I don’t usually do this kind of post, but this is supposed to be a place for me to gather my thoughts and what I’m thinking about right now is goals for the month 😉 Also, our internet has been flaky since we got home, which has kind of thrown a spanner in the works of the Vienna posts. It’s difficult to upload photos when the browser keeps telling you it’s unable to connect!
- Complete the 30 Day Squat Challenge! I had to restart because I didn’t do any squats in Austria. I’m now back to day 4 and this time I actually want to finish it.
- Be more careful with my money. I did waaaay too much online shopping last month (mostly buying books and summer clothes), and when I checked my bank balance just before we went to Austria I nearly had a heart attack. Of course, it didn’t help that the TV licence people took their money, which doesn’t happen every month. In July, I need to budget better and actually have some money left when my brother comes to visit!
- Lose 2 kg before my brother comes. That will put me 2 kg above what I weighed after I had my wisdom teeth out. I can’t believe I’ve actually put on 4 kg since then (almost back up to my original weight!) so I’m determined to get at least halfway back to that weight!
- Complete the summer reading challenge. I should be able to read 2.5 books by the end of the month, right?
- Eat fruit! I’m terrible at it because whenever I buy fruit it goes mouldy before I can consume any so I end up not bothering to buy any more. But this month I want to buy some and actually do something with it before it’s too late!
That’s all. Five things sounds like it should be doable. Especially since some of them I’ve already started anyway… I just need to actually stick with them this time!
I just had to look up the Squat Challenge. Is this the challenge you are talking about: http://30dayfitnesschallenges.com/30-day-squat-challenge/
If so, daaaaaammnnnnnnn,
Yeah, that’s the one!
I also keep losing my connection whenever I edit a post… maybe it’s a WP problem…?
Our Internet is generally slow. I can’t load other sites either.
That’s pants 😦
Yep! Jan has contacted the internet provider so we’ll see what happens…
As it is the end of strawberry season, local cherries are coming on and lots of berries are available at the vegetable market, it shouldn’t be too hard to shop fruit. The small quantities I get regularly at the market seldom live long enough to reach my home, though. You might even reward yourself: one squat -one berry 🙂
We had soo many strawberries a few weeks ago that I couldn’t even look at them for days afterwards!
I really need to start working out again, I got so lazy! And I want to find the time to read more books this month!
I decided to go for the 30 days challenge, too. You inspired me!:)
lol, well good luck with it.
Today I started. It is so hard!!!!!!!:)
You are so much further along in the summer reading challenge than I am! I keep getting distracted by books not on my list! x
I do too! I’ve read so many other books this month. Luckily I still had my freebie, so I could use that for one of the extra books. I actually read Bedknobs and Broomsticks all in one go on Monday night after suddenly realising the next day was check-in time!
I definitely need to be more careful with money, especially with my move coming up and some visitors coming in August and September!
Visitors are sooo expensive, right? 😉
1. You are gorgeous and do not need to lose any weight
2. I hear you with the fruit… I’m trying to ease myself into it with apples and strawberries.
