Weekly Goals 4/28

Long weekend at my parents house with a little man that was cooped up by the second day and only wanted to eat sweets!!  UGH!!  But we made it through the week with the detox from sugar only to end the week with Grandpa showing up with more sweets!!  Oh well, that is the week and we are going to a birthday party on Sunday to round out the sugar craze.  I hope you had a less sugar filled week.

Last Week:

Family Goals
  • Spend time with family including the last few days with the extended family- We had a great visit with a bunch of extended family plus lots of late dinners because so much playing outside at night.  The late sunset is really messing with the bedtime schedule.  We are all exhausted but no time to rest :)
  • Playdate with friends- I had so many things going on during the week that I had to remind myself to get home for our playdate on Friday after school.  They had a great time and played with so many things that the house was turned upside down.  Isn't that the key to a happy playtime with 4 year old boys?
  • Healthy Puppet Show at the library- We went to the puppet show and had a great time getting back into our regular routine.  The puppet show was a little weak but a good enough topic with staying healthy and getting shots.
  • Class at My Gym and go to at least two open playtimes- Luckily, we did three open playtimes this week and had a really great class.  I used the few free seconds to run into Giant to get some turkey so that my husband would have sandwiches the rest of the week :)
Personal Goals
  • Cut coupons if I get them- Super excited that they had piles of papers when we got home so I had the inserts to cut for the week.  I cut the coupons so that I would have them for triples.
  • Get coupons on Friday- I went to three different places on Friday morning and the papers weren't there yet.  My husband brought home my pile of papers and I got my coupons in piles so that I can sort and cut them this week.
  • Go to PT for TMJ twice- I think that this is my first week with two sessions and it was a lot to get to the PT but I am feeling a little better.  Does this mean PT for the rest of my life?
  • Sub for preschool- I had a great time working with the little three year old class.  They were super energetic and lots of fun.  I can't wait to do it again next week!
  • Shut off computer 6 nights to save energy- Had my computer off for most of the vacation so only had a few days left of the week at home and kept the computer off every night to save energy.  I also shut it off during the day for a few days.  It was a surprise to me when I went to the computer around dinner time and realized that I hadn't had it on all day!!!
  • Finish reading "All in good time : when to save, stock up, and schedule everything for your home"- Finished and posted review
  • Start reading "The Shunning" or "Cold Service"- Those were the next two in my pile and I might have grabbed two more from the library that just got moved up in the pile.  I finished the Virgin River series this month starting with Sunrise Point and then My Kind of Christmas before starting on the books on my list.  I went on to read the Shunning and then Cooks Country TV Show Cookbook.  It was a flip between reading Cold Service or the book that I just got in the mail from my new Blogging for Books.
Home Management Goals
  • Clean dishes, counters and floors at least 5 days of the week- Luckily, I cleaned the kitchen before I left and that left two days without having to clean the kitchen.  I kept it clean the rest of the week.
  • Clean dishes one night and not wait until the morning- I loaded up the dishes when we got home from vacation but we had leftovers so there wasn't much in terms of dishes that didn't go into the dishwasher so we had a little break.  I only had a few dishes sitting in the sink on
Blog Goals

  • Post one post everyday (schedule 7 posts so that can spend more time with family)- I had a bunch of posts scheduled for the week but I was still putting the finishing touches on the Thrifty Thursday post which turned into a Kid Science post instead.
  • Review book reviews completed during the week (if done)- Already did the book reviews for everything that was finished during the week.  Can you believe that this is the last full week of the month??
  • Work on a few posts to work ahead for the coming week- I knew that I would get a little behind with everything from our vacation but I got a lot of posts up for the week and I need to get a few more posts up for next week to be ready for the week.  I might be looking at a busy weekend since I don't have a lot of time during the week for extra blogging work.
  • Post Weekly Goals, Menu Plan Monday, and Thrifty Thursday Tip- Done
