3. Pay off 2 (more) credit cards - We're planning to make a huge payment this month and pay off my American Express card. Next up, Andrew's Hawaiian Visa. That'll make it 3 down, 5 to go before we're credit card debt FREE!
4. Lose weight - Still working on it and the number on the scale continues to move in the right direction. Slowly but surely, the weight is coming off. Who knows . . . maybe by this time next year I'll have made my goal weight. Man, that would be nice! =)
15. Read at least one new book a month - I just finished reading Karen Kingsbury's Unlocked. As always, she didn't disappoint. I really enjoyed this book. Now, I am rereading (for I don't know how many times . . . maybe 4 or 5) the Twilight series. I finished Twilight in 3 days and am now rereading New Moon. I LOVE these books.
16. Organize my life! - Working on organizing the guest room. Right now it's a HUGE mess, but I have faith that it'll all come together (hopefully before my mom comes to visit in August, seeing as how she'll need a place to sleep . . .).
20. Have friends over for dinner once a month - Yeah . . . not doing so great on this one. It's hard to schedule a convenient time for both us and our friends. However, we are going out to dinner with some friends tonight. Does that count?
22. Do 1 outdoor activity a day in the Spring, Summer, and Fall - Not doing great at this one, but not a complete failure either. I've started keeping a list so I'll know when I do it and what I've done. So, on 5/28 and 6/4, we were in NYC - lots of outside time and lots of walking. 6/7 - C25K; 6/8 - walk Tanner; 6/9, 6/14, and 6/16 - C25K; 6/18 - walk Tanner and Gillette Castle; 6/19 - lay out at pool; 6/20 - lay out at pool; 6/21 - C25K; 6/22 - rain; 6/23 - C25K, walk Tanner; 6/24 - walk Tanner; 6/25 - lay out at pool, bike ride; 6/26 - outdoor graduation party; 6/27 - lay out at pool; 6/28 - reading by the pool; 6/29 - lay out at pool. Not every day, but I was definitely outside quite a bit.
26. Do 100 sit ups/crunches a day - With the exception of a couple of days, I've done this one every night.
29. Start running (ugh) - Well, I still don't like it, but I'm doing it. I have started doing the C25K app - Couch to 5K. As far as running goes, it's not awful. I like that it eases you into running, and it's only 30 minutes. I'm 4 weeks into it and slacking a bit. You're supposed to do it every other day, so I was running on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. However, by the second week I had awful shin splints and my knees hurt too. So, it's hard to stay motivated, but I'm trying. Most recently, I ran on the treadmill instead of outside and it was a little better. We'll see . . . But, technically I guess I can cross this off my list, since I have started! =)
30. Have a t-shirt quilt made out of my Baylor tees - Tees are picked. Now I just need money to pay someone to assemble them!
