Re: Motivational Monday!

  • I am going to start taking yoga classes twice a week.

    I bought a groupon for 20 classes at a studio just down the street from my house.  I will start on Wednesday since I'm going to pick up anniversary cupcakes tonight and actually go out tomorrow for said anniversary.

  • I'm going to work out three times this week. I put on a pair of shorts this weekend, and they were tight! Since it is only 2 weeks until Hawaii, I need to get back on the eating healthy/working out train!

  • I want to get a large portion of my paper done this weekend since it's fall break so I'll have three days to do it. I already have my sources ready so I guess I'll just start it.

    I also want to get a lot of reading done for a different class. I need to sit down in my down time this week and just do it.

  • I'm going to FINISH revisions this week. Please, eight pound six ounce infant baby Jesus, Lady Gaga, and all things holy, let me finish revisions this week.

    I'm going to accomplish this by becoming a hermit for the week.

    I'd also like to get rid of this sinus infection I have. Is it possible to will it away? Antibiotics don't seem to be helping. Living in the South with allergies is the worst.

    I write sexy books. I read all the books. I love dresses & macarons.

  • I need to clean my closet.  

    But in all honesty, I won't pick anything up or put anything away.  Instead I will just buy more clothes and shoes and throw them in more piles because I have run out of room.

  • I'm going to stop drowning my sorrows in junk food.  I'm in pain, food isn't going to fix it. 
    I'm going to stop being a blob in bed.  I've spent a month in bed.  Once my physical pain fades (hopefully this week)  I'm going to start bike riding with my husband again and try to join the indoor pool.  I need to keep myself as healthy as possible.

    I'm also going to send out my elf gift this week, because I'm a slacker and I shouldn't be.  It's been ready for a while, I just never got out to send it.

    And I'm not going to be a stranger to the world.   I've barely spent anytime on this board in a while, which is a shame.  I like participating on the board.

  • Keep swimming - four times a week!  I actually got it done last week and loved it, so the plan is to keep pushing on ahead

  • I'm staining my kitchen cabinets this week. Hopefully by Wednesday my kitchen will be transformed!

  • Oh and I'm going to buy a card for my Halloween exchange recipient to go with the gifts and mail it already. I have had all of the stuff since last week but every time I'm at the store I forget to grab a Halloween card.

  • Swimming is going...swimmingly :D.  My goal is to go at least four days again this week.  Days one and two are already under my belt.

  • I've got to get my elf gift out. I've had them for two weeks! Why do I hate the post office so much?

    Because unfriendly, mean, scary people work there.

    Truth. The one by me is especially brutal. Also, they have poor social skills- last time I went (8 weeks post partum), I was holding Brynne who is clearly a newborn and the lady working there asked me when I'm due. Um. Not pregnant, lady but thanks, way to make me feel AWESOME.
