Optimistic Monday

September 3, 2012

Hi Everyone!  
I hope you had a great week and met a few goals that you set for yourself.  I had a good week despite not hitting every one of my goals.

Goals for last week:
1.  Work some more on my blog.
Yes!  I found a few sites that have been so helpful.
2.  Finally go and cancel my gym membership that I haven’t used in about 6 months.  
Yes, I finally cancelled the gym membership.  What a great feeling!
3.   Walk 4 times.  Maybe even add some running this week.
I only walked 3 times this week.  We had some company in town and my time was not my own for the entire week.  I had to entertain a few days which interfered with my schedule.
8/27/12 3.12 miles, 8/28/12 3.06 miles, 8/30/12 3.26 miles
4.  Add 1-2 pilates sessions to my workouts.

I am sad to say that this one just did not happen.

5.  Work with my camera this week.

I did get to play around with my camera, including pictures and video at my daughter’s first pep rally of the school year.

Please note, the theme of the pep rally was Nerds!
6.  Lunch with girlfriends.
No girlfriends this week.  Lunches were with my hubby or my son.

Goals for this week:
1.  Walk 4-5 times.
2.  Lunch with girlfriends.
3.  Get in a pilates workout.
Either attend a class or do a DVD at home.
4. 4-5 blog posts and 2-3 YouTube videos.
5.  Cook a new dish for dinner this week from a Pinterest recipe.
6.  Order cards for handing out at blog conference.

I know I’m supposed to bring these with me to the conference that is in less than two weeks.  I am so excited to attend my first blogger’s conference.  Anybody else going? 


Have a GREAT week!
