Happy New Year!

I haven't found the time needed yet to put together my new year's intentions, but one was recently handed to me on a silver platter:

Goal #1 - PLAN A FREAKING WEDDING!

Whoo hooo! I am really excited. Really really excited. I love the ring, love the guy. This was a great way to start 2009!

If you want to nerd out on wedding porn, I have several websites I can send you - just private message me at hotthickchick@gmail.com.

As a fellow bride-to-be, I have done FAR too much research, and not enough actual planning... but it's definitely fun!

Congrats!; 8:09 AM

8. send out thank yous from wedding shower

Goals For The Week (11/24/08)

1. Follow training plan.
2. Do Turkey Trot on Thursday. DONE!
3. Stretch more. Done! I did this more but not as much more as I probably should.
4. Do Trigger Point more. Done! I did this more but not as much more as I probably should.
5. Eat healthy and drink lots of water. SORT OF - I think I did better but not as well as I should.
6. Take vitamins. FAIL! I did not take one vitamin this week. Seriously.
7. Figure out this stress/sleeping thing. DONE - sleep has gotten better but the stress has also gotten better.
8. Don't get too mind f'ed with work. DONE!
9. Moderation over holiday weekend. SORT OF - I didn't overeat but did manage to drink myself into thanksgiving oblivion. Hot!
10. Have fun with family and friends. DONE!

Goals For The Week (11/3/08)

1. Complete my Coach Shawn workout plan. (Including time trials at the track!) DONE!
2. Go to "crazy weights" at 6 a.m. on Tuesday morning. (DONE!)
3. Continue to wake up at the same time as last week (become a morning person?) (As of Wed I'm 3 outta 3) 11/9 update - this was really hard but I did manage to wake up relatively early... Once I really get into my running I am going to make an effort to wake up at 6 a.m. and get my runs done before work. There is really no reason not to. Especially since I will have guests and visitors over the next month that will require my time and attention.
4. Go to yoga (I'll say once, but go for twice) 11/9 update - I did go once, so this is DONE!
5. Cross training (spin, hike, swim, etc.) 11/9 update - this did not happen.
6. Moderation! 11/9 update - I think this worked out beautifully this week, even through celebration dinners nothing was completely overdone (except maybe my time trial).
