Ten months left in this year… and so far the goals are about 1/2 and 1/2. Not terrible, but I think I over extended myself in a couple of areas. Below are the goals that I laid out in February – and you can see (in red) what I am updating… or changing. Here’s the updates…
1. Write, write, write…
Well, I am writing more – back to daily on this blog. But I’m not writing my weight loss story (or any fiction/creative writing) currently. I hope to start that after next week. I’ll be going to a writing workshop and am hoping that my creativity is inspired.
2. Take a photo everyday…
Fail… I think I was successful for a week. And at this point I have no immediate plans to pick this back up. I think this falls under the “taking on too much” category.
3. Host a girls night out — or in!
Still on track for sometime soon – after the snow is gone.
4. Track my food.
Doin’ ok on this… some days are better tracking than others, but at least there is some tracking happening again! As of this morning it looks like I might have a REALLY good loss at my weigh in. 
5. Run in the Fifth Third Riverbank Run.
I am training. Run, run, run. Need to contact Riverbank organizers about changing to 10k though.
6. Read and comment on at least 5 blogs daily.
So far I’ve been ok on somedays with this and not so good (read: terrible) but I’m going to have to step it up with the challenge I’ve taken on for March.
7. Invite my family over for Sunday lunch
Date yet to be determined. This may be something we do in summer/no snow weather. Not much parking at my house otherwise.
8. Exercise at least 5 days each week
Complete fail. Will try to start that this month. Although I doubt it will happen this week. 
9. Read one chapter of the Bible daily
So far, I’ve been doing ok – missed a few days here and there, but because I’m doing the Daniel Study by Beth Moore it’s not been too difficult.
10. Clean my house for 20 minutes per day.
Once again, I started out really well with this one but in the last couple of weeks, this has really fallen off. I’m going to try to do this once again starting tonight.
11. See a movie by myself.
No plans yet.
Move this blog back to WordPress.
Success! I’m a wordpress blogger officially now. If you are still following the Google blog – be sure to change over to the Google friend connect here. I’m shutting the old one down at the end of March. Thanks!
So there you have it… the updates. And I’m more than happy to also say that I am going to my first blogging conference later in October! SO excited. I stayed up extra, extra, extra, extra late to get my ticket. It’s official. I’m going.
