Mid-week sweep!

I know how book club planning is going (and THANK YOU again for taking that on!), but what else is going on? Have the other things on your plan happened yet?

Mid-week sweep! I feel like I know how your first goal (about bedtime) is going. I know getting out of the house has been challenging. How are you feeling about that?

I hope everything is going well. Looking forward to reading all about it!

This is a “sorta” mid-week sweep because some of your items aren’t due yet. I see you’ve been posting, which is great!

How are you feeling as your work life ramps up?

Mid-week sweep! How is everything going? Have you been avoiding grazing? How’s the walking going? And the planks? I hope you’re doing ok!

So for me:

• Finances: I don’t wanna talk about it. But I have an accounting software program called Xero for BF that I need to incorporate + I heard that Mint is a good app.
• Schedule: my old school planner book has been working fabulously.
• Ideas: Evernote! Seriously I need to do an Evernote training one of these days. It’s changed my life.

Kudos on the “early” bed time! I’m just so glad you’re back to posting. I really missed you.

I think you’ve made an important observation.

Since this is a change that’s not going away anytime soon, look at your routine and see what you can do to still be as organized as you want to be without being so stressed every day. I’d encourage you to think about “batching” things if you can. Batching is the process of taking one chunk of time to…[Read more]

Better than I really expected. Still stressed over my husband’s job situation but I think it will be at least next week before we hear about any more new developments.

Hope you feel better soon Nikki.  I really need to get out of the house, so I think I’m going to make a quick run to Starbucks.  Heard they have a maple pecan latte now.  Won’t be too bad as long as I get nonfat milk.

breakfast was a premier protein drink

lunch is a slice of rye bread with 2 slices of cheese

<p style=”text-align: left;”>I’m a bit late posting today. I think that I’m just running behind on everything.</p>

It’s official. I’m cursed. I feel a bad cold coming on. Still I went to Zumba (had a hard time keeping up but I did it!)

Food:

• Cold Zoodle-sketti salad
• a lunchmeat roll up
• a power crunch bar

and I am about to take some Tylenol cold and say goodnight cuz my face hurts!

I had an appointment with my eye Dr today, so I got out of the house.  Last month when I was at the YWM conference in NOLA, my left eye started flashing light really bad (on Saturday). I wasn’t very concerned since my right eye has been doing that off and on for more than a year.  It has something to do with the vitreous in my eye pulling away.  …[Read more]

So far this week:  Sunday got to bed at 3:02, Monday at 5:07 (not so good)

drinking: Sunday about 45 ounces, Monday 56 ounces

Scott took me to lunch Monday, went to eye Dr today, so good on going out so far.  However, I’m really dopey and dizzy today because I’m weaning off of my paxil, so tomorrow might just be fetching the mail

about 1/2 d…[Read more]

Stress is definitely starting to take a toll on my husband and I. He’s eating too much and everything I eat or drink makes me feel sick to my stomach. Where I used to get about five hours of sleep a night, in the last two weeks it’s dropped to three. If his work would just tell us what’s going on, I could handle whatever it is. It’s the not…[Read more]
