Monday, Monday, Monday

  • Good morning fellow chicks! Again, I'm up at the crack of dawn. I got up at 5 this morning instead of 6 to see Drew off on a business trip to Boston. I can handle getting up at 6 every morning, but 5:00 just plain hurts.

    Welcome Daphne -- of course you can come post with us! We'll keep you strong and you can help keep us strong.

    Today is pretty busy. Golfing this morning, then getting my hair cut and highlights retouched this afternoon. Good thing there isn't much there that requires me to be really sharp because it just isn't going to happen today.

    Ok, now for a deep thought to keep the thread busy. Where would you like to be a year from now? And what steps will you take in the meantime to accomplish this? In vivid detail, please. This is something a WW leader did with us once, and it was pretty awesome. It helped me see exactly where I wanted to be in that year. Of course, I had to go and get myself pregnant with Aaron, so it didn't quite happen the way I planned it out, but still.

    I see myself weighing 130-140 lbs. I am living in my incredibly uncluttered and organized house (*snort*) that is decorated beautifully, just the way I love it. My job will be going well because during the third year of teaching the same subject area, I should have my lesson plans pretty well written out for any occasion at that point. I will have found a way to assert myself better so I don't have so much trouble saying no to people, and all of the yard projects I've been waiting on will be done.

    Very doable goals, I think. Especally since I went on a big organizing binge this past week and weekend. I have to still tackle the basement, attic, guestroom, and garage, but other than that, all of my cabinets / drawers / rooms / etc. have been completely organized and overhauled. We did yard work all day yesterday, so for the first time this summer, everything is trimmed at the same time (scary!). I am scheduling weekends on the calendar to complete my painting projects, because if I wait till there's a free weekend, it just won't happen. And I will take my prep time at work to keep myself organized and not get distracted and chatty with coworkers. I've moved my desk so it's harder to engage me in idle chit-chat, so I think that will help!

    Enough of the novel. TIme to go dust and vacuum the house so I can get some golfing and pampering in!

    Ciao!
  • Jayne I didn't see your thread b/c it wasn't at the top when I posted. I will answer your question on the other thread where others are. Make sense???
