Goals 9/5-9/11 revisited

This week really sucked as far as crossing off items goes.  I forgot about a doctor's appointment I had and Brady ended up going out of town Saturday.  Oh, well!


1) Paint the damn trim...  I didn't get anything done!  The weather was so humid that what I had recently done was sticky.  I'll wait for dry weather this week.
2) Get the kids clothes out for fall/winter weather.  Carter is done.
3) Workout at the gym Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday.  Things got thrown for a loop when plans changed mid-week.  I went to the gym twice and did a 2 mile walk/run in the neighborhood.
4) Bake bread with the boys again.  This was fun for all and it tasted great!  We didn't make bread, but I did allow the kids to play with play-doh and we did some fun arts and crafts with coffee filters.
5) Watch my in-laws take off in an air balloon Tuesday night.  The boys will think this is cool.  This got rescheduled due to wind.
6) Finish Emmy's photo book.  I didn't even look at it.
7) Take some time for myself.  I need it.  Sort of... I got to take an hour to nap, but I couldn't even sleep.
8) Put all laundry away instead of letting it sit in the laundry basket.
9) Look for bed options for Maddox.
10) Possibly move Emmy to Maddox's room and Maddox into Carter's.  We didn't buy a new bed so we couldn't move Emmy.

Goals 8/29-9/4 Revisited

1) Make homemade bread.
2) Work on getting the trim painted.
3) Workout Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Saturday.  My back was hurting pretty good so I missed a day.
4) Work on a menu and get a grocery list with coupons ready for a Friday shopping trip.
5) Work with Emmy on night sleeping habits.  This may be difficult as I think she is getting a tooth.
6) Do a special project with Carter.
7) Go to playground or feed the ducks with Maddox and Emmy while Carter is at school.
8) Remember to go to the back to school meeting on Thursday.
9) Work on having a pleasant attitude even when I'm stressed and overwhelmed.    I did this halfway because I'd find myself giving in to stress.
10) Let Brady sleep in on Wednesday.
