Whew! Last week was a blur of craziness – hopefully I can slow things down a bit this week. Even with a busy week, I still accomplished quite a bit:
Last Week’s Goals
Business
- Complete 2 items from my master list each day – I did this most days, but not every – some days the “fires” just got me off course!
Two hours education– done!- Schedule May blog posts and Social Media posts – got started, but my system crashed and I never got back to finish!
Personal
Get up by 6:30 every day– 3 out of 5 – and Friday was pathetic . . .Stretch daily(here is why this is so important!) – done, and felt GREAT!Take a break for lunch every day (and do something enjoyable)– I did a good job of this – most days I just ate lunch downstairs (instead of at my desk) and then read for fifteen minutes or something relaxing like that, but one day I actually left the house and ran a few errands. Regardless of what I did, the days I took at least thirty minutes away from work were much more productive and enjoyable – I’ll definitely be keeping this practice up!- Tackle my most dreaded task FIRST each day – 4 out of 5 – and makes SUCH a difference in the day
Family
Special time with each kid– my son and I did a craft together one night, and my daughter and I had a Starbuck’s date one eveningGet prepared for May Birthdays– done, not that many so this was actually pretty easy 🙂
Household
- Spring Break Photo Book – downloaded pictures, so a start I guess!
Back on track with cleaning schedule– pretty close again – definitely doing a better job of maintaining a “decent” house – with two busy kids I can’t expect perfection!

What are your big goals for the week? Interested in a few easy changes you can make to improve your health – check out my Small Changes= Big Results series (which continues this week) for ideas – it’s free and fun! Pick a few and add them to your goal list!
I have found that tackling the worst task is very helpful as well. I loved “Eat That Frog” and all of the points he had to help with getting things done! 🙂 Enjoy the time with your kids during your “Happy Hour!”
Thanks Jenny – I do love that book too. My daughter actually talked me into Starbucks after school this week, so with their half priced frappucino’s this week, we may even make it twice!
