Happy Friday and happy first day of May! This month is filled with really fun things, including my CRUISE. I just can’t wait! But first… let’s discuss April and my goals. Spoiler alert: I did really well this month!
> finances: don’t use my credit card for any purchases
Check! This was a goal that was on the forefront of my mind all month, and I am so glad to say I achieved it this month. Since May, June, and July are going to be “spendy” months, I’m happy I was able to spend less in April.
> nagging task: organize my blogging categories
Yup! My categories and tags are all organized the way I want them, so now nothing is stopping me from launching my new blog theme. I caaaaan’t wait!
> health: exercise 5x a week or more
Another check mark! I’m averaging 5-6 workouts a week and it feels really good. I’m doing a combination of cardio intervals on the stationary bike and elliptical at the gym, strength training, and long walks. Hoping I can keep this up!
> exploration: enjoy my lady date with Emilie in Orlando
I had so much fun meeting Emilie on Saturday! I enjoyed my time with her immensely, and I wish we could just mash our two cities together. Alas!
> personal habit: take my vitamins daily
Yes! I’m now definitely in the habit of taking my vitamins with my breakfast every morning. I take a multivitamin, a vitamin c supplement, and grapefruit seed extract. No noticeable differences, but I feel good about taking my vitamins. 🙂
And now, let’s set some intentions for May! My sole focus this month is my cruise, but I’m hoping to make progress on some other goals! Here’s what I’m planning on:
> finances: refinance my auto loan
> nagging task: launch a new blog theme
> health: stop snacking at night
> exploration: enjoy my cruise
> personal habit: stop sleeping in my contacts (!!)
Do you have any goals for May?

Way to go on your goals for April! You totally rocked them!! I bet it felt great to do this recap and say that you achieved all of them!
My goals for May are to survive my move without being too cranky/grumbly, get through the 75 minute presentation (TOO LONG) that I have to give at a conference in Virginia, find a dress to wear to the wedding I’m going to with Phil over Memorial Day weekend and enjoy my quick weekend trip to Colorado with Kyria!

Love that you are taking grapefruit seed extract. I can tell you I don’t notice a difference unless I skip a few days and then I feel like I have less energy and etc.
CRUISE MONTH! SO excited for you 🙂

Way to go, girl! You reached so many of your goals last month! Super proud of you and can’t wait to hear all the details about your cruise! xox
Emilie
WOOHOO for it almost being cruise time!
Way to go on crushing your April goals! What is grapefruit seed extract for? I have tried taking multivitamins in the past but they always cause me to feel sick to my stomach. I should try taking them at night to see if that makes a difference. Also, if you figure out a way to mesh CT and FL let me know! Pete said to me later that night, “all your cool friends live far away.” Le sigh.
You have inspired me to get back into a goal setting routine! I’ve missed it, but I also think I needed a break from constantly trying to achieve goals.
