After almost 4 weeks of doing very well with my goals- only a few minor slipups- I have to confess, last week I achieved none of my goals- past or current. Instead, I did everything I could think of to get rid of a headache/ migraine/ weird spacy feeling that I’ve been suffering from for about 2 1/2 weeks. So, that included drive-thru’s for pop, laying in bed instead of riding my bike. Cooking and eating dinner at the table- what’s that? I did do game night at church and I played games with my son and nephew. So, iI guess I accomplished one goal. As for the envelope thing, I was never able to get to the bank to get the cash to fill them last week so that didn’t get done either. On a good note, my dh told me several times that I really need to keep up with that so it doesn’t fall by the wayside. I take that as a good sign that he has accepted the system! On the other hand, he hasn’t accepted it enough to actually go to the bank to get the cash and fill the envelopes! But, to quote Dave Ramsey, “Baby Steps!”.
So, today was a good day. No headaches! I went to the health store yesterday and got something new. I’m not sure if it’s helping or if my migraine thought it had tormented me long enough. But, either way, I’ll take it! Ironicaly, yesterday I finally had enough and scheduled a massage for today. (my splurge from our tax check) So, even though my headache was gone, I enjoyed some pampering. Actually, she put some things back inplace and it wasn’t all relaxing. But, it was definitely wonderful!
This week, I will do my best to accomplish my previous goals and work on my new ones. So, here is the list of old and new-
1) Use the envelopes
2) No caffeine (except for when I was suffering from my migrane yesterday)
3) No drive- thru’s (except for migraine)
4) 18 minutes on the bike at least 3 times- usually more
5) Play a game with family
6) Try the yoga DVD I just renewed from the library without even looking at the first week I borrowed it
7) Drink at least 8 glasses of water a day (this seems to be harder than it looks)
Ok. I’m going to stop there. Wish me luck!
Tomorrow is Another Day
