February Goals ~ Reading, Blogging, Getting Fit


I'm linking up today with Tanya at Mom's Small Victories for the February 2015 Goals Linkup. I decided it would be a good idea to get some goals written down. Perhaps that way I'll actually achieve them! So here's my plan for February:

Reading




Blogging

Getting Fit

  • Get back on track with logging all of my food in MyFitnessPal
  • Stay within my calories goal at least 5 days/week
  • Get back to running ~ run/walk at least 20 miles throughout the month
  • Complete at least 2-3 FitnessBlender videos per week 

Other goals

  • Make a final decision on summer trip and book it!
  • Pick a 5K in March or April and sign up
  • Book trip to NYC for Spring Break
  • Get onions and carrots planted, and start planning the Spring garden

      Thank you for hosting the library challenge. It's really a challenge for me, so I need the motivation. Lately, I've been buying way too many books!

    Yay, thanks for joining our linkup and jotting down your goals. I have vacation planning on my mind too. good luck with your 20 miles for the month goal too. I used Fitness Pal and need to get back to tracking calories too. I picked up the Giver for my oldest, it took some time to get into it but he said it's pretty good and he likes that it's short :) I look forward to see what you're reading for Travel the World in Books too!

Freedom to Read Giveaway Hop

I Am A Reader, Not A Writer and Mundie Moms are hosting the Freedom to Read Giveaway Hop in honor of Independence Day in the United States, and I've decided to participate.

To stick with the theme of Independence Day, I'm doing what I did last year for this hop:

I'm giving away a book of your choice that is written by an author from the United States.
It can be any genre as long as the author is from the United States. You choose the book (up to $15), and I'll order it and have it mailed to you from Book Depository.

The contest ends on Thursday, July 5th at midnight Eastern Time. The winner will be notified by e-mail. If they do not respond within 48 hours, a new winner will be drawn.

Happy 4th of July! I hope you have a safe and fun holiday!

Getting back to blogging

It seems that blogging has dropped to the bottom of my list for the past year, and was pretty low for the year or two prior to that. I love to read, and am continuing to do so, but as my regular readers know I haven't been around much. My last blog post was almost a year ago!!

There are many things that have taken me away from blogging. Work has been much more challenging and interesting these past few years, but that means I really don't want to get back on the computer when I get home at night - or on the weekends.

Family life has been more busy with kids having multiple activities in the evenings, leaving little time to just hang out and write about the books that I read.

I will admit to a bit of a Facebook addiction, which means way too much time spent scrolling through my newsfeed instead of doing something more productive. This is one of the things I'm working on and hoping that this will free up some time for getting back to the blog.

Overall, life is good. Work is …
