7 things - update!

1. USA Picture Wall.
I have a number of photos from my various America trips and inspired by Pinterest (feel free to follow me there!) I've bought black frames and other crafty bits to display them. Just need to do it!

Still do plan to do this

2. Post at least SOME of my rubbish on eBay.
I've cleared stuff out, its all sitting in bags and boxes in the spare room. Just need to actually list it now and get it out the house.

This is taking a smaller priority than the USA picture wall if I run out of time :)

3. Stop being so defensive
This is linked to the post spinning its way around my head. Fairly self explanatory on the surface though.


Hmm....Kinda I think ;)  Although apparently now I'm "soft" - you just cant win sometimes!

4. Do an amazing job at my work event over the weekend
(This is a bit of a cheat as I always pull 140% at my events, but none the less its going to be a long weekend, potentially in the rain so its good to remind myself)


Yup! Succeeded in an awesome event! Knackered but well pleased with myself afterwards. I even held an owl:


5. Eat better. 
Even just a few extra veg, less chocolate - stop eating crap!

Weekend of chips and burgers being the only food available kinda put pay to that. I ate as healthy as I could when I have the choice though.

6. Be amazingly supportive big sis at Jess's art exhibition tomorrow. 
She's been working SOOO hard on her college FMP and I know its going to be amazing, but I want to make sure I take note and comment on every little detail that I can.

Yup! She didnt seem up to hearing it though as she's spent too long on it now and just wanted to be done with it. I was impressed though :)

7. Apply for the thing I sent myself the email about
Sorry that's a bit vague. You can probably work out what "applying" for something is though ;)



I should have done this. However...the weekends event and meeting so many people the charity is involved in has given me a fresh lease of life. At least a couple months worth anyway! 


So all in all not a badly productive week I dont think.

7 things

Ooh you're getting spoilt. Two blogs in one day and a third brewing away in my head. But that ones a real rambly one that I'm not sure even makes sense and I didnt think you needed that on top of the homesickness one :)

Moving on...

One of my fav bloggers as I have previously mentioned is Louise over on Sprinkle of Glitter. She is really awesome - very down to Earth and positive, I love reading her posts, and watching her YouTube vids - whatever the subject.

Some of her recent blog posts have been on "7 things" - setting yourself 7 achievable manageable targets to achieve in 7 days (or a set time period)

As I have a number of things in my head to do I think this is a perfect thing for me. Although I think I will need help in remembering to do them, which is why I'm loving this group community feel that this post (tag?) is encouraging. Please leave comments reminding me to get off my bum and get these things done, and I will aim to do the same for you (and maybe even borrow some of the more amazing goals I see people setting themselves)

Hmm that was much easier than I thought it would be. And I think they ARE achievable. Easily. Now....to begin the work!
