May Goals Recap & June Goals

Well it’s June now and when I logged into my Macy’s registry last night it said there was 333 days left until our wedding.  Where did the time go?! 

Here are the goals I set for myself for May and the current status of them.

1.  Get my skin and hair in order.  Skin – somewhat completed, Hair – completed.  My skin had a crazy breakout this month and now I have dark spots from the scarring.  Luckily, last night I went to Macy’s and picked up the Clinique Clinical Dark Spot Corrector.  It’s guaranteed to lighten your scars up to two shades in a month.  I’ll be using this religiously twice a day so hopefully I see some improvement.  In hair news, I finally got my hair trimmed this month, so it no longer looks like 2 inches of fried hair at the ends.  That’s definitely a positive. 

2. Take at least one yoga class at a studio.  Did not complete/Will complete tomorrow.  I signed up for a class tomorrow morning at 5:45AM!  I was chatting with my yoga teacher on Facebook last week and was joking around with her that she needs to start an early morning/pre-work class.  To my surprise, she has that class on Wednesday mornings!  

3. Get back to the gym.  Somewhat completed.  I did get to the gym a few times this month, but nothing significant.  It’s so nice out these days that the last place I want to be is cooped up in our gym. 

4.  Take more walks around my development.  Did not complete.  Completely forgot this was a goal of mine for this past month.  We’ve been so busy that any down time we had this month was spent laying on the couch. 

I’m only going to have three goals this month, so I can really focus on each one.  I find that if I have tons of goals, none of them ever get done because I either forget what they are or I just get overwhelmed.

1. Take at least one yoga class in a studio and practice more yoga/meditation at home.  I already have a class scheduled for tomorrow, but I want to start attending more frequently to truly benefit. 

2.  Stop picking/biting my nails.  My nails were actually pretty long at the beginning of May, but after a really bad gel manicure, they all broke and then I started picking at them.  I.Will.Stop.Picking/Biting.My.Nails.

3.  Organize our office.  Now that we have an office in our apartment, I need to start actually putting it all together.  That means: buying a desk chair, cleaning out the closet, and decorating.
