Reading one of the 12 nonfiction books of the year encouraged me to get the ball rolling on taking a photography class. “Stretch” explains why you should try new things as well as to take all of your different experiences to create new things. At the end of the book, it gives a few ideas… Continue reading One Goal Leads to Another
Weighed in at WW
I’m down three points as of my third WW weigh-in this morning! I’m super excited about the results, since it hasn’t felt all that hard. Sure, I’ve had to say no to some great sweets at the office and sitting around the house, but I’ve also gotten to enjoy lots of bananas and fat-free Greek… Continue reading Weighed in at WW
Happy 2020!
Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday relaxing. Here in Texas, it was overcast and cold, so it was a good day to stay in and cuddle and play cards. It’s always nice to have some calm time before the crazy of the year sets in. I wanted to get a head… Continue reading Happy 2020!
Two more days of 2020
2019 is coming to end this week. It’s been a pretty good decade, which follows right along with my own personal decade from 30 to 40 years old. One of the things I think I’ve embraced this last decade is really trying to do the things I want to do instead of just talking about… Continue reading Two more days of 2020
Vitamin ABCs
My vitamins goal needs to be explained. I not only have bottles of pills sitting around my house, but at least two full boxes of vitamins from Careof. While I love the concept of Careof, I didn’t factor in that I am terrible at taking anything daily. I’m not a great routine person to begin… Continue reading Vitamin ABCs
Didn’t cut it
Here are the 20 for 20 goals that didn’t make the cut this year: Read 32 books. I’m at 31 this year and probably could do this, but I like the 12 nonfiction better. I’ll still set a Goodreads goal. Sell $1,000 on Poshmark. I’ve sold about $300 so far, so this is quite the… Continue reading Didn’t cut it
Early Start
I started early on one of my goals for 2020, which is to join WW (Weight Watchers for the uninitiated). It feels like a very middle aged thing to do, but since I needed something to track my food, progress that isn’t going to take up too much time, I think this may be a… Continue reading Early Start
20 for 2020
Here’s my goal list for 2020. I started with about 30 goals and narrowed it down to 20. Some of these I’m hoping to knock off right off the bat, so I put them at the top. Most of the 30 I took off were going to be expensive and since I’m trying to save… Continue reading 20 for 2020
19 for 2019
In 2019, I attempted to reach 19 goals, creating more success than I did in my previous 18 for 2018. Here’s the list, along with how I did. Pay off car. Well, I wrecked my car, so technically it got paid off, but now I have a new car payment, so not really sure how… Continue reading 19 for 2019
Winter is Coming
Editor’s Note: Posting late again! This was meant to post Tuesday, Nov. 13. It’s bitter cold here in Austin, Texas, which is highly unusual for November. It’s 35 degrees and cloudy outside, while we’re used to balmy days and nights much of the year. I’ve finished reading “The Nest” and have begun making my way… Continue reading Winter is Coming
