So let’s see how many of my March goals I accomplished:
Paint headboard – Does it count that it’s in the garage ready to be painted? Nope.
Make family subway art for hallway – Check! I’ll show it to you soon.
Buy a pair of quality sunglasses – Check and check! Why two? I bought a pair of outrageously expensive ($300) sunglasses (Gucci baby!) but decided I just couldn’t pay that much, so they are sitting on my counter waiting to be returned. I did compromise and buy myself a pair of sunglasses at the $90 range (Michael Kors) and am going to keep those. If this seems like a waste of money, just remember I’ve never bough a pair of sunglasses that was more than $10, plus it was a goal, I had to follow through 🙂
Here’s a picture of the sunglasses I finally settled on. And by the way, they look exactly like the $300 pair and the $10 pair. Apparently as much as I wanted to step out of my little fashion box, I just can’t.
Buy only environmentally friendly cleaning products – Check! Although these products are typically more expensive I only had to buy three this month and I feel good about buying safer products for our family. I found that all of these products worked well and I plan on buying them again once they are used up. Here are the three that I bought:
Mrs. Meyer’ Liquid Dish Soap
Biokleen Bac-Out Stain & Odor Eliminator (used on clothes)
Seventh Generation Bathroom Cleaner
Make Jeopardy game for etsy – Nope, not again.
Learn how to finally take pictures off the camera – Check!
Organize Caroline’s room & closet (plus the toys) – Check!
Take some kid chosen spring break field trips – Check!
Date night with hubby – Check!
Scrapbook 10 pages in Alex’s scrapbook – Nope! Ugh!
Time sort of got away from me at the end of the month so I plan to carry over the goals I didn’t accomplish to this month.
How you do in accomplishing some goals?
I’m taking this post to mean that everything is okay tornado-wise with y’all? I’ve been a little worried. :/ I’m glad to hear that the environmentally-friendly cleaning products worked well. And I can’t wait to see the wall art!
I don’t know if it’s just me but the Mrs. Meyers Dish Soap has a funky smell to it. It works, just doesn’t smell all that great.
It’s a lavender! You make it seem like it’s some rotten egg smell. I think it smells good.
I have Meyers Dish Soap and I think it smells good! Have used the lemon & the lavender and think they both are good – not STRONG like some other products…
You always amaze me on what you get done every month! Can’t wait to see your subway art!
I’m so impressed with your to-do list and all that you accomplished in March! My way of accomplishing goals is to aim low, and anything else I accomplish is a bonus 🙂
Ditto, Amanda for me.
