Optimistic Monday

August 27, 2012

Hi Everyone!
Thanks for joining me again to see how I’m doing with my weekly goals.  Let me know if you set goals for yourself and if so, is it on a daily or weekly basis?
Goals for last week:
1. Clean out my closet!
This was my number one goal since I did not accomplish it the previous week.
I started this massive project, but I have a LONG way to go.  I am a hoarder!  It’s time to get rid of the things that I don’t wear already and to stop hanging on to them for “later.”
2.  Walk 4 times
Yes!  I walked 4 times.  It would have been 5 but I had to take Saturday off because my hip was giving a bit of pain.
8/22/12 4.06 miles, 8/23/12 3.55 miles, 8/24/12 3.32 miles, 8/26/12 4.05 miles
3.  4 blog posts
I went a little bit crazy with blog posts this week…
4.  2-3 Youtube videos
Yes!  Posted just 2 videos for the week.  Don’t want to overwhelm everyone. 
5.  Make another new dessert
No desserts this week.  Everyone seems to be watching their snacking.
6.  Make a new recipe for dinner to conform to my son’s new low carb diet.
I made chicken fajitas in the crock pot.  Believe it or not, I’ve never made these before.

7.  Have a date night with my hubby.
This doesn’t happen nearly enough.  And it didn’t happen this week either.  LOL!  We did go out to dinner on both Friday and Saturday evenings, but the kids came with us.  We never mind having the kids go with us.  Soon enough they will be at college and we will have tons of date nights.


Goals for this week:
1.  Work some more on my blog.
I am finding several blogs that give some great tips.  I decided to add Sponsors to my blog.  If you have a blog or a business to promote please look at sponsorships available in my About Me section.
2.  Finally go and cancel my gym membership that I haven’t used in about 6 months.  
3.   Walk 4 times.  Maybe even add some running this week.
4.  Add 1-2 pilates sessions to my workouts.

5.  Work with my camera this week.
6.  Lunch with girlfriends.
It’s been way too long!  Now that everyone is finally back at school (as of today) I will have more time for friends and I am excited about this!

Have a great week!!

    I could use a good list of goals to get me going. I had a gym membership once… and I never used it either. I’m much more motivated to get outside and do something.

    Hope you have a nice week!

    I’m starting off the week with a goal of working out twice and getting some laundry done before the weekend. Don’t want to spend a holiday weekend inside doing laundry. 🙂

This lip butter balm is exactly what I’ve needed f This lip butter balm is exactly what I’ve needed for a very long time so I can wear all of my favorite lipsticks on smooth, hydrated lips.💋

This next-level balm helps to hydrate, smooth, and nourish lips like never before with a rich infusion of cocoa butter and plant-powered conditioners. It’s an ultra-soft formula that melts on your lips like butter, delivering a natural-looking sheen that leaves lips supple and subtly luminous.

You can see that they give a hint of color with a whole lot of shine and nourishment.

I like to say that these have a secret sauce to really mend, and soften lips. You need to read more about the ingredients on my website - you’ll be blown away!

• The coverage is multi-dimensional so it doesn’t look flat

• It looks great on all skin types and ages, but I especially love it for my mature skin

• It stays put on hot, humid days and is sweat resistant 

• Available in 57 shades! I wear my same shade as the old formula that I’ve used FOREVER
