3 in 30: and now for december

first a recap of last month's goals:


1. have grandpa's house cleared of my stuff, except the freezer stuff that we'll keep there.
done.  
2. have at least one meal weekly (preferably the evening meal) that is vegetarian or even vegan
i've been successful, and have usually done more than 1 meal a week, considering i bring a vegetarian lunch somewhat often.  yay veggies :-)
3. MOVE.  500 minutes or more of exercise.
i didn't quite make it, but because i was sick for awhile i'm giving myself a pass here.  i was about 50 minutes short of 500.  frustrating because 500 is not THAT many, but i'll get there :-)


now for december's goals!


1.  get both guest rooms in working order (read: guests don't have to sleep between boxes...) and the garage organized
2.  MOVE.  i'm sticking with the 500 minute mark until i make it, and then i'll increase it :-)
3.  come in well under budget in at least 3 of our categories this month.  this is clearly a combined effort with my husband, but we did really well this past month so i see no reason to not make it a goal!

3 in 30: the november ones

visit home of 3 in 30 here

one of these days i'll be good about checking in weekly.
but i'm not making that a goal just yet ;-)


so.  first, here's the october progress




1.  get the house i used to live in (anthony's grandpa's) completely cleared of all my junk.
(there's a fantastic hammock, a few random boxes, some trash...we're working on it an hour at a time, basically)
well, we aren't completely done...but our deadline is now november 15.  


2.  (gulp) file my taxes since they're due right at the end of the honeymoon...
filed!


3.  find a home for every wedding present in a cabinet, display, etc...and give away all items they "replace"
in progress, but more done than not.  we have a couple of special pieces that i still need to find the perfect spot for, and there are a few duplicates still to return.  but everything that we're donating is in a box in the garage ready for a's sister to look through for first dibs and then we'll find other homes for the rest!




and now for my november goals!


1. rolling over: have grandpa's house cleared of my stuff, except the freezer stuff that we'll keep there.
2. have at least one meal weekly (preferably the evening meal) that is vegetarian or even vegan
3. MOVE.  500 minutes or more of exercise.


and the unofficial one is to blog at least 30 times this month.  that's one a day, yes, but days like today hold two posts, so...

3 in 30: the october edition

that's right, i'm starting back up again :-)  on this first day of october with not *that* much goin gon in my life...ha!

so here are my 3 goals for the next 30 days

1.  get the house i used to live in (anthony's grandpa's) completely cleared of all my junk.
(there's a fantastic hammock, a few random boxes, some trash...we're working on it an hour at a time, basically)
2.  (gulp) file my taxes since they're due right at the end of the honeymoon...
3.  find a home for every wedding present in a cabinet, display, etc...and give away all items they "replace"

that should definitely keep me busy for the next 30 days, considering there's a wedding and honeymoon in there too!

3 in 30: march checkin

quick checkin here!

• drink at least 3 glasses of water per day so far i'd say about 5 out of 7 days per week this is happening. i'm working on it!
• try at least 4 new recipes well, i'm gonna be doubling up one of these weeks because i have NOT been HOME for the last few nights...so it just hasn't happened.
• carve out at least 30 minutes of time per day for me.  this cannot include wedding planning or doing laundry... ;) this one, i'm happy to say, is happening.  perhaps 1 day in the last few that it hasn't!

3 in 30: march

so i started this in february, and am continuing on because it was kinda fun...and pretty effective :)

so here are this month's goals

• drink at least 3 glasses of water per day (i know that's pathetic, but my water intake of the moment is pretty pathetic too...)
• try at least 4 new recipes
• carve out at least 30 minutes of time per day for me.  this cannot include wedding planning or doing laundry... ;)

by the way, here's how i did last month:

* exercise at least 4 times each week...and stop using that "busy" excuse!
(i managed this at least 3 out of the 4 weeks, so that's not bad :D)
* eat at least 1 fruit and 1 veggie each day
(well, that was a small goal, but i'm not convinced the fruits always happened.  i'm just not a fruit girl.  however, i'm pretty sure i got in at least 3-4 servings of vegetables every day.)
* sleep. 6 - 7 hours at LEAST per night. this means when i have to get up at 5:15
(this didn't always happen, but steps toward the right direction.  i think i got between 5.5 and 7 hours most nights, which is MUCH better that what i was doing before.  so this is an ongoing goal for sure)

what are your month's goals?

february's 3 in 30

i love the idea of this.
3 goals
30 days

it takes 30 days to establish (or break) habits. so this fits completely into that important formula. 3 small bites out of what i want to do...30 days to complete.

so here are my goals for this month. i'll be checking in on fridays...this week is called roll call, so i'm just putting my 3 down and signing in on the link.

•  exercise at least 4 times each week...and stop using that "busy" excuse!
•  eat at least 1 fruit and 1 veggie each day
•  sleep. 6 - 7 hours at LEAST per night. this means when i have to get up at 5:15 (yuuuucccck) i need to be in bed by 11:15 at the LATEST. 

(are you reading this sweetie? that means we have to be OFF the phone by then ;) but for REAL.)

i'm looking forward to this month -- should be interesting and FUN!
