1. Walk 500 miles this year
We had beautiful weather for two days this week, so I actually walked some of my miles outside. This week I walked 8 miles, so I am up to 50 miles for the year and only 450 to go.
2. Eat less than 30 net carbs a day
I did this for 6 out of 7 days
3. Add twelve new products to my Teachers pay Teachers store
One down and eleven to go
4. Have two date nights a month
Not yet, maybe this next weekend
5. Have family game night twice a month
For family game night this week, we played Disney’s Scene it and Scrabble. Our dessert was brownies and ice cream with a lot of chocolate sauce (I withstood temptation and had peanuts…)
6. Read two non-fiction books each month
So far I have read only one non-fiction book this month, but I plan to go to the library tomorrow to find my next one.
7. Buy nothing new
I did buy my son a little Hot Wheels car at the Dollar Tree because he said it looked like the Delorean (How could I say no to that!) So my perfect track record for the year is broken, but Ben was really happy, so that is something I guess.
**I usually let the kids save up their allowance money to buy toys and whatnot, but there was an “accidental” purchase of two Amazon kindle games that Ben made last week that ate up all of his allowance for the next two weeks (plus all of his money in his piggybank)…so Mama had mercy for a poor little boy:)
8. Have one no spend week each month Accomplished
9. $5 Weekly Challenge
I continued my breakfast theme from last week and decided to buy pancake mix and syrup to donate to the food bank…yum.
