So hard to come up with a March title I haven’t used in the past. No guarantee that this is one but I didn’t have the energy to look through the past few years of blogging. So it’s March…in like a…what? Lion/Lamb? Tough to tell from the library where I spent most of my weekend.
Saturday started at Starbucks. It took two tries to find one with a big table that was quiet enough for studying, but once I did, I was set for 3 hours of cramming. Then I grabbed a sandwich and went home for a quick lunch with the guys. I brewed up some iced tea and headed off to the library for another few hours of caffeinated information overload.
The BOY and I had a fantastic Saturday night date night with new beers, chicken finger salad, and more binge watching the Blacklist.
I went to bed early so that I would be bright eyed for Sunday morning yoga. I have not been doing much exercise lately…instead focused on sleep, work, and studying, so this yoga class was a huge highlight of my week!
Even more fun because I was there with my mom. We did a unique flow using all sides of our mat in a mandala. It was challenging, my muscles were sore, but I LOVED it. Afterwards, my mom and I went to Whole Foods to stock up on goodies for the week ahead (and a few study snacks for the day).
I went back to the library for the majority of Sunday until it closed at 5pm, when I picked up the BOY to meet my parents out for dinner to celebrate my Dad’s birthday (it’s today).
We had a fantastic dinner with lots of laughter! It was a wonderful way to start the month and celebrate my dad!
Needless to say, February was not the month I thought it would be. Although I kept my goals in mind, they just weren’t top priority. Spending time with my family and friends…appreciating the little moments and experiences…that is what I focused on!
February Goals
1. Continue to prioritize studying. CHECK! It’s going pretty well!
2. Drink less soda. DOUBLE CHECK! I’ve been brewing lots of iced tea.
3. Eat clean. No Check! Well…let’s just say I’ve been indulging in a few (but not all) of my cravings.
March Goals
After some thought, I’ve decided to take a break from goals this month. There is a lot going on and so I am going to just focus on getting through it all with a smile on my face : ) I’ll be back with spring goals next month!
Are you setting March Goals? What’s up this month?
Luv What You Do 
My goal is to be able to get back outside especially for walking and running! I really don’t enjoy the track and treadmill. There is no sense of accomplishment ( funny because I trained for a half marathon almost completely on a treadmill). Now I want to see a change of scenery!
Debi-today felt like a great day for a run! I didn’t get out there but I can’t wait either!
Wooo nice job on the iced tea! That alone is a huge success. I’m totally on board with putting aside goals and/or blogging in favor of really living your life — sometimes that’s just gotta happen! Plus it looks like you had a blast throughout February and still managed to get a lot of studying done. That’s awesome!
Thanks Lauren! We all need a break sometimes and need to give ourselves a break sometimes. I did get a lot done and fingers crossed its enough!
Nice job!! When is your test? It has to be soon huh???
My March goals: get a job and figure out what is wrong with my foot!!
Oh no! Foot problems?! Hope it’s nothing a little RICE can’t cure. It is SOON!
Good luck!!!!!
Yes it was sore and got better. It was sore and got better. It has definitely lingered longer then I had hoped so we will see!! Eeek!!
We could be study buddies, I can totally relate. Great job on creating a good balance, though. I need to work on that!!
You sound like you are rocking the wedding stuff!!! Sometimes I wish my engagement was shorter : ) We could definitely be study buddies. The library is always more fun with a friend!
[…] every day, so I like to take a little time to unwind and zone out over the weekend. Recently, my weekends have also involved a lot of brain activity, so by 6pm on Monday (still technically part of my weekend), my brain is tired and it is […]
