March Goals

Happy First day of MARCH, and GOODBYE, February!

As for February's goals, I think I did quite well! I'm not sure if I lost six pounds or not. I had lost a couple then gained a few around Valentine's Day. I'm sure I've lost it all by now, but I'm boycotting the scale for a little while. I feel really good, and that's what matters.

I went entirely meatless every Monday throughout the month. I thought I might get really creative with dinner on Mondays, but I didn't. My go-to meal was a cheesy enchilada with veggies on the side.

I had a guest post!! If you haven't already, read Emily's post!

I have pretty much mastered blog link-ups! I participated in a lot and met many new blogger friends!

As of yesterday (yes, just yesterday!) I have a healthy savings account! I'm so proud that I met and even exceeded my savings goal!


To me, March is the longest month of the year, and we've got so many fun things coming up this month! Vaught attends daycare at a private school, so the program follows the school's holidays, meaning the week after this, we get SPRING BREAK!!! I'm so excited to get a week at home with Chubs! My good friend is going to babysit one day so I can work a little, but I'm still getting plenty of time with him. We have our family photo session with our photographer on March 21st, and then Vaught turns six months old on the 25th.

Okay--goals!

1. Start running again. Yes, I do still run but not nearly as much or as far as I used to. I used to set out from my driveway and not return until I'd killed at least four or five miles. I really miss it! As the weather gets nicer, I want to pick it up again.

2. More sponsored posts. I work hard to get my name out there and get sponsored post opportunities, but they're on high demand, and there's a lot of competition! I've been extremely fortunate with my blogging, but I put so much work into it... I have my days when I'm so proud of all that I've done, but I also have days where I feel like I'm just wasting my time. Those days are few though, and I feel that everyone experiences that! 

3. Get a booty. March will be the month of squats and lunges for Nike shorts weather is upon us!!!

4. Clip coupons. This has become a "thing" amongst a lot of my friends. I'm already purchasing the Sunday newspapers for articles for a graduate school project due at the end of the semester; I'm going to start putting those coupons to use instead of throwing them away!

5. Save more. There's never anything wrong with saving more money! It's good for me, my family, and our future. It's so nice to know that there's a little there in case we're ever in need. You never know when you're going to need it!



What are some of your goals for this month??
