Resolution roundup.
The month isn’t quite over but since I’m down for the count with my second horrific cold of the year, I figure I have some time to catch up on this
1. Do one thing, once a month, to make my house more inviting and cozy.
I’m almost there. I am desperately trying to find time and energy to finish quilting and binding my quilt. I’m not sure if I’ll finish by the end of the month, but I am pleased that I’ve made headway on some other organizing tasks.
2. Exercise a minimum of 45 minutes/ 4x a week.
With the illnesses, this hasn’t been quite this amount, but much closer than I thought. I hope that I can kick this dumb cold so I can get to it.
3. Tackle a list I have of little home improvement/decluttering tasks like doing touch up paint, organizing drawers, etc. One thing per week.
This has been going really well! I have tackled quite a few tasks, but unfortunately, I have been remiss to document them photographically. I have redone our linen closet, decluttered our office/craft room, made a “donation station” and have been purging things as I clean, and cleaned and organized the toy corner. I will try to be better about taking before/after pics.
4. Donate at least $1000 to Heifer International
I will be donating at least $200 mid February.
5. Attend church 1x per month, in addition to hosting a bi weekly bible study.
I did host bible study, but won’t make it to church this month unless I am significantly better by Sunday.
6. Focus diet on whole, unprocessed foods. Aim to eat well 80% of the time.
I have definitely done this, and am really pleased about it. As a result, I am down 15 pounds since December 26th, 2011.
The other things are future ventures, so nothing to report there.
I feel really good about the progress I’ve made, and I’m looking forward to feeling well so that I can make even more progress!
