DonnaP Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Right now I'm involved in a Wellness Challenge at work called "1000 Strong." It basically challenges participants to do 1000 reps of any form of strength training or cardio exercise over the course of one month. So far I've been doing jumping jacks (yes, they are on the list), push ups, crunches, squats. I plan to add in weight bearing exercises too.

Virgo Posted October 6, 2015 Author Share Posted October 6, 2015 My main goal for today was to make bath bombs for Christmas pamper baskets. We're celebrating Christmas Thursday with Phil's side. To early! !! I'm also working on cleaning the bathrooms and laundry. Tonight I'm going to start cutting fabric squares for the shower curtain I'm going to make. I want it to look like a rag quilt.

IfIonlycould Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 WHAT? you are celebrating Christmas...boy, I thought the retail stores pushed us into the holidays....! I'm here to admit I got nothing done on my list...ended up working for the client on thurs and friday WAY later than expected...all good...but once again my stuff goes on hold. Then went away with sister for the weekend who treated me to a hotel stay and tickets to Jay Leno , so nothing but fun was accomplished! I may just come back here and post my goals for the MONTH.

Virgo Posted October 7, 2015 Author Share Posted October 7, 2015 Yes we are celebrating Christmas but we're not happy about it. We have family from out of state that are flying in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twistedmensa Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 I managed to find most of our Halloween decorations last night. I planned on setting them up today, but it rained...and hailed...and a small tornado actually touched down a few miles from my house. Very unusual weather for these parts. So I guess I will put he decorations up tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DonnaP Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 I just completed a HUGE goal -- I was asked to participate in an event at Quinnipiac University, where I work. The event is called "Dancing with the QU Stars." The Quinnipiac Ballroom Dance Society has a number of talented students, who each get paired with a faculty or staff partner and learn one dance for the night. My partner and I had to learn a fancy foxtrot. It was nerve-wracking and I wasn't sure I could pull it off, but it was great and I totally enjoyed the experience. There is a clip up on Facebook. I don't know if this link will work - but give it a try: https://www.facebook.com/donna.pintek/videos/pcb.10209553699148697/10209553689548457/?type=3&theater Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trying Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Donna that's awesome! And thanks for bringing back the thread, I am needing to make more short term goals because my long term goals are overwhelming me lately. This week's goals: 1. Start my nutritional program 2. Send in deposit for college for son #2 (final decision has been made) and complete all paperwork 3. Meet with contractor to get windows and siding ordered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virgo Posted April 12, 2016 Author Share Posted April 12, 2016 Today I need to hopefully straighten out my taxes. I went to file last week and there were issues with the 1099Rs for me and my 3 daughters. Getting through to someone has been a challenge. Yesterday I ordered new lenses for my middle daughter. I have an appointment Friday for annual blood work. I'm also going to order a granite counter top for one of our bathrooms and set up an installation appointment. It's about time I finish that bathroom! ! I have a few other projects to complete in there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mizpah Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Since having my daughter almost two years ago, I've needed to write a will. This morning, I met with a lawyer, got it all set up for drafting, and created a trust for my life insurance for my daughter. I still need to decide who her legal guardian will be in the case of both me and her father dying (seems an impossible decision - no one seems perfect or acceptable), but otherwise it's taken care of! Felt like a monumental and overwhelming and expensive task. Glad I finally got my $h!t together to do this for her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmg19 Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 1. Clean out closets. 2. Bag and donate all outgrown winter clothes. 3. Take books to library to donate. Next 2 weeks are spring cleaning and I'm doing 1 room each evening after school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmg19 Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 I miss this thread. Writing down goals and revisiting them weekly helps me stay focused. Thus, bumping up this thread. This week's goals: 1. Get now teenage boys to sort all the outgrown clothes from last summer and make list of what is needed. 2. Snail mail all birthday, graduation, and get well cards. 3. See a sunrise and sunset at the beach this summer. Not exactly a weekly goal but a much needed mental health goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captains wife Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Ill join as I'm trying to refocus. 1) Continue to work on a plan for my son's development as he is heading to school full time this Sept. I have bought some "fine motor skills" supplies and I am engaging the nanny to work with him during the days I am at work. This plan is kicking off this week. 2) Keep to new diet...I really slipped in the past few months and I very focused on losing 10 more pounds which will be done via diet and exercise. 3) Plan a romantic evening for NG's birthday (in the week ahead) which is coming up in 2.5 weeks - he has been so sweet to me and I would like to do something for him in return.
