Sidenote: I was asked to update also on a drawing commitment I had made (to my mom). The update is: I can't find the drawing I had made so far, but when I do I will continue with working on it. I have been practicing the tribal part, and may end up just starting over with the outline that I still have. If you want to see what I've done so far, let me know!
So, to update, continue reading:
1. Fit back into a size 8 and be healthy about it.
a. Work out at least two hours each week
Realistically I've probably only done about an hour each week of real working out. There was a lot going on this month, and I just didn't prioritize it. Now I'm paying for it, as I haven't shrunk at all and I have a wedding to attend this Saturday with nothing to wear.b. Stop eating so much junk food. Eat fruits and vegetables instead.
I've done pretty good with this task overall, I feel like I've been eating less junky crap and making a real concerted effort to snack on fresh fruit. I've also increased how much vegetables go on my dinner plate. Now to find a way to add F&V to breakfast...2. Pay off the car loan.
a. Find my cheques
Did this! Had to order more, but after I ordered them, I found my old ones. So now I have enough cheques to last me about 20 years...b. Stay within budget
Despite January being pretty tight at the beginning (curse you, Christmas!), since both WW and I got 3 paycheques this month, we're WAY ahead. Huzzah!c. Track spending and budget
Did this for all of January!3. Write more
a. Edit my NaNoWriMo2012 novel to readability and have people read it.
Didn't even touch it. Yes I am shame...b. Continue working on the first draft of my other novel
Again, didn't even touch it. I told you it was a rough month!c. Add new content to this blog and to my Helium.com profile every week.
Did half of this, I've been updating this blog fairly frequently, so that's exciting! Helium has been neglected this month aside from today, better luck next month! (However, despite barely touching my Helium account [and writing nothing until the last day of the month], I made 1$ in revenue! Woo!)4. Finish 3 of my university courses
a. one at a time, starting with Introductory Composition
Working on it, finished Unit 1 and am halfway through the reading for Unit 2. The first assignment for Unit 2 is due Feb 19, so I am on track!
So there you have it! I also made a goal to myself to start making Youtube videos, which I kept secret because I didn't think I'd actually do it, but I have two posted now! If you haven't already, and you want to look at my face click HERE for the first, and HERE for the second!
How has your January gone? Productive? Non-productive? New changes or old habits? Share them here!
Peace, love, and ACHEIVEMENT UNLOCKED!
