March, huh?????

So... we are into our 3rd month of 2011 now, and I am revisiting my goals for myself....

  • Read for pleasure at least 3 times a week.... this one has been easy to stick to.  I have so many great books in line right now =)
  • The Nickerson 365... I am on day 60 and going strong! (nickerson365.blogspot.com)
  • Finish cooking my way through the PW cookbook.... I am adding at least 2 recipes to my meal plan and grocery list for this month.
  • Work out and Diet... this has been ROUGH!  I worked out this morning and I am TRYING to make March count!
  • Some type of building or decorating in the office/sewing room... I have purged and de-cluttered it so far
  • Participate in a 5K (run or walk)... Walking for the March of Dimes May 1st, but not sure how long the walk is... possibly doing a 5K walk on May 8th if Mom is in!
  • Mechanical Bull.... not yet =)
  • Play more WITH my kids... this I have been doing well with.  Board games mostly thus far... cant wait for spring!!!!
  • Take the boys canoeing... not until summer =)
  • Donate $100 to a charity before the end of the year... I am behind on this.  My $8 a month goal is $16 in the hole.  I will try to catch up this month 
  • Scream less and hug more... I need to do better
  • Find something to financially help my family... I am back into Mary Kay, and I got my first order today!!!!!!!!  Hoping to make a good go of it!
  • Say "no" when I need to and "yes" when it is out of my comfort zone..... I havent been filling my plate as much... and I did go out twice when asked even though it would have been more comfortable to stay home with my family... and I had FUN!
So, I am not doing terrible, but there is definitely room for improvement.

I am also trying to make more time for me to sit with God.  I feel Him working in my life so much lately... and need to take the time to say Thanks.

Happy March.... I feel it is going to be a great month!!!!!!

  1. March Of dimes walk is 5 miles. I will try to walk the hole thing but Nickole will be the deciding factor. She may not be able to do the hole thing since she had surgery. I hope you all can make it! Including the Stegmans!!
