My Word for 2014!

My Word for 2014!

Good afternoon! Back in December of 2013, when I was sitting down to think about what I wanted to have happen in 2014, I thought about the usual suspects when it came to trying to decide my New Year’s resolutions: exercise more, eat better, lost 

Goodbye to 38 by 38 Hello to 39 by 39!

Goodbye to 38 by 38 Hello to 39 by 39!

Good afternoon! Yep! You have heard correctly, yesterday was my birthday so I am officially 38!! WHOO! HOO!! 😉 As some of you may already know, I every year I put together a X by X list. A # of objects by number of years 

A Night of Vision Boarding!

A Night of Vision Boarding!

Good evening!

I have spent the past hour gathering pics from Polyvore to create an electronic Vision Board!!

The things that I am dreaming of is a passionate marriage, traveling, yoga, dancing, France, faith, family, friends, farm-living, photography, books, and a crystal chandelier for good measure!!

Anyway, I am getting back to journaling and time/goal management, which I realize are two different things, but I have found that since having not being consistent with these 2 things I have not been as happy as I normally am – not that I am sad, just not as happily as I could be! Nor am I getting as much done as I usually do! So, tomorrow morning, I am back to spending some time writing my morning pages, and I will have my to-do list written before I head to bed this evening!

Matter of fact, here it is:

  • At least 30 minutes of aerobic exercise
  • Drink at least 2 liters of water
  • Take iron pill
  • Eat a healthy breakfast
  • Eat a healthy lunch
  • Eat a healthy home-cooked dinner
  • Write morning pages
  • Morning skin care routine
  • Recycle at least 10 magazines
  • Do a load of dishes
  • 1/2 hour art studio clean
  • Put laundry away
  • Sweep floors
  • Spend at least 10 minutes meditating
  • Get in bed by9 pm

Ok, I think that list is long enough! 😉

Oh, I wanted to share some micro goals that I have come up with:

  1. Lose 7.6 pounds
  2. Finish cleaning art studio
  3. Make sure all books in this house have a place to “live”

These are small enough that they will get me closer to a few of my big goals, and they are small enough as to not be overwhelming! 😉

Have a FABULOUS evening! 😉

PS. I will “see” you Chunky Dunkers tomorrow evening, at about 7-ish!! 😉

Good evening! Tonight I had the opportunity to spend some more time with my sister, Alex! We spent the evening finishing up our design boards. Last Thursday, I promised you that as soon as I was done with it, I would take a picture of

I have trouble getting motivated to get out of bed every morning – anyone else have that problem??? LOL! Well, after setting both of my alarm clocks, yes I have 2, I FINALLY got myself out of bed on time this morning!! YEAH!!! I am 

Staying Busy!

Staying Busy!

I have been a list girl from waaaay back! I sometimes write things down that I have already done, just so I can cross it off of my list! Crazy, I know, but that is the story of my life right now!!! I have a lot on my to-do list, and I am working on crossing things off like crazy!!! My main focus right now, is getting my condo clean, organized, and downsized!! I am working on making it a place that rises up to meet me (as Oprah says) when I come home from a busy day at work!!

To-Do!

  • Organize one shelf in the laundry room – this will have to wait
  • Take out garbage
  • Do the dishes
  • Laundry
  • Spend at least 1 hour organizing office
  • Healthy breakfast – yogurt, granola, banana
  • Healthy lunch – uhm, no! Not unless chicken strips and fries counts as healthy??
  • Healthy dinner – Caesar salad
  • Drink 2 liters of water – I only got one liter in today
  • Blog
  • Write letter to Elisa (my sponsor child)
  • Take 3 new plants to work
  • Floss
  • Beautify – spent too much time being lazy in bed this morning
  • Bathe Faye
  • Bathe Sophie
  • Fix walking training schedule
  • Deposit check
  • Read at least 1 chapter of book
  • 10 minute meditation

Whew!!! I have gotten quite a few of these crossed off today, and it looks like there will also be a few that will not get crossed off, but I still find I get more done with a list than not – so I will carry on!!! 😉
