Day 111: April 21, 2010

1. Be intentional about my quiet time

I’ve started doing this again. I had gotten so complacent and let my busy-ness get in the way. I know I’m only hurting myself by not doing it and I always feel so much better and able to face things, when I do.

4. Read 20 books (1/20)
I didn’t finish it yet but I started another book and I’m actually almost at the end after only one week, so definitely a better book than the last. I’m reading Big Girl by Danielle Steel. It’s a good story but there is something about the way it’s written that is bothering me. It’s all in third person and seems to narrate and skip a lot of time, but it’s holding my attention. I’ve read Danielle since I was in Middle School when my mom got me hooked, I think maybe she’s just getting old. Anyway, I expect I’ll finish it this week.

9. Buy a new bikini (and be proud to wear it)
Well…I didn’t buy one, but I did try some stuff on. I didn’t find anything I like yet. But I’ve only been to one store, there must be SOMETHING out there.

25. Clean out the office
Not done but I’ve been working on it a little at a time. This room had kind of become the catch all room and a pseudo storage closet. You wouldn’t BELIEVE how much crap I’ve thrown out already that I haven’t looked at in over a year….maybe two! >.<

42. Fill my charm bracelet (4/12)
I got two new charms this week. One is a French heart and the other is a high heel shoe….SO CUTE! And SOOOO me! :)

43. Try a new recipe
I made Ratatouille for dinner last night! I actually found an article in a cooking magazine that gave me a shopping list and 5 recipes for the week. I didn’t start it until last night but I bought everything I needed and plan on cooking all week! Tonight we are having Turkey Bean Burgers. :)

60. Buy a pair of designer shoes
Okay I didn’t buy any yet, but we tried them on! We went to the Neiman’s Outlet and found some really GREAT prices on them too! Lauren seemed to be partial to Manolo Blahnik, I swear almost everything she picked up and tried on was Blahnik. I kept being drawn to the Prada myself, although I did find some cute Louboutin and Dior also. I am SOOO going back there! =D

73. Take pictures in the bluebonnets
I randomly passed a patch of bluebonnets the other day and I was by myself….and YES I totally stopped and took some self portraits! :P



91. Listen to my entire iTunes library (currently 3487 songs)
I’ve added a few but listened to a lot more. I’m down to 655 songs to go to complete this task. I bet I can do that before June! I think when I’m done, I’ll go through the library and get all the album artwork uploaded, there are way too many on here that don’t pictures and it bugs me. :P

98. Remember to use my green grocery bags
I REMEMBERED!!! Three times in a row already! YAY ME! Yesterday I did major shopping and used every bag I had, they only put my milk in a plastic bag….they could have skipped it. :-/
