I was thinking for motivation it might be nice to have a thread to post our daily/weekly goals and check in if we wanted to. You could also post a one time goal if you want, really anything goes.
I am going to try actually meditating for 5 minutes a day. My plan is to make it an everyday thing, but I'll start with a goal of daily for the next week. I keep saying I am going to do it, and not doing it. I'll check back to let you know how it's going! |

Great idea!
Thank you! Right now, my only project is in getting through the next few days. One of the goals I have is to start injecting a medication I have been putting off for over 2 years. I am not 100% sure I "want" to do this. I do need to do it in order to delay deterioration related to Psoriatic Arthritis. uggh! I have much to do, but this is the biggest task, the most challenging task, at hand. Mostly because I have very mixed feelings.

Get to the grocery store. I've put it off and procrastinated so much that I had to stop at the corner store today for milk and bread for mum. It's my job to keep the larder full.

I just need to see my Doctor tomorrow about this huge Asthma flare and hopefully be able to handle the steroids that I need .... and hope it doesn’t kick my Bipolar sideways. It’s always a balancing act needing steroids

Three goals for me today:
1. Fold and put away some of my laundry (and maybe sew two things) 2. Go to my haircut appointment 3. Make a homemade salsa (hubby inflicted on me). I may need to go to the store for an ingredient 4. Clean up any messes I make Longer term goals: 1. Start tracking my eating again/meal planning 2. Start something that is preparation for future part-time work. |

My husband and I have made it a family goal to declutter our whole house and donate everything that we do not absolutely need or want. We feel that this will make our home life much simpler. We inherited the family home when my mother in law passed away and there is still a lot to go through. When my father passed away, I received the majority of his things and we also have 30 years of marriage "stuff accumulation". Over the past few years, we have done this a few times, but have still been a bit too sentimental about what really matters and we are going to do a serious paring down.
In reality, I can handle one or two drawers a day or maybe a cabinet. My goal today is the three drawers of my night stand. Yesterday I tackled two junk drawers in the kitchen. I know it doesn't sound like much, but I am chipping away at it until each weekend when my husband is able to make bigger dents. __________________ "I think I made you up inside my head." ~ Sylvia Plath |

Great job making goals everyone! Fern and Blue_bird nice work on getting them done, thanks for updating us!
I meditated for five minutes before work this morning. I think I might do another 5 tonight. My brain could use the mindfulness today. |
