Motivated March

March, I am so happy to sit in your sunshine that teases the start of springtime.  February was a month of self-motivation, of listening to my body and mind and resetting my life without a work schedule.  

I set up a TON of goals for February , time to recap what was accomplished:
Fair February, what shall be my Focus?
1. Finish Singapore/Christie posts I love finishing up a pile of posts!
2. Find 7 new activities/places in Seoul: found and you'll be reading more about them soon;)
3. Try 5 new fitness workouts: really was lovely to mix up my workouts this month!
4. Share some love: Snail Mail to family & friends: signed, sealed, delivered!
5. Finalize clean-up of studio space & work thank yous: 1/2 way there
6. Create Something Special for my Valentine;): an ipod update and favorite dinner cooked for my fave man
7. Organize & Clean: The office
8. Organize & Clean: Closets (4: bedroom, office, pantry, hallway)
9. Organize & Clean: Create Family Binder
10. Organize & Clean: The porch and area behind aircon unit
11. Online Orders: Complete: 1/2 way there
12. Share some LOVE each week on the blog: LOVE this and it shall continue!

As I look back on last month, I feel so proud of all I was able to accomplish.  This quote seems just about right for March:

Moving is always hard.  I feel less frazzled this time around, but the battle with the lack-of-control still leaves me a bit stressed. What I can control is being as organized as I can be.  I can get all our stuff ready to leave. I can pack. I can plan the fun parts and also make the adult-annoying phone calls.  I can control my attitude.

 With that in mind, the month ahead:

MARCHing On:

1. Pretty-up the Team Swo binder

2. Do the same to my pro binder

3. Go to one yoga class a week

4. Create a dance class schedule

5. Do one set of fitness cards a week

6. The big areas are clean, hooray! Now focus on the piddly ones: 1. empty all bags/purses 2. donate clothing 3. scrapbook area 4. sewing area 5. bathroom 6. underneath sink/kitchen/fridge

7. Make lists of: 1. unaccompanied shipping 2. what to pack for vacay 3. what to send out on our own

8. Final packages from Korea, make and ship

9. Sort out vacay plans (and share!) 

10. Start crossing off the last-of-Korea checklist

11. Wrap up all work: 1. turn in key/thank yous/ submit pics to parents

12. Keep cooking through ingredients at hand

13. Phone call list to be made (insurance company, credit cards, etc) 

14. Stay present. You can do this. 

My note to end on? No regrets:
