Winter Goals - How Did I do?

The end of this week brings spring. I love that it's so soon after my birthday. Since MFD and I are still away on my birthday weekend trip, today I'm going to share how I did on my Winter Goals, originally posted on December 21.

1. Finally make a pie crust/pie from scratch. I failed to do this in my October Choose Your Own Adventure Food Theme Challenge and in my fall goals. Fail. I put it on my 40 before 40 list because that's the best chance of it getting done at this point. 

2. Host dinner party so people help us eat the turkey I have in the freezer. Done! February 7

3. Make a 40 by 40 list of uh, 40 things I want to do before I'm 40. I turn 38 in March. I need time for some of them. Done! Shared on Friday. 

4. Book Airfare for wild west trip. Done! First week of January.

5. Organize and catalog loose photos, including possibly using a pay to scan service. Done! Using container store boxes. 

6. Stick to my exercise schedule. Done! I'm really proud of this. As of today I have done 40 minutes of some type of exercise, sometimes broken up into two 20s, for 27 straight days.

7. Creative writing off the blog once a week. Done! Every week I've done this. Thanks to some help from the 642 Things to Write Journal

8. Try three new to me restaurants. Pho Saigon with Michelle on January 17, Cibo with Jill & Frank on January 24, Cafe Michelangelo for Lucy's party on January 31

9. Get the Be Nice Box project going. Ordered them on March 11. Kerry @ Till Then, Smile Often and Steph @ Insert Classy Here are going to join me and we'll post about it in April. Thanks ladies!

10. Go through beauty products - keep, toss, reorganize, share. Done! More than once this season.

Happy birthday to my long-time friend Andrea today!

Seasonal goals, I love you. My spring ones will be up on Friday. And I'll see you back here tomorrow for TWTW.

  1. Loveeee your seasonal goals! Maybe I should start doing this instead of monthly goals...
    Also, are you still offering blog sponsorships?

  2. You totally rocked those goals. I need to make up a 40x40 list, I am getting closer than I'd like to admit. Looking forward to the Be Nice Box. I also need to get my beauty closet purged.

  6. Extremely proud of you on the exercise. You are an inspiration to me, who has had the time for the past several years and I have not done it. Now that I am going to be a mom mom again at an older age, I need to step up my self-care so I can move and shake with this new little one and the ones already here, not to mention just being fit enough to take care of myself and my home! Great job. Happy 38 to Andrea! Love, your Momma

  16. You kicked serious butt on these winter goals! I love the 40 by 40 idea - I'm going to go back and read that post now, and get some ideas.

  17. you're wise to make all these lists and then check-in and actually call yourself out on what needs to be done!! Homemade pizza dough is sooo good, whenever I make it I have to talk myself out of eating it raw. My goal for the next three months is to try and learn to make ravioli from scratch, I hope I can say I completed it.

  18. Look at your rocking these goals friend!!!! The whole exercising for 40 minutes a day for that many days in a row is quite impressive!!! You have so much accomplished and I am sure one day you are going to make that pie from scratch! Why are we so afraid of it? I am the same way haha. Hope you are having a fabulous birthday trip!!!

  20. You kicked the shit out of your goals. Not surprised.

    I need to do something with all my loose photos. Once I find the box that they're in, of course. I need to check out your 40 by 40 and see if there's anything I can steal and add to mine.
