This was a tough week. With the unknowns surrounding the Return to School, three athletic seasons that are in full swing yet heavily impacted by CV19, and juggling many, many things on my plate, my goals took the backburner.
01: Get 6 – 7 Hours of Sleep Each Night {Status: 40/42}
When I’m stressed, I sleep. So, this was an easy goal this week!
02: Learn Calligraphy
5 athletic games + grad classes + life… no calligraphy this week.
03: Purge 1000 items {Status: 317/1000}
Still pruning my email lists. 16 more have been deleted! Oh, and I gifted a sweater and a skirt to my donation pile!
04: Organize the Attic
Grabbed luggage and gift bags from the attic, but did not store or organize anything up there. It’s way too chilly for this goal right now.
05: Read 100 Books, including ALL of the DBC books. {Status: 09/100}
Definitely need to pick up the pace on this goal! Lots of reading for professional growth, only I have not finished anything yet!
In Progress
(1) Radical Candor | Scott {Professional Growth}
(2) Culturally Responsive School Leadership | Khalifa {Professional Growth}
(3) Hacking Questions {Professional Growth}

Pleasure Reading: 9 books.
06: Try 52 New Recipes {Status: 05/52}
Mango Habernero Wings for Superbowl – yummy and within my nutritional framework!
07: Get in Shape
Here are some specific action steps that I took this week:
I continued the Running Challenge {Run for America, 1/1/21 – 3/14/21}
I barely logged any miles this week. It has either been raining, sleeting, or terribly cold all week, and my bones struggled to get moving. That’s ok. I still have a month to finish.
For another week, I closed the Activity Ring every. single. day. Some days, I closed them twice. Yoga for the WIN!
08: #OneMonthGoals with Michael Matera
Last year, I joined Michael Matera on his #OneMonthGoals journey. I ran every single day for a month – and it was glorious. This year, I am committed to selecting (and sticking with) one new goal each month, which I will document here.
January 2021: Day 31 of my Run Streak! {Done!}
February 2021: Track my meals on Lose It App {14/14}
09: Write/Send 52 notes/cards {Status: 6/52}
Maybe I’ll settle in and what a movie so I can get this done!
10: Maintain a weekly blog {6/52}
Here I am!
11: Simplify my life
I learned that, as I just THINK about a schedule change, my mind gets overwhelmed with what this will look like and how I will maintain the healthy habits that I have started. I really need to work on this. Now.
I’m open to other ideas on how to simplify my life… send them my way.
12: Organize my mother’s photographs
Still sitting there… laughing at me.
