Weekly Challenge - What's your non-scale related goal?

Fall is finally here so it's time to start gearing up for my fall and winter soap making. So my goal this week is to get my kitchen cleaned up and my soap making area all organized and ready for some serious soap making this weekend. I need to make around 100lbs of soap this weekend to fill my xmas orders.

I love making soap though so really once I get everything set up it doesn't take much to get things moving along.

:-)

Do you sell your soap online?  My mom loves homemade soaps and I always try to get her some for Christmas...

I don't have an online shop yet. I mostly do local craft fairs and I have a general customer base of family and friends that order from me on a regular basis but I do have a paypal account set up so if you wanted to place an order I can accomodate you.  I will start shipping out soap November 17th so if you would like to order from me just send me a PM and I will send you a list of scents I work with.  :-)

Hugs Alison!

Goals:
1)  Go to bed earlier (shooting for 11pm this week)
2)  Swim 2 times and yoga 1 time

1) Stay on the track that I rediscovered and put myself on yesterday.  All that talk about 19 pounds to a normal BMI was actually off by 3 pounds! That's what I get for not weighing in a few days... I had no clue that I actually kept losing during the weekend.  In 16 pounds I will be a "normal" weight for the first time in 15 years...  and the first time in my adult life.  I'm going to make this happen :)

2) Take advantage of being on fall break to get in a little extra exercise.

3) Take advantage of being on fall break and get some extra sleep.  I never get enough sleep during the work week... this is something that must change.

4) Take advantage of being on fall break and grade a few papers.  As much as I hate the idea of working this week, at least my stress level will be significantly decreased when I go back next Monday because I won't have a nose-high pile of papers that I never get around to looking at.

5) Take advantage of being on fall break and get some grad school work done. 

6) Take advantage of.... you get the idea :) 

7) Find a way to stay warm!!!  I swear these last two days have felt more like winter break than fall break... like I feel that chill in the air and expect to look up and see my Christmas tree by the fire place.

It looks like i need a return trip to ATL and jump on that track...;)

 

Yes!!!  And bring Jenn (and warm weather) with you! :))))  I'm not working this week, so we could go running, find Zumba classes, etc every day and then go eat a healthy lunch :)

Hahaha....maybe running and yoga - if I never ever ever do another zumba class again, I wouldn't cry. I mean, it was hillarious and fun, but I CANNOT DANCE. Period. And my feet and legs hurt after like...5 minutes.

I wish I didnt HAVE to work this week.


But after my surgery - I have 6-8 weeks of nothing to do....if my body cooperates, maybe I'll just fly around the country visiting friends :)

Lol!  You sound like my husband.  There's a reason he only got on the dance floor for two songs, other than for the purposes of humiliating pictures ;)

When is your surgery?  If you do decide to come back out this way, you must let us know!  We'll find some way to get into recovery friendly trouble!

 I heard mention of a soon to be Cali conference, is this true?  I'll be there for sure then (unless it's bar prep time, in which case, I will be brain dead and unavailable).
