Ins & Outs July — belated

Came here to post an update; realized I never posted my July goals list.

In:

1. Moving — house and body — nope
2. Meditating — improved
3. Hugging — never enough
4. Board games — lots
5. Cleaning — yes
6. Healthy eating — meh

Out:

1. Overthinking expenses — yes
2. Limbo — yes
3. Pepsi — mostly

update 7/18

I have gone cold turkey on the Pepsi/soda for 2 weeks. Appear to have lost 3 pounds without any other efforts. Sleeping better.

Still haven’t gotten to daily meditation, but way more than June.

Cleaning and tidying all sorts of places in the house we haven’t touched often in 20 years: behind fridge and stove for the second time in two months, closet AC vents, linen closets, under sinks.

Moving — technically not until mid-August. Also too hot for much moving around outside. But doing more stretching.

For healthy eating, I hope homemade sourdough and premium ice cream count!

And we did the right amount of thinking of expenses when we decided to go with plan B, moving to the condo instead of renting a house while our house hadn’t yet sold.

Update 8/1:

Did not move (yet) after all. Did not move much for exercise either. Well, lots of stretching but little walking or biking.

Plenty of meditation.

Not enough hugs, but I didn’t get together with people much in July.

Loads of board games.

Yes on cleaning.

Meh on healthy eating. Less sugar sorta. Lots of consuming foods we already bought — using up what’s in pantry and freezer. So “healthy” for our pocketbook and storage! 😆

Yes to limbo ending! Decision made!

Nearly 100% quit on Pepsis. It’s back to rare occasional treat, not a daily thing.

Didn’t spend a lot of $ in July and we made good financial decision on moving, so money anxiety lessened.
