Weekly Check-in

Physically: A little head-achy and allergy, no gym.

Emotionally: Relieved last week was over.

Spiritually: Need to read my scriptures more often, but still good.

Goal: I don't have a goal. Life is too stressful to add one more 'to-do' like a goal. I'm trying to re-think this whole weekly check-in thing. I like the idea of a weekly check-in, but I want to change the format.

Weekly Check-in

Physically: Normal. No pain, no headaches, but no gym. Same as last week.

Emotionally: Still stressed and worried, but working on it.

Spiritually: Better this week, but still could be better.

Goal: Last week's goal was to complete a project. It took me all week to do it, but I got the pantry cleaned out and re-organized.

My goal this week is to complete another project.

Weekly Check-In

Physically: Normal. No pain, no headaches, but no gym.

Emotionally: Stressed and worried.

Spiritually: Okay, but could be better.

Goal: Last week's goal was to to survive the first week of school without having a break-down and yelling. I succeeded with the not having a break down, but I failed with the yelling. I only lasted to Tuesday with yelling at Michael, but I lasted until Thursday with the boys, so that was a positive -ish. I also didn't have a mental break down, so that's in the win column too. I'm calling this one a wash.

My goal this week is to complete a project.

Weekly Check-in

Physically: A little more tired than usual, I feel like my blood sugar is wonky, but other than that, I'm good.

Emotionally: Stressed due to back to school and pack meeting.

Spiritually: Better. Went to the temple this week and that really helped me

Goal: Last week's goal was to establish a night time routine with the boys in preparation for going back to school. We succeeded AND failed at this. I can't in good conscience call this one a win.

My goal this week is to survive the first week of school without having a break-down and yelling.

Weekly Check-in

Physically: Normal. No pains. Managed to get to the gym three times this week, only once was a yoga class, but it was a good yoga class. Also went two days without soda. All very good things.

Emotionally: Better than last week, but I'm worried that it's because I'm feeling a little numb.

Spiritually: Needs to be better. I'm going to work on this.

Goal: Last week's goal was to make goals for the rest of the year and put a plan in place to accomplish them. This was completed. I have discovered that I have over estimated my abilities and I need to readdress some things, but I consider this a win.

My goal this week is to establish a night time routine with the boys in preparation for going back to school.

Weekly Check-In

Physically: Sore throat, back hurts, butt hurts, but that's from going to the gym, so I'm okay with it.

Emotionally: A little grumpy. Feeling the stress of the oncoming school year which is making me mad because summer's not even close to being over

Spiritually: Could be better, could be worse.

Goal: Last week's goal was to organize the kitchen. Well, I washed the floor and cleaned off the island at least. Still looks like a bomb hit it, but that's not my fault. I didn't make the mess so I'm not cleaning it.

My goal this week is to make goals for the rest of the year and put a plan in place to accomplish them

Spiritually: Better

Weekly Check-in

Physically: Tired because of the heat, post Fourth of July festivities, and trying to get Huey all ready for the National Jamboree.

Emotionally: Grumpy because of tiredness, and because summer's half over and we haven't done anything awesome. Sad because Huey's going to be gone for three weeks. Anxious because Huey's going to be gone for three weeks.

Spiritually: Okay, level, normal.

Goal: Last week's goal was to go to yoga three times. I totally failed. I forgot about the gym being closed for the 4th, so one class was cancelled, and PMS happened.

My goal this week is to make my lunch every day.

Weekly Check-in

Physically: Good, except my fingers and ankles are all swollen due to the 100+ degree heat. It's very uncomfortable.

Emotionally: Perfectly normal.

Spiritually: Totally average.

Goal: Last week's goal was to go to yoga twice. Mission accomplished!

My goal this week is to go to yoga three times.

A very Happy Canada Day!

Weekly Check-In

Physically: Not tired. A little sore from yoga, which is a good thing. I have the energy I need, but I still wish I had more.

Emotionally: Okay, I guess. Missing Huey and then fighting with Huey is never fun.

Spiritually: I've been better, but I could be worse.

Goal: Last week's goal was to drink 2 oz of water for every oz of soda I drank. I had success with the one for one goal, not so much with the two for one goal, however, I went two days without any soda at all, so this is a win.

My goal this week is to go to yoga twice.

Weekly Check-in

Physically: A little tired and a little stiff, but okay

Emotionally: Feeling grateful and hopeful.

Spiritually: Where I need to be

Goal: My goal last week was to go to Yoga as much as possible and to drink 1 oz of water for every 1 oz of soda. I was only able to get ot Yoga once, and it was a struggle, but I'm really glad I did it. I was successful with the water drinking. I discovered that I cut out the afternoon soda really quickly because it was really hard to have to drink all that water after the second soda which is a super good thing!

I'm still reading my scriptures every night.

My goal this week is to drink 2 oz of water for ever 1 oz of soda that I drink.

Weekly Check-In

Physically: Tired, but okay

Emotionally: Grumpy because I'm so tired, but otherwise okay

Spiritually: In a good place.

Goal: My goal last week was to go to Yoga as much as possible. Yoga is on Tues, Wed and Sat. Tues was our monthly Relief Society meeting, so I missed on Tues. Wed Huey had an activity that he had to be driven to, so I missed Wed. Sat Aunt Flo hit me with a vengeance, and ain't no way I'm twisting myself into a pretzel when that kind of stuff is going down.

I'm still reading my scriptures every night.

In addition to the do-over with the yoga, my goal this week is to drink 1 oz of water for ever 1 oz of soda that I drink.

Weekly Check-in

Physically: Normal. Off caffein (again), so not so tired because I'm sleeping properly. It's all good

Emotionally: Normal. A little angry and edgy, but sometimes this is normal. I'm totally stressed about Huey, but I'm trying to have faith and not try to control the things that I have no control over.

Spiritually: On the right track.

Goal: My goal last week (last two weeks, sorry) was to read my scriptures before bed every night. We went camping on Memorial day weekend and I didn't get to read my scriptures, but other than that, I read my scriptures every night. I'm so proud of myself.

My goal this week is to go to Yoga as much as I can.

Weekly Check-in

Happy Monday!

Ah Monday. Everyone complains about you, but not me!! Monday is the beginning. The weekend is over. We celebrated the week, we had some good times, and now we have the beginning of a new week! A new chance! Yay for beginnings!

Remember these? Thought I should check-in.

Physically: Sore, but that's because I spent the weekend in bed because of some weird achy flu. My whole body hurt. Even my eyelashes hurt. I'm feeling better now.

Emotionally: Normal. Not stressed, not anxious, not anything., but not numb either. I guess this means I'm satisfied? This is so good.

Spiritually: Um, I don't know the word for this. Guilty? Scared? I know that I'm not where I should be and I feel bad about that but I'm too scared to do what I need to do to get where I need to be.

Goal: This is always where I stop typing and stare off into space. It seems that every time I set a goal I accomplish everything except the goal and the goal becomes the hardest thing to do. My goal this week is to read my scriptures before bed every night.

Weekly Check-In

Physically - Not great. Cramps. Neckache from so much reading. No yoga. Weight is stable though and I've been off caffeine, so my tiredness has stablized.

Emotionally - Normal. Still processing some things, but I've been able to breathe through some things that cause me anxiety instead of flipping out and they have worked out for the positive.

Spiritually - Broken down. That's all I have to say about that.

Goal - Last week's goal was another fail. I am so frustrated. I don't know what to set as a goal, so my goal is to not set a goal this week.

Check-In

Physically - I can say 'fine', but I can't say good, right? I'm okay. I've been really really tired this week due to not sleeping, and adjusting to going off of Dr. Pepper. I feel like I will be sleeping normally soon, so I should be able to function like a normal person in a few days. No headaches, but neckaches. No yoga either.

Emotionally - Better. DH and I had a big long talk about some things and now I am processing a whole bunch of new information and working on trust issues. I am also trying to have faith in those that I love and trying to not be so controlling. It will be freeing, but it's still a process.

Spiritually - Okay. I could be doing better and I need to be doing better. I am going to try to focus on reading my scriptures, having real prayers, and going to the temple.

Goal - To take the names to the temple.

Check-In

Physically – Normal. No headaches, back and neck don’t hurt too badly. Sleeping okay and have enough energy to cook, clean and run the boys around. All tests from the doctor are either normal or of no concern. Weight is under control. Keep missing Yoga. Need to get back on that horse! Need to get off Dr. Pepper and fast food. Spring is coming, I can smell it, so it can happen. Can’t ask for much more that that!

Emotionally – Unbalanced but hopeful. Now that my physical health is taken care of, it’s time to take care of the emotional/mental. I need to BREATHE! Watch this space for more info coming soon…

Spiritually – A little rocked because of the emotional stuff, but not too. A little disheartened because of the lack of temple, but I can fix it. DH gave me a blessing on Tuesday and it was so so helpful. I love that guy. So. Much.

Goal – I keep failing, but the goal is the temple. Come heck or high water!! I did talk to my friend who has a daughter Huey’s age and arranged for them to do baptisms together, but I haven’t scheduled with the temple yet – but I will!
