Hello Lovelies!

Sorry this is a day late, I had to make an unexpected trip to Evansville yesterday. Even though it was unexpected, I'm actually really proud of the trip because it's the first time I've ever drove in a city. It was also the first time I've drive over a big bridge. Can you believe I made it and I didn't even take any anxiety meds beforehand?

The trip up wasn't bad, I had no problems. However, the trip back was a complete mess. Google maps wanted me to come back going by the riverfront, but there was construction and they had the road closed, then every time I tried to get it to reroute it kept taking me back to the riverfront. Finally I decided I was going to go back and try to take the Lloyd Expressway to get back to where I needed to be.

Well, that didn't happen either because the ramp going east was closed off for construction too! Instead I just decided to keep going straight, I figured eventually google maps would get it's shit together and quit rerouting me to the riverfront. It didn't!

Finally, a few miles later I got to the end of the road I was on and I knew where I was and how to get home. And of course that's when Google maps decided to start working!

May Goals

Hello Lovelies!

I cannot believe I haven't posted a monthly goals in months! Actually, I can believe it. I didn't realize until yesterday that I only posted Links to Love and Weekly Inspiration posts last month. 

Anyway, here's my goals for May!

Read 3 books.
I've been slacking in the reading department, so maybe this month I can get back to it.

Write 5 blog posts this month.
Last month I posted five times, but I only posted Weekly Inspiration posts and Links to Love. I didn't have any real content. I want to do my best this month and try to branch out.

Get back to blogging.
I want to get back into all things blogging. Reading other blogs, commenting on other blogs, link-ups, posting more, etc.

Work on Blog Design.
I still haven't got my blog design fixed from my major screw up a few months ago.

Finish my FAFSA.
I know, I know, I'm late on this one, but I already had the financial aid office at my local community college tell me that I won't qualify for any free money, my only option is loans.

Send in my high school transcript.
Now this is an easy one.

Work on managing my anxiety.
Here lately my anxiety has been acting up a lot. I'm hoping that this month I can focus on learning to manage my anxiety.

Lose 2 pounds. 
I've been going to the gym for a little over a month now and I can feel myself getting stronger and I love it!

Buy a new pair of shoes.
My current tennis shoes are worn out, between working 8 hour shifts on my feet and going to the gym 4-5 times a week, I need a new pair.

Find a new car. 
Let's be honest my Suzuki sucks, it's time for a new car.
