I've narrowed it down to three:
1. Try a variation on your diet for a month (no sugar, no gluten, no processed foods, vegetarian).
2. Spend time with your husband every day, intentionally. (Like, not just talking about bills and the logistics of running a home together).
3. Make something with your hands every day (gardening, a craft, a new recipe).
I think now is a good time to let you know something. Some of these goals that I work on for a month at a time are often implemented strictly Monday through Friday, then loosely on the weekends. I have been waking up at 6:30 in June, except on the Saturdays when the hubs is home and I sleep in a little later- like until (woohoo!) 8:30. Is that cheating? Does anyone feel slighted by this?
I have to make that clear. I could work my tail off to be sugar free Monday through Friday, but then take a breather on Saturday. Cutting corners? Maybe. Want to make something of it?
So- I'm taking votes! What should I work on for July? I'll close the official voting on Tuesday, July 5 so get your vote on. Let's get out and Rock the Vote!

make things.
then send them to me.
i like hand made things =)
If sugar has the hold on you that it has on me, then that's my vote. I think I'm going to try no-sugar next month. I've giving myself this month off, cause Noah's birthday is in 2 weeks...so...you know...I can't NOT have cake at his party, right? Especially after I work so hard on it?!
ReplyDeleterobyn (beckley) if the final vote is to make things, i will make something darn special and send it right to you.
ReplyDeletekeely maybe you could go sugar free for a few days with me, just to test it out... not around noah's birthday, of course.
I think I'm going no-sugar and no-alcohol this week. That nightly beer is great for my breast milk, but not so great for that spare tire around my waist. :)
