March Goals

Linking up with Beth to talk all about my March goals!

This is my first "monthly goals and mantras" link up, so I don't have a report on how February went but let me tell you... gosh last month felt SO long.

Ok. On to this month's goals: 

1. Make a dentist appointment. And I am SO terrified. I know, it's irrational. 
2. Reorganize (& maybe install shelves in) my office closet. Have to get hubby on board to help! 
3. Meet all work deadlines this month. Last month was ROUGH. I was totally overwhelmed and not checking my calendar really screwed me. I'm already doing much better with it this month so far. 
4. Read 3 books. This is so, so, SO needed because my reading slump struggle has been REAL. And I hate that because I don't feel like myself when I don't read. 
5. Catch up with friends. Time with the girls is good for my soul and boy do I need a little of that lately!
6. Request a day off work. I need a day off that I'm NOT sick, please!

Thanks to Beth for hosting this link up! I think it will be good for me to take time and write out a monthly list of things to work on. 

That's it for my goals for March. Time to get to work!

    Do yourself a favor and book a day off where you do nothing but good and kind things for yourself. ;)

    Happy March!

Friday Favorites! A hodge podge of random things

The other day I was going through Goodreads, picking out books I wanted to add to my library wishlist (I always say, searching for books is a completely separate hobby from reading, lol!). I came across Fredrick Bachman's newest release,  Anxious People . I always look at the quotes page to see if I vibe with the author's writing style. Man, does this book have some nuggets of wisdom! There are so many poignant quotes. This one resonated with me, just thinking about how overwhelming life can get when all those little things pile up: "Because the terrible thing about becoming an adult is being forced to realize that absolutely nobody cares about us, we have to deal with everything ourselves now, find out how the whole world works. Work and pay bills, use dental floss and get to meetings on time, stand in line and fill out forms, come to grips with cables and put furniture together, change tires on the car and charge the phone and switch the coffee machine off and not forget

coffee chat

If you and I had coffee, we would likely get a table outside. Mask mandates have been lifted here, so we would be able to feel a bit "normal" while sitting at a coffee shop with our drinks. I would probably put way too much creamer or syrup in my coffee, and you'd tease me and ask if I want some coffee with my cream. I'd roll my eyes but laugh because you're right. I love me a good indulgent coffee. It's the one "unhealthy" thing I won't budge on.  We would catch up, since it's probably been a really long time since we have gotten together in person. We'd agree that while facetime/ Zoom chats were an okay substitute, nothing compares to face-to-face girl time.  I'd tell you about how the weight on my shoulders feels a bit less "heavy" even though every now and again there are still some really dark days. I would admit that though they don't come as frequently anymore, they do come out of the blue. I'd talk about how

This week's favorites

Hello Friday, we meet again! Man am I glad it's the weekend. Let's talk favorites, shall we?  My meal plan this week has been one of my favorites so far. It was super delicious and had really easy recipes! This week's lineup was: tacos, beef stir fry, chicken and broccoli casserole, homemade pizza, teriyaki chicken and veggies, and fajitas. I love that the meals we chose had only a few, really simple ingredients that are pantry staples, which made my grocery bill very reasonable. I also tried out a new recipe this week- slow cooker chicken and stuffing and it was so delicious. I made it for myself when Val went out for guys' night- he doesn't eat stuffing so I took advantage of him being out of the house haha. Speaking of meal plans, I purchased a meal planning kit from Passionate Penny Pincher . It comes with 12 weeks of recipes, 72 meal cards, reusable grocery lists, some blank recipe cards, and a recipe box. It was on sale and I think it will be a worthwhile inv
