Let's make an easy one...

My goal today, do my best at work, and come home happy. While I am at it, perhaps I can get a room clean

Day 6... easy I hope.

I knew I would blow this...

...So I just got it out of the way in my first week. Well excuses out of the way, I am trying this again. FOr starters I have a couple friends at work trying weight watchers with me, if you want to follow along with us, please reply on here with advice, encouragement, anything that may have helped you stick with it.

As for running and getting into shape, baby it is cold outside, and I like the cold... just not with me in it. And I know gyms are an option, but they are pricey, and I can't justify that expense at the moment.

I have been working alot, but I hope to cut back a little... just because I like working, and I like spending...

So what were my goals to get through day 5? Simple, post... which I did. Tomorrow I am keeping them simple, post, get paycheck, get chocolate, eat chocolate. as good as done!

Day 5... I did it, right.

What was I thinking?

Really how I did I expect to be able to seriously focus on dieting, exercising, and accomplishing random goals when I have no time, EVER. Ok so I have time obviously for blogging on here, but I try to keep that to a minimum. Besides doesn't everyone read this fascinating blog about moi?

Needless to say after working ALL day yesterday I did not finish my memory book as planned. But it worked out because we were unable to head out anyway.

Goals for today? Not writing them where I will have to be forced to eat my words... I am going to gather my things and really work on the book, but then I am going to try to get my Etsy shop set up with my other blog... Wish me luck.

One thing I did accomplish today... I made it to church, and we heard about gratitude, So I am going to add my gratitude in here daily as well... I am grateful that I am fortunate in these tough times to have not 1 job but 3, and I work with great people at all of them. My original 2 jobs at the dance center, I feel like I work with my family... I truly enjoy going there. And at Ikea I have been able to met lots of great people, and I look forward to getting to know them better.

Day 4... Thanks

Day 3...

It is day 3 and I STINK at keeping goals, I have blown WW out the window, it snowed I and I don't want to pay for a gym. and I love me my sweets... There is the negative of my day.

I have decided I really want to work on my writing... I keep coming up with more and more ideas I want to write about, and in one class I took on writing it said that like any other talent you have to practice. SO while I have not lost a pound or increased my exercise, I have practiced writing on my blog.

I am hoping tonight I can accomplish something... finish a project I started almost two years ago. When my mom passed, I had guests at her funeral write memories of her and on the website of her obituary they commented as well. I have worked on and off on putting this memory book together for my dad since then. Tomorrow we are going to his house for his birthday... I would like to be able to give it to him.

If I can accomplish this it will be one goal checked off my list.

I have also reconsidering renameing this Blog... "The procrastinators guide to goals"... think it will fly?

Day 3... reevaluation

What now know...

If you plan on starting a diet, go to the store the night before. And if you plan on running in the morning, don't agree to do a job that keeps you up past midnight.

With that note, I have been okay on my diet plan... not horrible, but not an ideal start either. And while I have not yet ran today... I still have tonight, right?

But I am doing this blog for self improvement, so I am going to finish the day improved... somehow.

Day 2... starting

Here I go...

Well I am sooo not big on mew years resolutions, but I was planning on running a half marathon last year, and well that fizzled. So here it is a new year and I have not lost any weight, I am feeling more exhausted than ever and I still have yet to have ran a half marathon.

So starting tomorrow (because why not procrastinate one more day) I am following weight watchers, and running daily to accomplish my goals. I would love help in doing so, even just an online friend to offer support, or a neighbor willing to wake up early and run with me, or someone watching me and asking how I am doing with this would be greatly appreciated.

Also I am going to try better to keep up on my blog... Kris still wants our family one private, but I am making a public one of my attempt to lose weight and get into shape... GO ME!

I have been thinking on this new blog now, and there is way more room for my own improvement then I realized. I have goals I want to see accomplished this year, weakness I need to overcome, gratitude I need to show. SO while the vain me thinks I should keep it to my physical improvement... the wiser me thinks I should expand on this concept....

So here is the plan... I find a way to improve myself, Daily, make notes of what and how I did, as well as keep up on eating right and exercising.

Day 1 The plan... wish me luck (perhaps I should add a before and after pic... I will get on that tomorrow.)
