Here is October’s update for my 2021 goals.

2021 Goals | Update 6

Health

Goal 1. Lose 15 pounds. I have not lost any more weight since my previous post. The weather is cooling down and I’m starting to feel sluggish. I need to make an effort to incorporate some strength training and different workouts into my day.

Goal 2. Walk 1,000 miles. So far, I have walked 817.54 miles. I have also finished the Hadrian’s Wall challenge and am working my way along the Flower Route, which is a 41 mile (66 km) route through the scenic landscape of the Netherlands.

Goal 3. Practice self-care. I have continued to drink water for the majority of my day. My drink of choice recently has been pineapple Bubly. I love it. I have been trying to focus on eating more protein during the day, as I have been reverting to bad snacking habits and it is not filling me up with good calories. I am eating more Greek yogurt with blueberries, carrots (from my garden) with spinach dip and Shaklee cherry and almond snack bars.

Family

Goal 1. Have a date with each of my girls once a month. Miss C and I have been working our way through the Camp Cretaceous tv shows. They are quite fun. Miss S and I have taken some walks together and have been enjoying our chats.

Goal 2. Have one date a month with my husband. We recently enjoyed a lunch date at a local barbecue restaurant while the girls were in school.

Goal 3. Have a family date once a month. At the beginning of the month, we took a trip to Waterton to see the bison, Cameron Falls and Cameron Lake. It was lovely, but cold and very windy.

Home

Goal 1. Declutter my basement. I have started this again after my break over the summer. I have decluttered some of my craft supplies and donated them to a local thrift store.

Goal 2. Organize our digital photos. I have not completed any more of this yet.

Goal 3. Keep to a regular housekeeping routine. I have done the basics, but need to get back at it and do some deep cleaning.

Blog

Goal 1. Post on a regular basis. I blinked and September went by. I shall try and post more regularly over the fall and winter months.

Goal 2. Complete the blogging course I purchased. I have listened to another lesson, but have not completed the assignment yet.

Goal 3. Build a community. Nothing recently.
