Milestones - let's check in, shall we?
So last month we decided it was time to recommit to some parts of our lives we've totally let slide.
I was going to write 10 - 12,000 words a week, recommit to Weight Watchers and get better sleep. So...how am I doing?
In a word, or three actually - not so good.
I killed it writing. I did. I finished a project, wrote a bunch of blog posts that I'm proud of, brainstormed a new project that I am still noodling around with - it has a start date of Nov. 1. All of that I feel really good about. I do.
Recommit to Weight Watchers - ah....I'm about 50/50 here. I'm doing much better, am I as good as I was last April? Not even close. But I'm doing better. More veggies, no cheese. If I could ditch the drinking I think I'd be better off, but what's a beer-loving girl to do?
Sleep. DAMN YOU SONS OF ANARCHY AND NETFLIX!!!! Damn you! It's just so easy to say - one more episode. Just one. And before I know it it's midnight and my plans are totally pooched. Worse, I inevitably fall asleep while putting my daughter to bed, which makes me WIDE AWAKE at midnight. Gah. Just...gah!
One thing I feel really great about is a purge I'm doing of our laundry room - lots of useless junk that we've been saving for no reason getting out of the house. That's a great feeling.
So, friends? How are your Milestones coming?

Not great, either. But I'm getting over a wicked case of jetlag that really threw me for a couple of weeks. I think I've finally turned the corner, though. I'm focusing on more fruit/veg, and way more water, and not focusing on calories. Seems to be working. I bought this fancy new Tervis cup that holds 24 ounces and I dry to drink 3 of them a day. So far I am always getting to 2 but not always 3. It's a start, right.
