November Goals

Marcia has prompted me to think about and write down my November goals.  Mine are lofty, but I believe some are very doable.  Here we are:

Personal
  • Work out 6 days a week (I'm trying to become a person that works out daily.  It's good for my back issues)
  • Practice my morning, after work and evening routines everyday
  • Get up and dressed before the flow of the family (I'm pretty bad about this)
  • Plan for the holidays (both Thanksgiving and Christmas)
  • Build my Financial Control Journal and budget
  • Meal Plan weekly - even if it's just documenting what we did eat, LOL
  • Blog on my progress on these items
Work
  • Ensure the completion of the conversion we're working on goes smoothly
  • Finish and deliver the presentation I've been working on to my boss's boss (Sr. Director) and my team
  • Transition the planned work to the new Mumbai team
  • Keep minor ad-hoc requests at bay at work in emails
I'll report on 12/1/2011 with how I made out....

The kids looked great for Halloween! The boys are so big! I'm full of admiration that you can work and keep things sane on the home-front. I work PT but have to go back full-time in a year or two and terrified our house will fall apart when I do so. Your blog should be called 'Super Awesome Mom"!

Bad Dreams Go Away Magic Spell

Wow! Two posts in one day!!! I just had to blog about this. Indigo Girl had posted about her daughter having bad dreams and looking for advice. I had to post what we do in our house to keep away bad dreams. I have to admit it was one of my most brilliant mommy moments as I pulled this one out of my a$$ when I came up with it. When Phoebe was about 3 or 4 years old, she started complaining about nightmares. I knew it was half true and half stalling for bedtime. She has always been very into witches, wizards and spells (heck she was named after the character on Charmed and my due date was Halloween), so I came up with a magic spell on the spot to keep away bad dreams. I figured all it had to do was rhyme. I will share it with you all and feel free to try it if you need it: Bad dreams, bad dreams go away In Phoebe's dreams she must play She should dream of ice cream and cake Until the morning when she wakes She loves it! She still asks for it sometimes if she's had a ni...

Stopping the Voices in my Head - aka Mastering my Mindset

The more I work on my personal development, the more I realize I need to stop listening to and changing the negative things I tell myself in my head.  I'm also noticing the older I get the more the negative things I hold as beliefs about myself are not true.  This reinforces that I should second guess the other negative beliefs I hold inside ... maybe those are not true either.  Here are a few things I've realized are not true: I need help to put air in my car tires - This was one of the first things I learned as my husband had to move to Colorado for work. I did this at the Wawa up the street where the machine will stop and beep when your tires are at the right pressure.  I also learned and committed to memory that the pressure you want your tires at is inside your gas cap, something I have to open at least once a week.  This was something that was super easy to learn to do and had me zipping along the roads in a few minutes without the anxiety...
