Re: Motivational Monday!

  • 1.  Finish the Kate Daniels series while trying to keep up with the Allegiant read along.  I HAVE to read Allegiant, but I WANT to read Kate Daniels.

    2.  No idea.

    It's slippery as waterweed.
  • I have such a busy week and just nonstop go go go. I need to complete a presentation for Wednesday night, start reading HP and the Deathly Hallows, and get a bunch of paperwork done.

    I'm just going to not sleep haha.

  • Um ... get to two yoga classes this week again.  I did it last week so I should be able to do it again.

    I probably should name my MMC and his grandfather since I'm going to start writing this week.  I just figured out that they were related and the grandfather is going to be Celtic.  I'm thinking Scots because ... just because.

  • I would like to get my knees to stop hurting.

    Short of amputating my legs at the kneecaps, I will just keep popping lots of advil.  Of course taking some time off from the gym would probably help but that isn't going to happen.

  • 1) Clean my fish tank
    2) Purchase a score for a final project that I have

    How?

    1) Tonight force myself to give the poor fish clean water, no matter how sore my shoulder is
    2) Do tons of research as apparently the score is out of print....it is in public domain but I'd rather not print off a couple hundred pages of a score.
  • Get in at least two long walks with the pup this week.

    Stop being lazy and go after work. Now that I'm finally getting some energy back, we need to get back in the rhythm of long walks. I'm shooting for at least two miles each walk.

  • Goals:
    1) Set up recruiting event for the youth group I volunteer for.
    2) Read 3 books.
    3) Start Decorating for Fall/Thanksgiving.

    How:
    1) Make calls on my break and when ever I can.
    2) Read when not calling.
    3) Plan out what I want the house to look like and get out the pumpkin candles for inspiration.

  • I need to get out and get some algae eaters for my fish tank.  I also need to work on scrubbing the algae off of the tank. 
    Laundry needs to get done.  I should also organize our closet so I can actually put clothes away.
    I need to make another test run pumpkin pie.  I want to do it soon enough so I am not sick of pumpkin by Thanksgiving.  The gluten free crust is soggy every time I try.  I'm getting closer though!
    I need to go on at least one bike ride this week.  It may not be to the grocery store, but I need to get out and do it.

  • I need to figure out what we are doing for Jack's 4th bday next month. The rest of the week will be spent cuddling my babies and crying because I go back to work next week.
  • Four gym trips. Two yoga classes. No eating in the cafeteria at work. No Panera bagels after the gym. VACUUM! Clean off my dining room table. 

    I am going to prioritize and try not to procrastinate!

  • I want to walk every day, either morning or evenings.
    I need to apply peer pressure to my pre-readers to get their notes back to me by this weekend.
    Have to bring Chap to the vet for his 6 month heartworm shot.
    MUST GET HAIRCUT this week! It's all coming off. It's finally long enough to donate and so it's got to go!
    Also need to an outfit for an event next week.

    I'm making lists and planning each day to get all this done.
    I write sexy books. I read all the books. I love dresses & macarons.
