Weekly Goals 7/29

Talk about a busy week and I am not really sure why it was so exhausting but it really was.  I got a migraine that wouldn't leave for most of the week.  We kept all of our plans and went all over the place but I didn't have the extra energy to try to clean up and get things done around the house.  I was hoping to use the weekend and beginning of the week to catch up but it looks like my parents are coming into town.  I guess there is always August :) 

Last Week:

Family Goals
  • Spend time with my family- Lots of time with family this week
  • Go to While You Were Sleeping storytime- Since we ended up at the library the day before I was a little afraid about a revolt but it went okay even though he wanted to leave the activity a little early to look for books.
  • Go to playground and pool with friends- He had a blast although he is sure that his floaty makes him shiver... not getting in and out of the water so we left earlier then we planned.
  • Go to playdate at the park- Last minute change of park to change it up and we had fun regardless of the horrible heat and sweating like crazy.
  • Go to Movies based on books at library- We watched a new one to us Charlie and Lola and then had to read every book on the shelf.. actually I put a few back and set the limit at 10 because I was getting dehydrated!!  We brought home three and Daddy read them again that night.
Personal Goals
  • Cut coupons- I cut all my weekly inserts and all of the older Smart Source inserts on Sunday.  I left the Red Plum inserts to cut later in the week and finally got to half of them at the beginning of the week and the other half at the end of the week.  YEAH!!  I cut them all!
  • Shut off computer 5 nights to save energy- I almost forgot on Sunday and Monday but I went back and shut off the computer so the week was off to a great start.
  • Read ???  UGH, Nothing checked out of the library so I have a few books in a pile upstairs that I haven't read and I will pick from there- I read The Best of Me by Nicholas Sparks first and then got Sippy Cups Are Not for Chardonnay: And Other Things I Had to Learn as a New Mom by Stefanie Wilder-Taylor at the library and started reading it next.  Then I picked up The Vow: The True Events that Inspired the Movie by Kim Carpenter, Krickitt Carpenter and Dana Wilkerson and finished it.  What a busy week!!!  Stay tuned for reviews.
Home Management Goals
  • Clean dishes, counters and floors at least 6 days of the week- This has been another hard one to keep on top of because of sickness and busy schedule.  I have done okay (ignoring Wednesday)
  • Clean dishes one night and not wait until the morning- I have done a good job of getting everything into the dishwasher before bedtime but not the dishes in the whole sink but I have been getting it all cleaned out in the morning (ignoring Wednesday- you might see a pattern based on when my migraine started).  I did get everything cleaned up on Saturday night before I went to bed to get ready for baking on Sunday morning.
  • Go through more magazines- Done.  I went through the whole pile and now I have an empty basket by the front door waiting to be re-purposed.
Blog Goals
  • Post one post everyday- Done
  • Schedule at least 5 posts so that can spend more time with family- Done.  I have worked really hard on getting posts up ahead of time so that I would be able to post a few when I had a chance so that I would be ahead.  With the new recipes and books, I have already scheduled through the beginning of August.
  • Post Weekly Goals, Menu Plan Monday, and Thrifty Thursday Tip- Done
