What I'm Reading This Week #19
Hello hello, mah peeps! I hope you had a good week. A quick birthday shout out to my FIL. I'm sure he's whipping up quite a party up there and DJing like he used to back in the day. It's very hard to not think that today was supposed to be our first full day walking Ogunquit Beach in Maine after finding a place we could finally afford there. I'm also failing at knowing we should still be gone for another week. and we're especially bitter given what a complete disaster our attempt at a smaller getaway was when we stayed at the worst place we've ever rented a few days ago. When I say there was nowhere comfortable to sit/sleep, I mean NOWHERE. The Mr is crippled and we spent our anniversary hoping he didn't end up on a telehealth call for strong pain meds. I had borderline migraines daily and by the end was also limping with my SI joint joining the hobble party. It rained torrentially every single day which we're fine with n...
Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteI dont do resolutions but there are things I measure regularly to check progress. Mostly weight related. 2019 is going to be a great year!
I read a great article and am going to try "micro resolutions" this year. One per month, non cumulative. Some may be removing a habit (quit drinking for a month) or adding a habit (5 minutes of meditation daily for a month). I think of it as a way to test drive habits and see what effect they have. Happy new year!
ReplyDeleteI don't do resolutions. I set intentions and try to track them. I also don't wait until the new year to set an intention. Right now my intention is to get back into the habit of getting at least 150 minutes of exercise in each week. Due to the weather (mostly ice) that will involve going to the gym at work. I had gotten out of the habit when my gym closed in order to move locations/renovations and then the craziness of Christmas hit.
ReplyDeleteI guess technically I do resolutions, even if I'm calling them "focus points." I'm still resolving to focus on them. LOL I've gotten better with my black and white thinking on this and don't beat myself up about things that weren't quite up to par in the previous year. If I made improvements, then that's a positive. If I didn't, then clearly my commitment wasn't there so that gives me pause to delve into why.
