3 in 30: February Goals

Well, well, well...I feel like I'm constantly going to the well for more water.  And, frankly, I don't like water.  Not without lemon...and sometimes not even with it. :)  But, I probably did drink more water this week and, therefore, I am well on my way to accomplishing this goal for February.  As for getting to the Y this week in addition to drinking my water...let's just say I made it there once.  Had a sick boy most of the week and we didn't get out much at all.  Very thankful he's on the mend!  There's still time, though, to get there a couple more times...  
I'm almost completely finished stuffing photos that I've gathered from my hotspots into photo albums, too.  Had to go and purchase two more albums this week to have room for them.  I love the time the boys and I have spent reminiscing over our past adventures.  Makes me want to print out the pics from my computer and get them into albums, too...maybe I'll just order some more photo books.  Sounds cheaper...I have thousands of digital photos.
As for my third goal of visiting a friend "just because", I traveled to MI and spent some time with my best friend and her family.  Met my "niece" for the first time, too.  My boys call her "Auntie Deb" and hers (will) call me "Aunt Janet".  Loved seeing them all and getting to play in the snow for a little while.  Glad to come home to my daffodil sprouts, though.  Called another friend this week, too, which I haven't gotten together with for awhile...hoping to meet up with her next week. :)
I'm enjoying the accountability that I am feeling with this 3 in 30 group...makes me want to have a good report at the end of each week, so I try really hard at making some progress along the way.  Thank you, all!

    Looks like you are doing pretty good with your goals. I have also had a sick son, so it has made it hard to totally finish my goals, but I still have a couple of days to try and finish them out. I think I will succeed though, because I am enjoying trying to make the goal! :) Have an awesome day!

    Water with lemon is actually better for you! Even though, I don't like it, I try to drink it. Keep up the good work!

    I used to hate drinking water, but after a while I grew accustomed to it. I don't drink sodas anymore. I don't allow myself my morning cup of coffee until I've drank 2 cups of water (I have a cup that holds that much).

    sounds like you're on a roll sister! I'm one to talk to about the drinking water thing...water and I have a love/hate relationship. I just love my sweet ice tea and it's soo sooo hard to do without...it's just one of my many things that make me smile!
    good luck this week with your goals I have faith in ya!

    Way to go in meeting and working towards your goals :o)

    Good to hear that you son is feeling better! I LOVE looking at our old photos..I really need to get soooo many of them into albums! I literally have rubbermaids full of photos in their envelopes from the photo dept.

    And how fun to visit with "family"...we have dear friends from when my hubby were first married that even though time and distance has separated us, when we do get together it is like we've been together always...:o)

    Blessings & Aloha!
    Thank you so much for your sweet comment and visit!

    I found that when water doesn't taste good, adding a partial packet of a mix-in helps me drink more of it. Keep it up!

    I love the idea of 3 for 30 -- and you are making great progress. I drink a ton of water -- I carry a water bottle around with me 24/7 -- everyone makes fun of me. As for the photos...I think I am about 4 years behind -- that would definitely be one of my goals.

    Thanks for visting my blog this week -- lovely to meet you here!

#TransformationTuesday

"But God has surely listened and has heard my prayer."  Psalm 66:19 As one who has struggled with weight all of my life, seeing the ups and downs in jean sizes became my reality.  I would lose some pounds only to face a stressor in life and see them return and bring friends along for the ride.  I spent years believing lies, yet secretly hoping for a better reality.  Lies that I am not capable of overcoming my sweet tooth and that I am just not the workout type, topped the list.  I have never really lacked self esteem or self confidence; I know who I am.  However, I know from personal experience, others define me by what they first see.  Having been a plus-size lady for years, I was treated differently, intentionally or not, when I dropped pounds. My health journey to where I am today began back in 2010. It is amazing that things do not happen accidentally, even if they seem to in the beginning. Actually, as the pieces of my story have come together, this story begins w

home of the Braves

As a metro Atlanta resident, it seems almost a requirement to go to a Braves game to continue living here.  I grew up watching baseball and loving the game...and have been to a few games in St. Louis, Cincinnati, Detroit...and of course, Atlanta.  The problem for me going to a Braves game is purely mental...having been a Mets and Cardinals fan for years, I just haven't the love necessary for the Braves to call me a fan. However, as with many things in life that I haven't particularly enjoyed over the years, my boys make it so worth my time and heart.  I go watch the Braves because I love my boys...and my boys and I love baseball.  Well, they love what they know of the game...still in training, but getting the hang of the lingo and SOP's of a baseball fan rather well. There are a few things that remain the same from stadium to stadium..."the wave" (Braves' attendees do not always get into this, which is very disappointing), organ music to lead you to yell &q
