Happy Friday Friends! I am so excited for this week to be done. It's been too long.

First off, I just wanna say Happy 17th Birthday to my sister, Amie. She is so good with Hailey and I couldn't have asked for a better Auntie and Godmother for Hailey. I am so proud of the young woman she has become. I know she will be a great role model for Hailey as she gets older. I love you!!

Do you see this? 4-6 inches yesterday and another 1-2 today. I call BS Mother Nature! Grrr. But hopefully it doesn't stick around cause it's gonna be damn near 60 degrees on Monday! Yay!

After a week of not working out or being able to get to the gym, I was back at it this last Wednesday. It felt so good to sweat and get moving.

That's all I got this week! Hope everyone has a great weekend!!

What can I say about this lady other than I love her to the moon and back! In the almost 11 years that I have been with my Husband, we have been through so much together. She has always been there as someone I can talk to and definitely laugh with! I have road-tripped and vacationed with her more than any other person on this planet (including my Husband), which says a lot. As you can see below, we like to take selfies!!


I love you so much Green Gramma and Happy 74th Birthday!

Here are my Goals for April 2014!

 photo One_zps82e90047.jpg

Meal Planning.

I have started a wee bit, but I really need to start kicking it into high gear and get organized. 
I always start and make some progress and then fall off the bandwagon and let it go.

Stay on top of dishwasher/dishes.

I've gotten so much better about this chore these last couple months, but I need to continue to stick with it and not let it go for more than 2 days. 
This is my most hated chore and my Husband knows this!

30 minutes a day.

Set a goal of at least 30 minutes when I get home to get Hailey and I settled, dogs fed and settled, dinner started and other little miscellaneous chores around the house (i.e. dishes), before I get distracted by TV and social media.

Gym time at least 3 times a week.

I've been so good about this the last couple months and got into such a routine. 
I wrote HERE about my favorite Zumba instructor cancelling one of her weekly classes (HUGE BUMMER), but do need to find something new in April to fill that void. 
I've been wanting to try Yoga, but a very beginner yoga since I have never done it. 
Does anyone have any DVD recommendations?

Jillian Michaels DVD.

I bought the 6 week Six-Pack abs video last year and had such high hopes. 
Truth is, I haven't touched it.
I wanna change that.

Drink water.

I've gotten a lot better with this, and have pretty much given up all pop (GASP!) and MOST coffee, but once again I need to kick it into high gear.

Lunch to work.

This is a huge one for me. 
I am not a huge leftover type person, but I am trying to change that. 
It's definitely a work in progress.

Upstairs loft area.

Organize this area of the house. 
It's kind of our catch all place. 
We put things up there and then totally forget about it.
I've been wanting to do this for awhile now, so no time like the present.

More fruits and veggies.

I have been such a slacker lately on eating my good foods (especially veggies) but, I want and NEED to change that.

Stay sane.
