Monday Blahg: Planning

I'm late in getting this out, but not as late as you might think.  I've decided that the Sunday blog I was writing and posting on Sunday will now be the Monday blog that I will probably write on Sunday night and post on Monday.  It's still going to be a bit of a weekly sum up, but hopefully a little more focused on the goals I have for the week.  And since I recently discovered that I kind of like listing things, so I think the Monday Blahg will usually be in list format. 

--Still working on getting my room cleaned.  My roommate's sis is coming on Friday, so that gives me a deadline.  I don't like deadlines, but they help.  I mean, I either have to get my room cleaned by Friday, or shove everything under my bed.  ...or just keep my roommate's sister away from my room for an entire weekend. 

--Worked TWO birthday parties at the drop-in center.  They were fun, but I think I'm too old for that sort of thing.  I was on my feet for more than 6 hours, and I'm FEELING it today. 

--This week, I'm hoping to get finished with all the written plans of stuff I hope to get done this year.  I don't know if it will help me, but I think that getting those things written down WITH workable deadlines will give me something to work towards.  I don't want to spend all my time planning, but taking a good week or so to do it might prove more beneficial than three weeks of just sitting around wondering how I'm going to figure everything out.

--Started my diet today.  I have gained about 20 pounds back instead of the 15 I was thinking.  But I was a little too thin before, perhaps, and so I'm just aiming to lose that 15.  I just want to get back to that comfortable size six.  It's really a financial decision more than anything else.  I can't afford to buy new pants, and the ones I have are really tight now.  So I have to lose weight so I can keep fitting into my pants!  Diet day one wasn't hard, but I have a ways to go.  I'm hoping to start a weekly running/exercise routine that will help me burn off those 15 pounds pretty quickly.

--Monday is down!  Congratulations, and may your Tuesday be awesome.
