April Goal Review

At Home:

- Get the living room "guest" ready.  Matt and I both have a terrible habit of setting things down and then leaving them there.  This creates a BIG mess!  My mom is helping me work on the living room to make it look nicer and more guest friendly, so I would LOVE to get this done in April.

Complete...ish!  We still have some ways to go to get it completely "guest ready", but we made some serious progress this month!

- Cook dinner at least 4 nights a week (I did this last month, but it's something I would really like to continue since it's healthier AND saves us money).

Complete!  This is a great goal, that I plan to continue. 

Marriage:

- Do something new with Matt.  By "new" I just mean something out of the ordinary.  We pretty much do the same things all the time, and we've been homebodies a lot lately.  I've read LOTS of articles that say doing things outside of your routine helps you bond.

Yeah we really didn't do this at all...but it's a great idea and hopefully we will get to it next month.  My birthday is in May, so I know we'll be doing a lot of things for that.

- Date night once a week.  I don't know if this will actually happen this month, but I love the idea, so I'm putting it here so that I won't forget!

Again, didn't happen.  There are LOTS of movies we want to see coming up soon though, so maybe we will make this happen in May.

Misc:

- Spend at least 3 nights with friends.  I know of at least one that is a given since Steph's birthday is next week!  And I guess I could count dinner with Sabrina and Tara Friday and Grayson's soccer game with Samantha Saturday, but I'm not going to!

Complete!  I actually spent MORE than 3 nights with my wonderful friends!

- Get some exercise (especially outdoors) 3 times a week.  Since I've rejoined Weight Watchers, I really need to start being more active.  And I love to be outside, so both I could easily kill two birds with one stone here!

This didn't really happen, however I did walk with my friends a couple of times and we are going to try to make it a weekly habit.  I've been standing up most of the time at work instead of sitting down now too, so I feel like that is a move in the right direction.



Well for my first time doing this, I felt like I did an ok job...now onto May!
