Week 1 2018 recap




  Well this week was pretty busy!  Not only did we celebrate a new year!  I celebrated my birthday!


   I finished 1 books for my reading challenge for the year and started on my next! 


  We got our first real snow here.  So that led to some winter fresh air.



  So far I'm doing well on my goals.  My fitness had a couple days off but, I'm not stressing over it because you do need rest days, right.  Besides I started the week off pretty strong with!


How did your first week go? No worries and don't stress.  If you are still formulating a plan or just playing it by ear.  I wish you luck on the upcoming week for whatever you want to accomplish.

  1. Well good to know, that your new year is going well. The Only thing I am concerned is something else, which I won't get on certain period of time, till then I can just wait only.

  2. That's a super productive week! Happy belated birthday and congratulations on sticking to your fitness goals. Yes, rest days are as important as work out days. My first week was really bad, I kind of went through New Year blues. But the second week has started well so hope I will have more to talk about as the week ends :)

    1. My kids got me some makeup and nailpolish. I guess all the subscription bags they see sparked that great idea.

    1. I want to take my kids skating. There are a few places that offer that. Sledding is a whole other story. There are very few hills which is necessary for sledding. Liking people at work is HUGE!
