New Month – New Goals
April 17, 2018
Yay – it’s April! Oh, wait, it’s January. No, it’s April. That’s how the weather has been since Easter weekend – cold with a little ice thrown in for good measure and barely any warm days. That leaves me feeling not great per usual and I need to have more energy. Today it’s lovely though and I decided I need to have a couple new goals for me as another school year ends and we transition into another season.
So, you know I do Flylady, but I don’t pay much attention to the monthly focus because frankly I think it’s tipping the scales on the end of too much. Especially if you’re already overwhelmed. However, the monthly habit for May is exercise and I would have to say that this is a perfect time to get going on that one. To tell the truth, I really have no excuses except my inner perfectionist wants conditions to be perfect. :-P So, it’s time to break free of that and schedule something in daily.
The habit for June is drinking water, but I’m going to start doing that now so that my body will be primed for the exercise next month and, obviously, keeping it going from now on. Which means I need to do something different in June and I think it’s time to do the vegetable and fruit dance. Summer is perfect for that since there is an abundance of good fresh foods. I’m going to buy the fruits and veggies I love and start with those. Once in a while I can experiment with something new, but eating what I love should help get the ball rolling.
Those will be my new goals. I already feel like I’m failing from writing it out, but one of these days I won’t fail and I will get started and keep the momentum going. At least it’s a simple plan.
So, here’s to spring and new beginnings. And baby steps to better health.

Happy Easter!
April 1, 2018
Exult, let them exult, the hosts of heaven,
exult, let Angel ministers of God exult,
let the trumpet of salvation
sound aloud our mighty King’s triumph!O happy fault
that earned for us so great, so glorious a Redeemer!
