Happiness Project Week 2

I had a great week!! I hope you all did too!

I am finding that setting smaller goals really is helping me stay focused!!  I LOVED all the tips on cleaning out my closets - and I think - seriously - I incorporated them all!! I took a couple of pictures of tops that I loved, but never wore - and off they went.  I saved some shirts to make a T-shirt type quilt, and I flung with abandon.   Only the shirts though - I don't want to go crazy!  2 bags of shirts ( good ones, the yucky ones went to the barn) are on there way to a new home!

By making my piecing time a priority - and telling my family that it was important to me this week - really helped! I didn't feel guilty when I had 10 minutes, if I sat and pieced, versus cleaning the kitchen ( or some other cleaning task)

And!!! I got a lot done! I have string blocks ready to be trimmed, I added blocks to my Jacob's Ladder, AND!!! I have finished two steps of Patchworktimes.com ' s quilt a long

I am still trying to eat healthier - I have found that some days 2 salads is too many - so... I will try to add more vegetables thru - out the day!! My whole family loved my 2 fruits per day thing - but you all.... that is 10 fruits a day!! Holy Cow!!! when a person checks out with that much fruit.... they get funny looks!!!!  ( I only shop once a week!)

This week - some things that have been bothering me are taking front and center. My car - has 4 cracks in the windshield - I want that replaced... and my Ranch Truck - one of the door handles collided with something... and it won't lock. Both of these require trips to town - so I think I am going to focus on that. It's not  big thing - but they are annoying things to me!!

Remember - I also love to hike...so I drug the family along yesterday and we went to Rocky Mountain National Park... oh my - it was still snowpacked - and we LOVED it!!!
