Monday I went to Walgreens, Walmart, Schnucks, & Aldi's with my husband & both kids because of the holiday and didn't bring any bags home.

Wednesday we had minor errands to run & I was looking for 12 red folders for a bible study project. I ended up getting 1 plastic bag at Dollar Tree, but I carried out all the folders w/o bags! :)

Friday I sent my husband to Dollar Tree to get more binders, but forgot to tell him no bag, so there was another 1.

Smart Habit Saturday

I am happy to report I have developed a new good habit & didn't even realized it! I remember wanting to do this after reading Christine's post about wanting to start a face care routine. Well, every night now, I remove my makeup w/baby oil, then use toner/astringent, then put on anti-aging eye & face cream & carmex on my lips.

The biggest habit I'm going to implement this year is regular exercise. I want to build up to 30 mins a day, 5 days a week. Right now I do about 30 mins a week. The rest of January I want to change that to 3 times a week, 30 mins each.

The exercise I'm doing right now is using the Wii. Yesterday I did 30 minutes Wii Sports, then 30 minutes Wii Fit.

I can already tell you the budgeting thing has crashed & burned! I do my part saving & all, but I cannot keep up w/DH's spending & to try & rein it in right now could land us in divorce court. I'll be back in June!

Starting May 1, I'm going to log everywhere our $$ goes & by the end of May, I will have a budget set up, then I'd like to work at reducing the amount of some categories & adding those amounts to a savings account. I've downloaded a program called Buddi to help me with this habit.

DD10 was home sick 3 days this week w/Strep, so it threw my whole schedule off. Right now, DH's work schedule is all weird too (weirder than the normal swing shifts) but I'm still aiming to get back on track w/Feb & April habits! I want to get back to spring cleaning for Feb which means cleaning & flinging & preparing for DD's birthday party this weekend! Since Tuesday is my last official bible study meeting, I won't be caught up, & I couldn't get the 2 past videos I needed last week, but I will keep working at it.

April--Religious studying. I was actively doing my bible study every morning M-F & reading a devotional during the parent pickup line M-F, but this seems to have slipped away since Christmas break. I have been reading the bible every morning while eating breakfast & sometimes thru the day, but I haven't done my bible study (it's Psalms & I don't understand it much. Psalms is what's slowing my bible reading right now too.) During parent pickup times, I've been flipping thru magazines, which I could still do, if I'd just read my devotional 1st.

So here's the April Plan: Catch up on bible study, then do a lesson a day, M-F (we only have 2 wks left), read 1 daily devotional during parent pick up BEFORE opening mail or magazine. Continue Jan habit & try to work on Feb & Mar too!
