Meatless eating became part of our regular eating and does not need to be a separate part of the week.<br />5) Did not race in a new state this month.<br />6) The twisted ankle slowed me down.<br />7) Maintained this goal. :)<br />8) Threw it out to FB world that I want to write memoirs, but I still need a client.<br />9) The bag resolution flopped. The town has stalled on their goals. We are working on purging in the hopes of selling next year.Jacquelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09540227396775458009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2929969032432865144.post-89462641888098014862014-11-01T16:12:06.241-04:002014-11-01T16:12:06.241-04:00September and October updates

2) Eve...September and October updates<br />1) No parties<br />2) Even with long races, this goal is not achievable <br />3) Still reading a lot, but not updating Goodreads as I should<br />4) Meatless Monday is going well. Everyone is willing to try new recipes.<br />5) Raced in Massachusetts (September) and Delaware (October)<br />6) Still working on maintaining that pace with more regularity.<br />7) Still posting a photo a day.<br />8) I've had a lot more stories with US 1 (etc) but have not taken the plunge to start the biography business. <br />9) The town is stalled in this goal, but we are voting on a bag resolution this week.Jacquelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09540227396775458009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2929969032432865144.post-30192635176131161382014-09-01T18:18:51.711-04:002014-09-01T18:18:51.711-04:00August updates
1) No parties. :)
2) Now that I'...August updates<br />1) No parties. :)<br />2) Now that I've started biking, I might make this goal since the GPS tracks both. On the other hand, that feels like cheating.<br />3) Still reading a few books a week. Have not been good about updating GoodReads, but I do update my spreadsheet.<br />4) Continuing to do well on the Meatless Monday goal. Ashley has been great about at least trying everything. Need to try new recipes next month as I have been getting into a rut.<br />5) Race in Montreal!! My first international race. :)<br />6) Made this goal with a time of 34:39!<br />7) Still posting a photo a day (okay, a few days behind, but will catch up as soon as I can get back on Don's computer).<br />8) Freelancing has still been dry. I'd like to go back to writing biographies. I need to find subjects willing to pay me, though.<br />9) The town is still stalled with this goal. We are taking our compost to a neighbor's house (which is cutting down significantly on the amount of trash we generate) but can't seem to get the word out about the project.Jacquelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09540227396775458009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2929969032432865144.post-71316043447615963492014-08-20T17:39:27.487-04:002014-08-20T17:39:27.487-04:001) Big party in honor of George and Martha's w...1) Big party in honor of George and Martha's wedding.<br />2) Not a chance of catching up to that goal, but thems the breaks.<br />3) I keep reading. I'm sure I'll easily make this goal.<br />4) Continuing to do well with the Meatless Monday goal.<br />5) Raced in NYC!!! My times were lousy, but I did it!<br />6) Still not there.<br />7) Still posting a photo a day. <br />8) Freelance work has been pretty dry this summer.<br />9) The town is also stalling in this goal. Not sure how to get the word out.Jacquelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09540227396775458009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2929969032432865144.post-67876989124249397522014-07-15T20:54:12.579-04:002014-07-15T20:54:12.579-04:00July updates..

Between being on vacation and the heatwave, I have been running a lot less often this year.<br />3) 76 read so far and the year is just half over.<br />4) Slacked off this month due to lousy choices on vacation, but when given the opportunity for a veggie or hemp burger over a meat one, I took it.<br />5) Should have raced in Portland, OR. The race was a mile from the hotel. Trouble was I only discovered it as it was starting and I was still in the hotel room. Missed opportunity.<br />6) With the lack of training runs has come a slide in my running times. If it doesn't happen in July's race, I'll have to find one in the fall.<br />7) Still posting a photo a day, even when I don't want to.<br />8) Finished the librarian job, putting out feelers for next school year. Leaning towards working more for Karen and not for a school. Best opportunities for flexibility.<br />9) The township has 200 families signed up. Still need another 100.

We hosted two birthday parties for Ashley.<br />2) Still behind, but have had more weeks of running 10 miles, just not many weeks of exceeding the goal. Training picks up in July.<br />3) Lost count, but am on track.<br />4) Still on track with MM, lots of hits, unfortunately also hitting some food ruts.<br />5) Found a race I want to do in NYC, but need to register for it. It will take place in July.<br />6) Hitting this goal more often in training. Need to sign up for a 5K and do it in reality.<br />7) Still posting a photo a day. Nearly broke the streak last week, but woke up in time and took a picture of the dragon at 11 PM.<br />8) Same, wearing too many hats and not feeling fulfilled with any of them.<br />9) The township is closer to its goal of 300 families. I'm struggling with this goal. Struggling with decluttering, too.Jacquelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09540227396775458009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2929969032432865144.post-61450298519604371802014-05-14T20:03:53.885-04:002014-05-14T20:03:53.885-04:00April updates (two weeks late):

Many hits. Trying many new recipes.<br />5) Second race of the year was at Rutgers, but still in NJ. Hoping to sign up for one in NYC.<br />6) Hovering near this goal in training.<br />7) Still posting a photo a day. Some days are easier and more exciting than others.<br />8) Still at the one day a week librarian job, plus freelance for ODP, plus writing for US1. Keeps me busy.<br />9) I see this as being carried over to 2015. ;)Jacquelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09540227396775458009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2929969032432865144.post-17749197090473859392014-04-02T07:18:02.572-04:002014-04-02T07:18:02.572-04:00March updates: overall way off goals.

I have signed up for a 10 mile race in October, so the second half of the year will have more miles in it.<br />3) 41 books so far. Guess with not running, I have more time to read.<br />4) I took off this week from this goal, but have been having more than one MM meal a week. <br />5) Only one race so far, and that was in NJ.<br />6) Closer to 35:00 in training.<br />7) Still posting a photo a day. Some days I take lots of pictures, other days I don't.<br />8) Started my one day a week librarian job. No health benefits, but I do get paid for days off, and am paid overtime for extra days worked.<br />9) Not happening. <br />Jacquelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09540227396775458009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2929969032432865144.post-11356947306654176402014-03-02T16:35:44.625-05:002014-03-02T16:35:44.625-05:00February updates:

I'm trying new recipes and so far they have been hits.<br />5) No races in January, in NJ or out of.<br />6) Again, no races yet this year, but I've had a few training runs under 35 minutes so there is hope.<br />7) I've posted a picture for every day in January (okay, I haven't done the 31st yet).<br />8) Still working on a professional goal. I'm feeling the itch for something more permanent.<br />9) a) Trying to encourage people to sign up.<br />b) Not happening.Jacquelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09540227396775458009noreply@blogger.com
