Weekly Wishes #2

Filed Under: Uncategorized Tagged With: Weekly Wishes

Last week I shared that I was going to link up with the Nectar Collective for Weekly Wishes. Wanted to give you an update of what I have accomplished from my monthly wishes so far and share my weekly wishes for this week.

196595_4569308125_2936_n

Throwback from when Kenny & I went to Florida before having kids!

Weekly Wishes

  1. Have fun with our family in Florida.
    Try not to stress over the little things.
  2. Catch up with some friends that moved to Florida a few years ago.
    Can’t wait to see how much their kids have grown.
  3. Continue with eating healthier food even while we are out of town.
    Don’t want to put on the 10 pounds I have lost so far.
  4. When we get home wash all our clothes from Vacation.
    Then go through all our clothes and donate ones that we don’t wear, or don’t fit anymore.

 This Month’s Wishes

  1. Don’t drink any soda.
    (So far this is going good. Though I did have about 8oz of soda during my splurge meal)
  2. Cook more meals at home.
    (Only ate out twice this past week. Much better then previously)
  3. Organize and declutter our kitchen.
    (Hasn’t happened yet, hoping when we get back in town)
  4. Make it to the gym at least twice a week.
    (Made it to the gym twice and worked out at home twice)
  5. Take more photos of the boys with my DSLR and print more photos.
    (I have been taking more with DSLR, but still need to get some printed)
The Nectar Collective

What are your goals for this week?

    I think that it is great that you make these lists and try to stick to them. And I love that you are donating old clothes to Goodwill.

    Stopping by from the link-up! Keep up the great work with all the you have accomplished so far! To stop drinking soda is a huge goal. I try to do it every month but I always go back to drinking it. Have a great week!

    What helps me with the soda is never buying it for my house and only getting it out for a special treat. If a few days go by without me having one and then I do drink one, I feel gross and bloated and remember why I'm not drinking them in the first place. You are doing awesome with your wishes!
    • Sarah says

      January 20, 2014 at 11:11 am

      Yes! We hardly buy it for home. I definitely feel better without it.

Annie has been struggling lately with feeling angry. I’m hoping this will help and we can figure out how to best help her when she is upset. The books are super cute and have affirmations at the end.
