April Goals

It’s goals time!

*tumbleweed*

I know, I know, I haven’t been doing so well with my goals recently , so I’m taking a different approach in April.  You know you want to read on… *wink wink*

BLOG GOALS

Blog as much as I am able to

This is a goal I am carrying on from March.    It’s taken me 4 years of blogging, but I’ve finally realised that I write my best work when I want to, not when I am telling myself to.   Sometimes I do want to blog, and other times there’s nothing I need more than to watch TV or read a book .  I need to stop putting so much pressure on myself; if I was going to become a “blogging superstar” it probably would have happened by now, no?

PERSONAL GOALS

Finish A Dance with Dragons (Book One!)

A strange goal, I know, but this book has spent too much time on my bedside table.  I swear it watches me, taunting me that I don’t have the willpower to finish i t.  George, y u make your books so long?  Y u describe EVERYTHING BUT THE STORY?   Once I finish this, I will be able to pick up the FINAL book ( for now ) and be free of this saga!   Would you believe I started reading the ASOIAF saga nearly two years ago?!

Reduce the candy stash

Another goal to carry on from March , but seriously , it’s getting bad.  I really need to get it under control.  There is too much of it now, and if I try and eat it all I will end up making myself quite poorly. It’s time to be tough , throw away stuff that probably has gone off, and give away any thing I won’t eat.  I also need to get out of the mindset that I need to review every single thing I have, and just enjoy the candy.

Carry on with beauty ban

Even though my spending ban ends mid-April, I think I will stick to it until the end of the month.  Even though there have been times where I have nearly given in, I actually don’t miss buying make up.  It’s gotten much easier to resist temptation!   It’s shocking when you realise how much you used to spend to try and keep up with other bloggers…

I haven’t set myself too many goals this month as it’s actually my birthday this month; I don’t want to be a big ball of stress leading up to my birthday!  Hopefully by having a chilled out, easygoing month it will mean I will be charged up and ready for some challenges in May!

Have you set yourself any goals for April?
