7 GOALS FOR 2019 – WEEK 1 OF 52
Posted by Michelle on January 8th, 2019 . Filed under: 2019 Goals .Hey hey, I’m back today with an update on my goals for the year. So let’s get right to it, shall we?
1 – Lose 100 pounds. I’m down 2.6 pounds in 5 days. I weigh every day (you don’t have to remind me that I shouldn’t do that because I hear it all the time) and I was down more, but then the weekend came. My Sunday job is a 12.5-hour shift and even though I pack my proper breakfast, lunch, and snack, I get super snacky and hit the vending machine. I need to do Sundays better or be even more better during the week so that the Sundays don’t take the number too far backwards. Only 97.4 pounds to go!
2 – Read 4 books. Nothing to report here. I have 2 books, but I haven’t thought about when or where I have the time to read.
3 – Canning. Nothing to report here. I jotted down a site on how-to canning, and I need to find that.
4 – Bake a pie from scratch. Not yet. But I did bake a cake (from scratch) with prunes in it and didn’t tell the family that it had prunes in it and they. loved. it. #winning
5 – Save $1000 cash. I gave myself a running start on this one and had set aside/saved $40 cash in December. And last week I saved another $10 by selling my kid a $20-off Vans coupon for $10. Hell yeah I sold it to her instead of giving it to her. I had to spend the money to earn it in the first place! Only $950 to go!
6 – Self-care. I started working on Valentine’s cards. I sat at my craft table and played the Frank Sinatra station on my Echo Dot and it was delightful! I also dipped in to the cosmetic bag that has about 30 different lotions and potions that have been given to me or earned as a gift with purchase and starting using some. Soft skin is good, right?
7 – Do something with the blog. Hi, 2 days in a row!
I’ll catch you here on Monday with this week’s update.
TTFN!
