Update!

Since we've made it through a whole month (already) I figure it's a good time to give an update on my 2017 goals:


  1. I've already posted several times this year, so I'm going to say that I'm right on track with hitting my goal to maintain this blog and make regular posts (yes, I'm disregarding the fact that I forgot to write my usual Friday post. 😉)
  2. If you haven't been following along on Goodreads, I've read 10 books so far this year.  That puts me about 6 books ahead of schedule!
  3. So far this year, I've watched 20 movies, 15 of which were new to me.  I updated my movie list so you can see what I watched. You will notice some trends, I'm sure. 
  4. I feel pretty good about this goal because it looks like it will be accomplished by the end of the week.  Now, this is in good part due to income tax, but we've also saved like crazy.  I can't wait to officially check this off!
  5. Once #4 is done, we'll start putting all of our saving efforts into working toward our vacation, which will probably be at the end of the year.
  6. Okay, I have not actually gone to the gym twice per week, however, I have been working out at home.  I started a 30 day flat belly challenge with Ms. Attitude, plus I've been learning yoga and doing some morning routines as well.  You can see the challenge here.  I'll keep you posted on whether or not our friendship survives this challenge! 😂
  7. I am glad to report that this afghan is almost done.  I'm going to try and finish it up and then I'll post a picture so everyone can see.  Little A picked out neon colors and he wanted vertical stripes.  
  8. As it's only February, I'm going to hold off a little longer before I start some plants, but I will let you know when I get that going.
  9. Oh man, I really need to get started on this goal of cleaning out our closets and drawers.  We have so many clothes that we don't (or can't) wear and I would feel much better getting that out of the house.  Need motivation...
  10. Yeah, the garage is not going to get done until the city-wide spring clean up in April.
  11. I don't know if I'll be able to avoid the meltdown.  Unless, maybe, preemptive medicating is in order?
I hope your goals are going well, too.  Feel free to share in the comments section!
