Wow! That was a crazy week! I had too many events scheduled that had me feeling a little bit of anxiety. I just dealt with each day, one by one, and got through it just fine. This week will leave me with a bit more free time, I hope…
Goals from Last week:
1. Keep up with my blog by posting at least 3 times.
Yes!
2. Post at least 2 Youtube videos.
Yes!
3. Figure out how to reply to comments on my blog.
Sort of… The only way I can seem to reply directly to comments on my blog is through the Blogger app on my iPad. This is really frustrating! If anyone knows of a better way please share it with me ASAP!
4. Spend more time replying to comments on my Youtube videos.
Yes, I was able to sit in Starbucks with my laptop one morning and replied to many comments. I need to grab my laptop more often before heading out the door.
5. Get in at least 2 walks this week.
NO! I was only able to get in one walk this week. I was planning to walk more but the rain & appointments kept me from the outdoors. At least I had one great walk!
9/10/12 5.17 miles
9/10/12 5.17 miles
6. Mail out at least 5 cards/gift cards to my chemo angel patients.
No! I only mailed 4 this week. I promise to mail more this week.
Here are a few pictures from my busy week:
My daughter’s homecoming mum. It’s a Texas thang! |
Mack trying on her mum. Yes, It is worn around her neck since it is so big & heavy. |
Bloggy Boot Camp Dallas – Speaker Tiffany Romero (LOVED HER!) |
Goals for this week:
1. Back to walking this week.
I would like to get in at least 4 walks.
I would like to get in at least 4 walks.
2. Work on my blog after learning so many helpful tips at Bloggy Boot Camp on Saturday.
3. 2-3 YouTube videos.
4. Cook a new crock pot meal. Or should I say cook any meal. LOL!
5. Get a few thank you cards written and mailed.
There’s nothing like an old fashioned handwritten note.
6. Schedule a flight to visit my parents in Florida.
Most of you know that my parents are in poor health. I need to go visit and spend some time with them. I am so busy with my kids that I feel bad for not getting there more often. I don’t want to live with regrets later, so this is a priority this week.
7. Network with my new blog friends.

Anybody else setting goals this week?
If I did this post as a weekly link-up, would any other bloggers be interested in participating?
Have a GREAT week!

Hi! I think I can help with being able to reply to your comments. I was having the same problem. On your comments under Comment Location choose Embedded. I changed mine to this option and I was able to reply to my comments. Hope it helps.

Thanks for the advice Julie! I tried that but it didn’t work. My blog designer is looking at it… So here I am on my ipad again. At least I’ve figured out something for now. Have a great weekend! Stacie xo
