I always shoot for getting this goals post up on Mondays.
But unless I spend the entire weekend at home, by the time Monday rolls around, there’s usually something else that more urgently needs to getย done beforeย this post.
This past Sunday, I spent around 6 hours at the NRA Show in Chicago. I know what you’re thinking. But this particular NRA Show would NOT be a show put on by the National Rifle Association. I don’t own a rifle or love guns, but I do enjoy cooking, which is why I attended the NRA Show — the National Restaurant Association Show. ๐
I had a great time, and it was nice to get away and just be alone. I don’t get to experience “alone time” often, but I did on Sunday. After it was over, my legs were killing me from all the walking, but I felt refreshed!
Anyway, here’s what I accomplished last week:

What are your goals for this week?
You really did a great job on your goals. Way to go, Sandra! Oh I bet the show was a lot of fun. I think I would have liked that one too as I love to cook.
Great job on clearing out your items you no longer need. I’ve been trying to keep our home decluttered and so far it’s been going fairly well. I really think before I bring a new item into the house and we have gotten rid of more items than we have purchased lately. I hope you have a productive week.
Thank you, Shelly! The NRA Show was fun and interesting, because it’s so different than attending a blogging conference.
And, yes, I try to really think before bringing new stuff into our home. ๐
