routines ROCK

most of the time, anyway.. lol
since I've been making daily goals for myself, no matter how small, it feels like an accomplishment! I've started working out in the morning again, too, not for very long, just a couple of minutes on the rebounder to get my blood flowing.
I've also decided to postpone my shop opening until February 5th and 6th. definitely not a bad thing, just the last week in January, I'm away for three days in Cambridge, so there's not going to be too much I can do. plus I have to finish crocheting a baby blanket,bunny, and hat and booties by next saturday. hopefully I'll finish the blanket this weekend, then I can get started on the easy stuff. so really, if I get ALL of that done THIS weekend, I only have a week to work on shop stuff. so now, I have 2 weeks! Woot!

wow

it's Monday again... the weekends go by too darned fast. anyway. since Wednesday, I've accomplished pretty much everything I wanted to do. except for on Saturday. I got absolutely nothing done on Saturday. a friend of mine called me up for an unexpected Sushi date at 2:30 in the afternoon. so I made a pig of myself and didn't even make dinner for Tim. I made a yummy stirfry on Sunday though. With lots of bean sprouts (Tim's favorite vegetable)to make up for it :)
Vision's 20/20, Woot! it might actually be better than 20/20, just causewhen this one particular optometrist checks me, he takes the microscope to my eyes first, which is essentially a very, very bright light, and it makes your eyes all watery and unable to focus. and THEN he uses the other machine to test your prescription. "what's better, 1 or 2?" so in March, if I get him I'm going to say something.

so Yesterday I did what I wanted to do. what I had planned. It felt like an accomplishment! here's what I have planned for today:

-eye appointment to see how my vision is.. I got Lasik almost 2 months ago and it's time to see how I see! DEFINITELY better than when I had glasses.

-blood donation.. pretty self explanatory. lol

-work on products for an hour and a half.. at least..

-practice guitar for 15 minutes

and of course clean a bit and make dinner.

let's get started! lol

New year

I've always thought that new years resolutions were a bit dumb. Everyone always resolves to eat healthier, lose weight, be a better person, spend more time with family, enjoy life more, quit smoking, quit drinking... While these are all valid goals, they could be done at ANY TIME OF THE YEAR. If one needs a date to do something, why not at the beginning of the month? That gives you 12 chances a year to change yourself. and your habits, and possibly even start over your goal you failed at last month.
My resolution for 2011 is to make a resolution every new moon. I suspect a lot of my resolutions are going to be wedding related, that's fine though :)
Today having a new moon, my resolution for this phase is to set a daily schedule for myself, not an unbreakable timetable, but a set of daily goals I'd like to accomplish. Also to have a booth in Gibraltar weekend market by the last weekend of the month (29th,30th). Seems like more than one goal, but the schedule is to get my ass in gear working on stock for the booth. This is a goal that I've been procrastinating on for a while.
Goals for today include cleaning for a bit (rather than completely ignoring it) and work on gaining stock for 2 hours minimum. I have a meeting this afternoon so the list is short :)

In other news- our mortgage is down to the 112's! WOOT! slow and steady :)

Have a good day!
