Feb. Goal Recap & March Goals

I can’t believe it’s already March.  Doesn’t it feel like Christmas was last week?!  My wedding is less than two months away and it’s starting to catch up to us.  There are so many things to still do.  Maybe I’ll do a post next week about all the things that need to get completed by May 2.  I’m sure no one will care aside from myself, but it will help me keep things organized. 

Anyway, since it’s now March I figured I should probably do my monthly goal recap and goal setting post.  Enjoy.

Goal #1:
Dedicate more time to working out (Completed). Since purchasing my own set of dumbbells, I’ve been lifting much more frequently than in months past.  I’m also doing yoga more frequently.  I call this a win!  I definitely want to get back into running, especially since I have a 5K race in the middle of April.  My goal is to at least try to run the entire thing.  I haven’t run consistently since training for the half marathon I did in Nov. 2012.  That seems like decades ago and my body definitely feels like it was. 

Goal #2:
Be in bed by 10PM every night (Somewhat completed).  Although I’m getting to bed earlier than before, I tend to lay in bed for a while on my cell phone.  It’s a nasty habit, but I can’t seem to let it go.  I don’t have a lot of time during the day to just browse Instagram or Pinterest, so when I go to bed it’s the perfect time.

Goal #3:
Complete items on my wedding to-do list (Completed).  This month, I had my first fitting, scheduled my hair and makeup trials, sent out my invitations, ordered our guest book, ordered our table number holders, somewhat designed our programs, somewhat figured out a signature drink, and probably a lot of other things.  February was a busy month for wedding planning, and I know for a fact that March and April will be even busier. 

Ok, now on to my goals for March.

Goal #1:
Get more organized for the wedding.  This includes making final decisions on things, buying whatever else that still needs to be purchased, making payments on our massive vendor bills, and many other random wedding things.  I’m being vague I know, but there’s just too many things to still do that I can’t wrap my head around how my friend Lauren plans weddings full-time.  Laur, how the hell are you still sane?!

Goal #2:
Continue doing yoga at least a few times a week.  I love yoga.  I think I’m actually going to do yoga the morning of my wedding to calm me down and ground me.  Reflexion Yoga is my favorite yoga video website (duh, you already knew that) and for a limited time I have a promo code for you!  Click the link in my side bar.  It’s 30% off with the code NICOLE30.  I’ll be doing a full post on this probably on Tuesday, so keep an eye out if you’d like more information. 

Goal #3:
Get through the month without any crazy wedding-related meltdowns.  In general, I’ve been pretty good with not letting the small stuff bother me in terms of the wedding.  Sure, we’re not taking a honeymoon and I was pissed/upset for a while, but there’s no use in getting upset.  Sure, we’re only inviting 80 people and I’m scared our ceremony will look bare, but our closest family and friends will be there.  This month I strive to try to like wedding planning and enjoy it while I can.
