do learn pretty well in an online class, so I've got a few classes (about 3 per semester) that I want to finish before I start TTC.
