I ordered and received an exercise video, but have yet to open it. That's all I've done. I'd say this one is so far a Fail with a capital F.
Goal #2: Hem pants and get out of these sweats and yogies.
Half way there. I've made a stack of everything that needs to be altered.
Goal #3: Plan, a full month at a time: dinners, the kids' meals, my lunches, and an activity with the kids for each weekday
My new calendar rocks, just as I thought it would. Look at how wonderfully large it is. January's dinners went well. Were adjusted as needed, of course, but I loved the month long schedule. Sundays now call for a grocery list only and no scheduling, which is great. And I have a whole month to work on the next schedule. And I can just reuse whole months once I get a few done, if I want to. February is the first month for planned lunches, but have decided it's not worth the trouble doing. The scheduled kid's activity is on once a week for now. And I also scheduled out my "chores". Which I will gradually be able to follow.
Goal #4: Shop Costco once a month, and major grocery shopping once a month, with weekly trips for spoilables.
So far mostly good.
Goal #5: Update my checkbook and budget worksheets once a week.
I redesigned my budgeting system and now update off of my receipts each night, or when I have them. Much better than trying to figure out my purchases off of statements 2 or 3 or 4 months down the line (who woulda thought?). Forces me to think twice before buying. So far, I have this goal in the bag. Only 11 more months to go.
