Recap + Checking on Goals

First of all, I'm gonna do my best to get a little more regular, umm on my postings, but I am also eating fiber one bars, so there's that.

A little (long) weekend recap.  Saw some fireworks in our little town on Wednesday night.  They were pretty official, but not that official.  We were close enough to feel the ever familiar boom in our chests, buuuut also close enough to get covered by little grains of unburned gunpowder.  Gotta love our little country town.  Oh did I mention it was BYOB?  That's why it was such a massive turnout, I'm pretty sure.  We had a quiet 4th and the most 'merican thing we did was make pulled pork.  It was a nice little family day and we ended it with a walk for the pups where I accidentally drank the whole lemonade + vodka drink we were sharing.  Oops.  Sorry I'm not sorry, it was delicious.

 

Friday consisted of a little early morning gym and cooking breakfast for the hubs before a day with Chelsea to celebrate her birthday.  We went and got massages (hurt so good), shopped a bit and got some lunch.  Can't complain, it was a pretty relaxing time!  It was followed up by a bday cookout the next day to celebrate with her family and friends.  It was my first time meeting the majority of them and I was totally referred to as her "internet friend" which made me feel like a giant creeper.  But then I realized she must be saying some decently nice things about me if all these people know who I am. So I held onto the internet friend title and went with it.  Ended up meeting some hilarious and kind people and I'm looking forward to seeing a lot of them again.  Oh and the internet friend title, that shit'll fade eventually, right?

So I'm gonna be honest with you.  I'm in a funk.  Yeah, I said it, a funk.  At least I believe that's the technical term for it.  I'm feeling unmotivated, self deprecating and just plain blah.  I'm told I'll be fixed in no time, and I do think that's the case.  You can't be a badass if you're a sadass.  I thought revisiting my 2013 goals from my first post ever might be a good way to feel like I've gotten something accomplished.  Let's hope…


1. Reach my goal weight (range) of 130-140.
Well, I got close.  The closest I've been is 141.  Since then, I've gained a few back and am in the upper 140's.  So, obviously I have to work hard(er) to get there, but I will.

2. Get pregnant.
I still have the rest of the year to work on this. So for now, go over to Megan's blog and congratulate her for me!

3. Wear heels and look sexy.
Ok so I've got the first part down.  If only I could've made my goal, "Wear heels and not die."  The second part, pretty sure the jury's still out on that one.

4. Be fucking confident.
Ehhhh, I'm getting there.  I certainly have my moments and for now, I'll take that.  I portray my confidence a bit more in certain areas and I'm still trying to up my game.  I have noticed that I rarely say no to things, so that's good, right?

5. Make new friends.
I kind of love this one.  If you've been reading you know I've been on a couple blind dates (and survived both).  I've also been lucky enough to make a few far away friends that I can't wait to meet in person one of these days.  Either way, putting myself out there has helped me find some people that I'm beyond happy to have in my life!  One of those crazies swears she's gonna slap a bridesmaid dress on me, good luck buttercup.  During all of this I've been amazed by the sweetness and kindness I've been surrounded by.

6. TBD – I'm trying to think of something a little more fitness related/less weight related to add.
Ideas?  While a flat stomach and abs would be awesome, I'm not entirely sure I want to attempt that.


Ok so I do feel a little better.  Still funky, but better. Did you make any goals for 2013?  Think revisiting them and seeing what you accomplished will make you feel good?
