    Ok well I'm gonna say I have one big goal today and it has to do with cleaning!! My kitchen is a disaster and somehow we forgot about a cooler full of dirty dishes from when we last went camping...over a month ago!!! I'm actually afraid to open it and smell it...:sick: Oh boy this is going to be fun:ohwell:

    Will be back if I finish that and maybe set myself some other goals.If not I'll see you all tomorrow.

    Barb, I know I've been keeping an eye out for you guys for something by me since they seem to be priced fairly deccent. I've also got the number for that landlord who owns the house next door to me. I know he would work with you guys :wink: It will get better!! I'll help ya get there too:smile: I know how much you hate eating out all the time.

    So I'm still working on my kitchen....man I had no idea how bad it had gotten. My hubby had done nothing except dirty dishes while I was sick. I don't get why he does that but he really hates cleaning. I hate it too but its gotta get done... I can't wait for us to remodel the kitchen next year. We will be putting in a dishwasher so I don't have to do them by hand anymore!! Well at least most of them.

    So my goal for today is to finish the kitchen. Then work on laundry that fell behind too. I swear I don't know what he would do without me. Nothing would ever get done lol.

    Kitchen is mostly done!! Just gotta sweep the floors:smile: Had a nice dinner out with Barb last night so we didn't dirty many dishes here yesterday. So now my goal today is getting the laundry caught up!! Already have 4 loads done and still have lots left, sheets all needed washed too.

    Keep up the good work everyone!! :flowerforyou:

    Goals for today:
    Start eating healthy again
    Drink water (even a little) and cut back on soda
    Take a walk

    If I start with very generic goals, hopefully, I'll be able to make more specific ones as I go :) I haven't been on MFP for a long time and definitely need the motivation to get myself back to healthy.
