Weekly Goals 10/6 and my 1000 post

I had a busy week with a lot on my plate but I made it through so that is the highlight!! I have a long list of things to do this week but I have high hopes that I am going to be less busy.  I guess we will see after a search for the local paper on Sunday because I really need to get some coupons or else it will be a hole in my coupon stockpile.  I guess that is what I get for being over scheduled.  Hope that you had a better executed week :)

This is my 1000 post!  I can't believe how quickly that came up.  I have written so many different posts about so many different subjects.  Happy 1000 posts to me!!

Last week:

Family Goals

• Spend time with family including Grandma and Grandpa- Grandma and Grandpa came to visit and little man was so excited to see there and went running out to the driveway.  We had so many things to fit into the visit so we were running around like crazy people.
• Swimming Lessons- We did the climb the ladder in the water and my little man learned to use his arms and kick his legs.  It was fun but sadly didn't wear him out this week so no nap :(
• Get to preschool on time everyday- We are doing well on getting school on time but on Wednesday my little man decided that he was ready to leave 1 hour before we had to and he had to run to the car while I was trying to get a shower.  I know that he was really excited to get to school but come on man!!!  Give me a break because running out the driveway in my towel is not the way I want to spend the morning.  Luckily he came right back in and started looking for me keys.... since I can't normally find them, he couldn't either.  Delay successful!
• Park on Wednesday since we don't have anymore My Gym classes- I am sunburned badly after four hours at the park.  I was totally exhausted but my little man had a great time and didn't want to stop.

Personal Goals

• Cut coupons- I cut two of the three inserts on Thursday and got the last one moved a few times and never got cut so I guess that I will add it to next weeks pile.
• Get coupons on Friday- Well, I checked CVS and they didn't have them.  My husband forgot to check the library on the way home.  We went out that night to a birthday party so we checked two different places and they were all picked through.  My husband promised to go first thing this morning when the library opened and then he forgot again.  He went out in the afternoon and checked and they were out.  I am going to check one more library tomorrow and cross my fingers.
• Go to Jazzercise - I didn't go this week because my doctor gave me a bunch of medicine and wanted to give it a chance to work and me to feel better plus I was really busy.  I will be back into my schedule next week.
• Substitute at school- I enjoyed working at the school and I am filling out an application to get a job there in the next few years.
• Consignment sale- We went to two consignment sales and a bunch of yard sales and got tons of great bargains.
• Shut off computer 6 nights to save energy- I shut off the computer lots this week and turned it off every time I left the house so it was much better behaved this week but I also didn't get a lot of work done because the computer was off :)
• Finish reading Forever Friday by Timothy Lewis- Finished and review posted.
• Read next book in the pile by Robyn Carr or Beverly Lewis (hopefully both)- Started with Robyn Carr and got a lot read but after the family came into town, I didn't make as much progress as I would have liked.

Home Management Goals

• Clean dishes, counters and floors at least 5 days of the week- And then some with company in town, the kitchen was a mess most of the time and took a lot to keep under control.
• Clean dishes one night and not wait until the morning- I got everything cleaned up on Monday night except one pot that I left to soak overnight.  I decided to get it all done on Tuesday night :) Woo Hoo mission accomplished.  It was a mess most of the week but I spent a lot of time doing dishes.

Blog Goals

• Post one post everyday (schedule 7 posts so that can spend more time with family)- I got a lot of posts up this week with the end of the month and all of things that I needed to get done so way more then 7.
• Review book reviews completed during the week (if done)- Done and posted.
• Work on a few posts to work ahead for the coming week- I am behind on the getting prepared thing but I hope that I will do better next week because I didn't get work done on the weekend as I normally do because my parents were visiting.
• Post Sunday Weekly Goals, Menu Plan Monday, Kid Wednesday and Thrifty Thursday Tip- I got them all up and posted for the week without any problems.
