Today I’m recapping my March goals and listing my April goals. As always, I’m using a Y for YES and N for NO to indicate whether or not I accomplished my goals.
March Goals
Relationships
N Go on a date with B.
Y Spend
one-on-one time with Jacob. – Jacob and I spent a good bit of time playing
the piano together. He has been teaching
me what he’s learned since I have been wanting to start taking lessons.
Y Spend
one-on-one time with Olivia. – She and I have had the opportunity to spend
some time together while B and J have been golfing. We finally started reading her Body Book
together again, and I’ve also been spending some time with her in her bedroom
listening to Taylor Swift. She’s been
spending time doing that with the CD books so she can learn all of the
lyrics. <3
Y Go
to dinner/something fun with my girls. – We went to Trivia Night! So fun!
N Go
to lunch with a friend. – Got the convo started a little too late in the
month for this, so we weren’t able to find a date that worked for both of us,
so hopefully next month!
Personal/Health/Wellness/Fitness/Beauty
Y Meditate, quiet time, and affirmations every day.
Y Drink
64 oz. water most days.
Y Close
all rings on my Apple Watch 23 days. – I closed them all 26 times!
Y Do
more squats and focus on toning inner thighs.
Y Continue
focusing on strengthening arms.
N Aim
to hit 10,000 steps most days. – I averaged 9,346/day so it was close!
Y Do
Best Lent Ever leading up to Easter.
Y Visit
with my therapist.
Y Ditch
old lotion and start using a cleaner lotion. – I finally let go of my
beloved Bath & Body Works stuff that I’ve been using since I was a teenager
and I swapped it for CeraVe Moisturizing Cream that I’ve been using on my face
for years. This stuff is ahhhh-mazing on
my body, and I’m only sad I didn’t switch sooner. My skin is so much more hydrated and soooo
much softer since I’ve been using it… especially the skin on my elbows and
knees.
N Create
a perfume roller from oils.
Y Read
1 book. – I read four! That might be
a record for March!
Family/Fun
X Attend the Home and School Advisory Board meeting. – This was actually canceled because there were no updates needed, so this is non-applicable.
Y Attend
the Daddy / Daughter dance.
Y Host
a poker/game night with friends.
Y Attend
a St. Patrick’s Day party with friends.
Y Jacob
start his spring golf season.
Y Celebrate

Y Clean
out storage closet in Brian’s office. – The gift wrap is all organized and I

floor is still full of stuff because that’s where we’re storing all of the
items we’re trying to sell, but other than that, it’s pretty clean.
Y Clean
out downstairs bathroom cabinets.
Y Clean

Our Week – The One with a Paul Thorn Concert and the First of My Birthday Celebrations
It’s going to be a wonderful April my friend! And I hope you had the most marvelous birthday ever!
ReplyDeleteI'm sooooo behind on blog reading girl, and I always feel really bad for behind on yours! I'll be trying to catch up today! Your monthly goals always inspire me - cleaning out Jacob's entire room - Lawd, I need to do that for my kiddos - and I still have so much baby stuff...from Henry and Eliza. Oy. Also, I've also just switched to CeraVe lotion and cleanser! It's been hard to find something that really works and this stuff is magic! Lastly, that meme about 23AndMe! Bahahahah! I sang it as I read it!
ReplyDeleteGreat job on the goals especially the reading, I feel like a proud reading guide. lol.
