Optimistic Monday

September 23, 2013

Fall has finally reared it’s head here in north Texas.  Thank goodness!  I now love waking up and taking my morning walks rather than dreading the humid summer days.  Actually, it’s still hot in the afternoons, but we’re getting a break in the mornings.

Busy week last week for me.  It all ended by attending a beautiful wedding for a family friend.  I love weddings!  Love is a beautiful thing!

Goals for last week:

1.  Walk 4 times.
Yes, I was able to get in all 4 this week.  I even had one morning with temperatures in the low 60’s.  I’m so excited for fall!

2.  Finish cleaning out my makeup drawers and cabinets.
My makeup collection is always a work in progress…  But I’ve cleaned through a lot and better organized my things.

3.  Mail packages that I’ve needed to send.
I mailed all but one package out.  I need to divide up my package to my friends in the UK because the post office wanted $75 to mail it.  I think I nearly choked when they told me that.  LOL!

4.  Reply to comments of my YouTube videos.
I’ve been replying, but still have a lot more to catch up on.

5.  2 pilates workouts.
I only did one pilates workout this week.

6.  Finalize all specs on my master bathroom remodel.
I had 2 meetings with the interior designer and builder last week.  We meet again on Monday and hopefully we’ll start to get the ball rolling on this project.

Goals for this week:

1.  Visit a few showrooms to pick out the tub, sink and fixtures for the mater bath remodel.
2.  Include more running/jogging in my workouts.
3.  Participate in a few blog hops this week.
4.  Get a facial.  Might as well pamper myself.
5.  Take clothes and shoes to donation center.
6.  Lunch with a new girlfriend.  I’m excited about this!  I’ll tell more about it later.

Anybody else setting some goals for themselves this week?

P.S. We had a few inches of frozen precipitation, which was mostly ice and sleet so we’re stuck at home for a few days. But I did make my homemade vegetable soup and it was delicious!

Looking for a cute sweater for Valentine’s Day and Looking for a cute sweater for Valentine’s Day and beyond? I found it! It’s a pretty jacquard texture in smoke blue. But the real treat is the light pink boucle’ hearts. My fave!  Looks great with a button down, tee, turtleneck or tank. I paired with some jeans and just love the combo. 

Available in misses, petites and women’s sizes. Grab yours now at @coldwatercreek and be sure to check out the entire Love Notes Collection.💗
