Where am I going with this?

So over the last few months I've really wondered what I have gotten myself into. As I've thought about what I've set myself up for I'll admit I've thought I've bitten off more then I can chew. But then I have to sit back and think - okay - we're how far into this and hey - what's the worst that can happen? I end up paying myself and donating money to charity? How terrible is that?

So now that I have slapped myself into shape, it is now time to get back to business. Here is all (albeit little) that I have done.

#7. So I signed up for a photoshop class on Jessicasprague.com - but I haven't had time to do it yet. Thank goodness it is a do-it-on-your-own timing one. Maybe when the kids are back in school?

#15 -perhaps I should view the list? We've been catching up on lots of movies. I wonder if any are on the list?

#19 - still going strong!

#22 - there is always so much to be thankful for each day - but is it okay to not be original? Often I am just so thankful for the day - and for getting to bed!

#28 - I think I may be able to do this through Focus on the Family's "Truth Project" in the fall. Our small group is planning on doing this together.

#39 - Yikes I forgot about this? It appears I may need to do more then one in a month to catch up!

#51 - I gave 2 parking passes to people over the last month - both at the library.

#52 - So I got started - not that much but I've started! I'll have to find my pieces of paper to see how much.

#74 - I think I am managing to do this! Can you believe I have to question it? Technically bedtime always counts but I need to be proactive in documenting it or at least noting it.

#75 - Drew bought a wind-up radio to put in our emergency kit! (He was inspired by D and D's cottage!)


So that is half of the list and now to back track some more and maybe add a few photos?

Is it June already?

My latest updates...

#19 - still going strong with the flossing - haven't missed a day yet!

#20 - out of the race I think - Last week was not a good one for sleep.

#22 - so much to be thankful for - i'm trying for variety but many nights I am just so happy for my bed!!!

#35 - given some new ideas about some foods to re-evaluate - sushi anyone? Turkish delight from Turkey?

#39 - Try a new recipe every month - I almost forgot about this one but rmembered that I did in fact make oatmeal banana chip loaf last week. Yey me! The kids weren't overly impressed however - not sure if I will make them again.

#51 - On Monday I gave my parking ticket with 2 hours left to a person coming into the parking lot.

#74 - Thankfully managing to have 1:1 time - Marlee a (few) tea parties and Matt - reading

#75 - purchased 2 big water containers for storage for the emergency kit

#95 - Saw "Anne of Green Gables" May 23rd with Matt and the group from church

Okay - this was a really busy week and looking over this list just now I really hope that I am not being overzealous. Yes I am only month 2 into it - but I am seeing how I need to make goals and be intentional about following them. Breaking it into chunks and working on those. It's the "regular" ones that I am feeling a little more apprehensive about.

On a side note, I am still working on my intentions for 2009 - I think I am about 1/3 of the way through them. Maybe I should post them... and have some progress to note!

Slowly but surely.

Not a whole lot of progress this week but continuing along with a number already started.

17, 18 - Have talked with a few people about running a marathon next year and even possible a 1/2 marathon in September. I figure the more people I talk to about it the more likely it is to happen.

19 - I have flossed every night this week too! Still have to print off the chart though!

20 - I got 7.5 hours of sleep on Friday and Saturday of this past week. It helps when the kids aren't around (Sat)

22 - included music, Cierra getting to visit with family, memories of ATF and KB from MWSmith

46 - Making plans to take mom out for Mother's Day

72 - Concious about stopping what I was doing to help Marlee when asked - would be nice to do it the whole day though

74 - Wii Fit with Matt; Hair time with Marlee

That's all for now folks!
