Bucket List (January) Update.
18:33My bucket List for January didn't quite go as plan but I did achieve a few things.
January was a very stressful month, probably the most stressful month I've had for a long, long time. A lot happened. Some good. Some bad. I'm not sorry to see the back of January if I'm honest. Anyway, here's an update on my January bucket list/goals.
Loose 4lbs - Didn't happen. I have however, started back on the weight loss train and have been eating very healthy this week. I've got a slight cold at the moment but I will get back into workouts and what not when I feel 100% better. In the mean time I'll sort my eating habits out.
Go for long family walks - We did go for a walk and fed the ducks. The weather wasn't really on our side. We had a lot of wind and rain during January so I'm glad we made the most of the weather while it WAS on our side.
Read two books. I read one. I read "The good Girl"
Learn two new healthy recipes. Again, this didn't happen. I have looked a few up though and saved them.
Have a movie night with the kids - We did this! And it was great fun. Actually we had two movies nights. We do love our family movies, hehe.
Have a games afternoon/Evening with the kids - We did this too. We played Monopoly, dog bingo and mouse trap. It's always good fun playing board games and cheers me up. A lot.
Organise the kids rooms - Yes! I did this and I did quite a bit of organising throughout January. I do need to invest in a new chest of drawers for the boys though.
Build a snowman - We didn't get any snow. Actually we did get a little tiny bit of snow but it didn't settle on the ground. Boo! You never know though, perhaps we'll get some snow this month - preferably in half term would be perfect, hehe.
STAY ORGANISED! I pretty much did achieve this. I am trying to stay organised and keep on top of things, so far, so good! :)
How did you do with your January bucket list/goals?

I think you did really well in January and I like the idea of setting monthly goals. Movie nights are loads of fun! x
ReplyDeleteSounds like your January was ok and your did get to achieve some of your bucket list. My January went from bad to worse, I have written January off and starting again in February x
ReplyDeleteI've never thought about having a monthly bucket list but it seems like such a good idea. A great way to focus and celebrate each month and the things you have achieved.
ReplyDeleteIt is great you managed to stay organised! I wanted to build a snowman but we also did not have any snow.
ReplyDeleteI set so many goals for myself and met none of them! I am quite clearly a failure haha
ReplyDeleteWell done on the ones you managed to keep though I think you did a really good job!

I think you did really well! Okay, you didn't meet all of your January goals but you gave it a flipping good try! Well done!
ReplyDeleteI have never heard of dog bingo before lol! What are the rules and I love going for walks too!
ReplyDeleteHaven't really kept ontop of my January blogging goals as I've posted very little this month. I think I'm on track to being much more organized in February though so I haven't lost hope! Great that you managed to do so many fun activities with the kids :)
ReplyDeleteThe good thing is at least you achieved some of the goals if not all.
ReplyDeleteI too set monthly plans as they are easier achieve than great big yearly ones but also when a month isn't a great one the next month isn't so far away to try again x keep the faith hunny x
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed The Good Girl, I thought it was a great thriller!
ReplyDeleteI love family nights in watching movies and I love going for long walks!
ReplyDeleteReading quite a lot this month. I hope it continues.
ReplyDeleteOh dear, plans do really change but there are still 11 months to go.
ReplyDeleteYou managed quite a lot! I think a monthly bucket list is a great idea, I might start one, it would help me keep on top of my goals!
ReplyDeleteI managed some of mine which I am quite happy with. I could probably have achieved more but I was so busy last month!
ReplyDeletea monthly bucket list is a good idea. A great way of making sure you get things done you really want to.
ReplyDeleteI think you did really well - I like the idea of monthly bucket lists - I must do one for February. Kaz x

ReplyDeleteWell done on ticking a few things off your bucket list, you're doing better than me :)
ReplyDeleteI never set goals as I dont stick to them, but you did really well x
ReplyDeleteVery brave organising your children's rooms. I find its never going to happen and gets worse when they hit the teenage years
