A summary...

I didn't meet any of my mini-goals I set for myself this week.  I'm not too happy about that.  But my list has been on my mind a lot and I'm already noticed myself changing some daily actions to keep myself more motivated.  Things are going well.

Just made a delicious Italian Style meatloaf.  Since cooking 20 meals in one month is one of my goals, I was wondering if any readers might be interested in me sharing recipes in my blog.  Let me know what you think! Leave a comment below...

I'm sure I'll never grow too old for toys

I stopped at Thrifttown yesterday to look for furniture I can dismantle.  I am particularly looking for the perfect legs for a suitcase that will be turned to a cat bed.  Instead, I found a bag full of Geocaching goodies!  (For more about what geocaching is all about, watch this video on YouTube)  I broke open the bag tonight and there was some really neat stuff in there.  Lots of tiny toys that will fit perfectly in caches.  I'm really tempted to keep some of them, but hubby says 'no'.  I'm sure I'll find lots of things that are just as neat while I'm doing my geocaching, so I suppose I can let these ones go make someone else happy.  :)

I'm going to start reading The Last Song tonight.  I'm a huge Nicholas Sparks fan, but this one has taken me a bit to get around to.  I'm really hoping it holds up to my expectations, I've been wanting to dig in to a good novel.

Looking forward to the week ahead

I've decided I want to be working on at least three of my goals per week.  Many of my goals I am able to work on one little piece at a time.  These are the type of goals I will be working towards this week because I will have very little time outside of work.

Here are some "mini-goals" I will be working on this week:

- Find 3 Geocaches (0/3)
- Find 1 Letterbox (0/1)
- Make 1 bag from the book Simply Sublime Bags: 30 No-Sew, Low-Sew Projects

I'm sure there will be a couple films watched and I may start a book, depending on downtime at work.

Have a great week!

Thank goodness for Netflix

101 movies could get pretty expensive, buying or renting.  That's why I love Netflix.  I watched The Time Traveler's Wife tonight.  It was an alright movie but seemed to move pretty slow.  I've wanted to watch it for a long time but was slightly disappointed.  Maybe if I get around to reading the book it will be better.  It usually is.

Now, I gotta get on to something else in my list to blog about.  I'm pretty terrible with these film reviews.

Watched "Paul Blart, Mall Cop"

I laughed.

Don't ask me why.
