Hump Day Poll: Side Goal



In addition to my health goals for the year, I also made a side goal which isn't grand but still something I want to focus on.  Using my lotions.  

Do you know how many lotions I have?  Lots.  Like...LOTS.  

Stuff I've picked up on vacation.  

Stuff hosts have gifted me on vacation.  

Lotions whose scents were being discontinued so I had to stock up.  (No link because...discontinued)

The lotion we bought at the Vermont Country Store when our hands were chapped beyond measure and the smell is so strong I can only use it on my legs.

Pure unscented lotions to cut through the stronger lotions that I love but don't love my nose on their own.  

The lotion that I'm obsessed with and don't use much because I'm afraid it'll run out even though I could buy more but don't.

Not only do I have all of those but in December when we were at the Cabot Annex in Waterbury and we sampled Farm + Sea lotion and I bought the one I liked more and we bought the one the Mr liked.  Then when we put mine on at home, we both couldn't stop smelling ourselves so I went on their website and ordered 2 large tubs because they were 50% off because girl math.  That's right, four new 8 oz bottles of lotions in a month when I have all of those other ones.

So there's my soft, dermatologically dirty secret that turned into a side goal.


Any of you have side goals?  (Probably not related to silky smooth hoarding)

  1. Love my lotions, a bit more of a cream girl though. I purged mine down to a few faves. My side goal is use up. I want a minimalist pantry and products. I'm trying to get used to the cupboard and pantry looking sparse, but it keeps me from wasting.

    1. That's a good goal! I need to go through my pantry and clean/purge at some point. I don't discriminate creams...6 tubs! 😆 (Two are the discontinued ones)

  2. We do have a lot of lotions and I definitely need to use some this time of year too.

    1. You'd better get to pumping some of that eucerin! You don't want old man skin! 😄

  3. Ok, for some reason your lotion obsession just made me smile! I also have a lotion that I refuse to use....only for special occaisions, because they discontinued it (I have about 3bottles left though!) As for side goals...I have lots of non health related side goals...financial goals for my savings and extra payments on my mortgage are my big ones. I have purging goals....as in purging the unncessary items from my house!!! Stuff like that!

    1. I'm glad my lotion hoarding brought a smile to you! Those are good goals! We paid and extra mortgage pmt every year and rounded up by $25 for the life of our mortgage (and told them to apply the extras to interest). Knocked 7 years off for us. Totally worth it!

  4. I am terrible about using any kind of lotion or cream. Always have been. Aside from some hand cream before bed, or the occasional lotion or potion to my face, I rarely use anything, but have a closet full of the stuff. Lip balm is the only thing I'm consistent with.
