Super Late June 2016 Goals

It's halfway into June and I realized that I never did my monthly goal post. Better late than never! Seeing as how I have missed half of the month already, it'll probably be a shorter list.

Here was May's list:
Work:
- Keep up the 6+ hour days - mostly
- Host a Norwex party - nope
- Finish up a freelance web design job I picked up -no, had to wait for client. 

Health:
- GET BACK TO YOGA. - no. 
- Re-order the supplements I'm out of - Most of them
- Keep meal prepping - yep! I did pretty good last month

Personal/Home:
- Get office and spare bathroom cleaned up/organized for visiting family - YES! Even though that family never showed up.
- Go to 2 rock concerts! - YES! There was some crap surrounding one that caused some major emotional issues for Hubs and I, but we've changed our perspectives and moved on.
- Keep writing in my happiness journal - I stopped midway through the month and need to start again.
- Work an pet adoption event - No, it got cancelled. But there's always June!!!
- Keep reading my friend's novel - Haven't read much of it, need to read more!
- Read the books I checked out from the library - Yep!

So Hubs and I are pretty addicted to the library again. They have started offering adult board games, like Legendary, Pandemic, and Eldritch Horror. It's saving us money to rent them, and we can decide if we really like them before forking out the cash. We make sure to tell the librarians how awesome this new program is so they'll keep it going, and maybe even buy more games.

I have pretty much given up on attempting to sell Norwex. I'm just not good at the follow through I need, and I don't know anyone lol. I have a couple of people that have ordered, so I've helped some people, just not enough to try and keep it going as a business.

I decided at the beginning of June that I was ready to go back on an anti-depressant. When I went off of them last year, things in my life were fabulous. Since then, I have had some more health issues, lost a very important person (moved, not death), had major financial burdens pop up, and overall felt pretty crappy about my life and situation. I know that there's a lot I can do to make myself feel better, but I believe that if I have the meds helping my head a little bit, I can help myself even more.

June:
Work:
- Keep up the 6 hour days
- Work on/finish the freelance web design job now that the client has made some decisions

Health: 
- GET BACK TO YOGA. (This will be on my list until I succeed)
- Continue meal/batch prepping
- Keep taking my meds.
- Do the Walk of Hope
- Do better at staying off oil

Personal/Home:
- Clean my kitchen from top to bottom
- Clean the living room, more particularly the zoo area, from top to bottom
- Work another pet adoption event (that'll make 2 for the month!)
- Have fun with my niece when she comes to visit!
- Start working on next month's surprise :)
- Finish reading the self-help books I rented from the library

I CAN DO THIS.

My First Giveaway!

My last post was about my decision to start a bakery. I'm very excited about it, and have been getting some fantastic reviews from my taste testers! My menu is small right now, but I am continually working on new recipes to expand it. I'm currently attempting to make a really good gluten free sandwich bread that doesn't have corn, potato, white rice, or soy in it. I hope to have it done by opening day, Nov 1. I know it's weird to open on a Tuesday, but I plan to be very busy celebrating our 2 year wedding anniversary on Halloween by scaring little kids :) I figured one of the best ways to advertise the bakery was to have a blog giveaway. So that's exactly what I'm doing! One lucky reader will receive a $20 gift certificate to I Can't Believe It's Good For Me. The giveaway is open until midnight, Oct. 31. The winner will be chosen by random.org and announced on Nov 1. Here are the rules: 1 - You must complete the mandatory entry. 2 - Post each entr...

Cortisol and Leptin...

Photo credit I feel so run down. I felt like this most of last week, and ended up taking 3 days off work due to it. This weekend was better - We went to Houston. We spent several hours enjoying the Downtown Aquarium on Saturday, and I enjoyed my PCOS symposium on Sunday. But as soon as I got in the car to head home, this feeling came back. It was so bad that I tossed my cookies less than an hour after we got on the road. This was definitely not from being car sick. I don't get car sick. I was tired all evening, had stupid issues with my homework, and finally went to be at 2-2:30. I realize that was late, and it could explain why I'm tired, but it doesn't explain the run-down, crappy feeling. I got plenty of sleep last week and still felt this way. I think it could be a cortisol issue. I have high cortisol levels. I know I haven't checked with a doctor, but from the information I received at the PCOS symposium, as well as years of research, it fits. I did some more re...

Spend a few moments Happifying your life!

Several months ago I was given the opportunity to beta test a new program called Happify . It's designed to help you become happier with your life, and has plenty of studies to back up their science. I've been using it, although not as faithfully as I should. But I really have enjoyed testing out a lot of the different tracks to choose from. This week,   Happify  ent out of beta testing and is now open to the public. There are a lot of free tracks you can choose from, as well as some others you can get by upgrading to a paid membership. I recommend   Happify  o everyone I know that needs a little pick me up from day to day. It has been helping me find my way towards satisfaction with myself and my life the way it is. It has also helped me to expand my horizons and learn how to be even happier. It's a great program. Currently I'm working on the paid track 'Get Motivated to Get Fit'. Right now it's exactly what I need - a way to focus on my health without ...
