Motivation Monday!

I hope it's ok I am posting this.  It hasn't been done in a while, and being a new year and all I thought it would be good to start it up again!  Maybe we will even have a follow-up Friday?

So what are you planning on accomplishing this week?

Re: Motivation Monday!

  • Personally I need to get to my cleaning.  It happens every year after the holidays that I get a bit lazy with cleaning. 
    I also need to set up my bike trainer and get some seat time in this week.  We are biking the C&O in March, so the more time in the seat the better!

  • Getting through work - it's hard to come back after a couple weeks.

  • I need to take down Christmas, I've been so sick with a cold so that has distracted me from doing that.  I'm setting a low bar for this week because I feel that terrible.

  • Great idea!

    Get all of my laundry done and put away.
    Take bag of clothes/shoes to donation drop off. 
    Decide on closet organization system for nursery.

    I REALLY need to organize my kitchen, I just don't have it in me to start that this week.

  • Getting back into a groove after the holiday.  Also, school work and a shit ton of reading.

  • Start up my exercise routine again and keep the house picked up. It feels so difficult getting back into the groove after having a few days off.
  • I need to get to the gym at least 3 days this week.

    The spring semester started today so I need to figure out my study schedule and stick to it more consistently than I did last semester.
    Siggy coming soon....
  • I have 2 sewing projects I want to get done, it shouldn't be complicated but I finally have the time to do it.

    That is the only actual go for this week, I want to get some major organization done all over the house but that is kind of a month long project.

  • Drop off the frozen dinners I made for my sister. She finally had her baby!

    Go for a run, hopefully 2.5 miles. I've been so lazy because it was cold, then rainy.

    Get all the laundry done. Please.

  • Getting back into my diet and exercise routine.  I think I gained five pounds over the holidays.  I don't know for sure because I'm too scared to step on the scale.

    It's slippery as waterweed.
  • Get my lazy butt out of bed by 5:30, so I can squeeze in some exercise.

  • I want to eat lunch in every day this week.  This is a big deal as I let it get out of control last year.

    I also want to finish the Golem and the Jinni now because it's that damn good.
