Goals/Wishlist

Hello lovelies...It's time again for goals and a wishlist. Now, I know what you are thinking (if you're an avid reader of this blog)...I suck at completing goals. It's sad but true. However, I still make them and make a wishlist. It's good for the soul. 
Or something.
I started working out again sooooo first goal...make it a habit, go 3x a week minimally for the next month.
Second, I spend too much money. So second goal, spend less and save at least $100 over the next month.
It's best if we start small here given my history.
So, here's my wish list. If I meet my goals, I get to pick one thing to buy. I only have two things:

How cute are these??!? That's all for now...

Until next time,

5 Things to Buy on Etsy for Fall

I love Etsy. I mean...who doesn't? I can only hope that one day I have enough time to make one of my many hobbies a part-time job. But until then, I will buy from others. Here's a list of 5 things you need to buy on Etsy right now for fall.

Uhm, how cute is this pillow from the Hello Home Boutique? Buy it here. I have personally purchased from Emily and she's awesome - quick to ship and custom makes each order. Ah-mazing. And who doesn't love a good reference to coffee? 

Keeping with the coffee and fall theme...how cute is this campfire mug?? Buy it here from PrettyCollected.

I am absolutely in love with this mason jar centerpiece. I really need this in my life - it would look PERFECT in my living room! Snag one here from DandEcustoms.

Fall isn't complete without a rustic Hello Fall sign. I mean...c'mon. Need one? Get it here from SimplySunshineDecor. 

And last but certainly not least...fingerless gloves with hooters (owls) on them...whaaaaat?? These are adorbs. Must have...purchase them now here from NobleCharacterCrafts.

Until next time,

January Goals & Wish-list

One post that I loved doing before was my monthly goals and wish-list. I would make a couple of goals and at the end of the month if I achieved those goals, I would reward myself with something from my wish-list. 
Life is short...and stressful. Why not treat yourself once in awhile? I recently went back to working night shift and it has messed up my daily schedule. I went from having a relatively stable schedule (Monday-Friday, weekends off) to a schedule that is different all the time. The only good thing is that I am back on 12-hour shifts, which means more days off. I'm in the middle of a 6-day stretch off...aaaah, it's wonderful. However, I need to get back on schedule with housework and going to the gym. 
My January goals are:
1. Go to the gym! Just go. More than once, but try to get into a routine again. When I worked nightshift before, I worked out pretty regularly. This is only my second week on my new shift, but it's time to get adjusted to a new schedule. No excuses.
2. Get rid of some clutter. By the end of the month, I want to throw out, give away or donate at least 10 items. 
Okay, now here's my wish-list...

Ooooh, look at all these goodies!!

One. The Northface Jacket    

Two. Converse Chuck Taylors

Three. Jessica Simpson purse    

Four. Alex and Ani bracelet

Here's hoping I achieve those goals...

August Wish-List and Goals

Oh, friends. I am failing miserably.
I can not get motivated to get up every morning and work-out. Why could I do this before and now I can't seem to jump on the work-out band wagon. Why can't I get motivated? I want to lose weight. I used to love working out. However, somehow, I can't seem to get up in the mornings and go.
What is wrong with me? Any inspiring words?
So, anyways, here is a recap of my July goals:

Saved $100...but then spent it on a weekend getaway. Success or no?

I lost 5 lbs....and gained it back.

I did not learn any new recipes.

Oh well, here is August's goals:

Now onto the August wish-list:

One. Black Mesh Yoke Peplum Tank Top from Torrid

Two. Light Wash Destructed Denim from Torrid

Three. Antique Gold Bird Horseshoe Turquoise Stacked Rings from Torrid

Day #319: June Goals and Wish-List

Okay, it is time again for my monthly goals and wish-list! To read my very first goals and wish-list post, click here.
I have learned that I really suck at monthly goals. Oui. Here were the goals for May:

I did NOT succeed. Zero craft tutorials, no blog and no gym. I did save $50 thanks to selling my old clothes on Poshmark. Fail.

Okay, here are my June goals:

Fashion posts...I need to get on this. I always say I am going to do it, then I don't. Mostly I am embarrassed to take pictures of myself. Also, I want to do a craft tutorial, just need to find one to do!!

Saving money isn't that bad, especially since I am selling fool on Poshmark. And the gym. I am running out of excuses. I am now a Monday-Friday, 8-4:30 worker so I can go before or after work. I need to!

Here's my wish-list:

One. Nike Tigers Track Jacket

Two. Journee collection slouchy boots

Three. Canon RC-6 Wireless Remote

Four. Chuck Taylor's in "Aruba Blue" (more like Tiffany blue!)

I am determined to get something on my wish-list this month. Here's hoping!

I literally just realized that it's May 5. Happy Cinco de Mayo!
So, I am way late on my monthly goals. Yikes!
Here is a list of my April goals:

Guess what? FAIL!!!! Yup. We saved $50. I did not go to the gym. And mother nature did NOT allow us to work in the yard. It rained and rained and rained and rained to the point of flooding.

So, May needs to be better.

So, the everyone month goals stand. Gym & save money. Maybe this time I will succeed? Also, I want to spice up the blog this month. Maybe vlog? Although I have to figure out how and what to use. Also, I need to find some fun crafts and make some tutorials. Okay, here is my wish-list:

One. Blue Floral Twin Print Chiffon Maxi Dress from Torrid

Two. Ivory and Black Lace Shoulder Top from Torrid

Day #260: Monthly Goals and Wish-List

This is a little late, but I did TERRIBLE on my March goals. Here's a recap:

Okay, I saved like $79. Barely. It's gone now in fact, but I saved it until yesterday.
I mostly avoided sweets and baked goods. I did eat cake on Shannon's birthday, which I felt counted as my birthday cake (bdays are 3 days apart). I also had some ice cream. heh...But I didn't have sweets as much as I normally do!
I lost 9 lbs. Gained back 2 lbs. Oui.
Alas, it's a new month and a new start. Here are my April goals and wish-list:

One. Belted Circle Pattern Lace Dress

Two. Tiger's White Nike Tank Top

Three. Nike Detroit Tigers Track Jacket

Four. Color-block Canvas Bag
