Goal Update

Monday is going to be my goal update day!  I will try to use this as a way to be held accountable for my weekly goals, and as I work towards my Monthly and Yearly Goals...


Each week I start Monday with a new outlook, telling myself that I am going to get everything on my list(s) accomplished and that I am still going to have time (and energy) to do other things as well, but by Thursday night I am feeling like the week is over and I just want to sleep in and take "time off" because it's the weekend!  Let's see if this week I make it through my entire list.


To Do This Week:


*Write a Letter to ODOT and Mail in the Ticket and Fee (For My Dear Husband)
*Celebrate Mom's Birthday!
*Spend Time with My "Little" (Especially Since We Missed Last Week's Visit!)
*Work on DeClutter Calendar
*Read Money Saving Mom's Budget (Check Out Her Site at www.moneysavingmom.com) 
*Work on Surveys, Panels, etc.




Update on Goals:


*Surveys - January has been Record Setting - $96.34 and the month is only 1/2 over!
*Couch to 5k - Week 1 is Finished & I am Ready to Start Week 2 tomorrow morning!
*Budget - We have been doing great at staying out of stores, only using gift cards for restaurants, and not buying anything we don't need, however... Vacation is Just around the corner & we decided to treat ourselves to a ski weekend at the end of the month!
*Baking - Homemade Cherry Pie for Sean's Birthday (twice because the first one didn't make it to his birthday... he was eating it for breakfast, lunch, & dinner!)




Set Your Self for Success by Using Goals and Discipline to Get There.  You never get any where if you don't try.

June Goals

After a peaceful weekend off of work (my last one for a couple of months) I woke up today with a renewed outlook on my life, again.  I was able to take the weekend to relax and focus on finding out where I want to put some energy into and where I need to pay less attention to. We only get one today.  We can spend it any way we want.  We can dwell on the past, plan for the future, or spend it in the moment.  I have my moments when each are important to me, but for now I have decided that I want to focus on the day at hand.  I need to take any time that I have to do something that I want to accomplish.  It may be large or small, but in the end I just need to get up and go!  I have been reading some new books lately and I have been learning a lot about myself in the process.  Things I have been scared of, vacations I want to take, habits I want to teach myself, as well the importance of being unique.   This month I have decided that I need t...

YouData.com

Looking for a quick, easy way to make some extra money?  Check out YouData. It is not a huge money maker, but the pennies add up with time, and it is always nice to see a few extra cents get added into the budget, for something that you normally do on a daily basis...look at ads and watch commercials! Here is a copy of my referral email if you would like to join under my account (which I would be grateful for), or you can always visit the site on your own to sign up! I found something that I think you will like. The company's name is YouData ( youdata.com ). They are trying to convince consumers like us that we should be the ones controlling our own data and selling our own attention, not third parties like broadcasters, newspapers, and spammers. By creating a MeFile at YouData.com, I now control what ads I see and when I see them. Best part - I am selling my attention directly to interested advertisers, for real money. That's right, I get paid fo...
