Good-bye April- Hello May Goal update

My goals for April were with Updates in RED

Clothing 1 in 1 out at least.  Now that I've done a large purge it will be harder and I can start to really curate what I want/need and what works for me. Well I have done another PURGE and after 3 years made space for J in the closet in our bedroom, I also cleared out 3 drawers for him.  I have purchased no clothing.  (I guess I did buy 2 pairs of jeans, but they don't fit so I'm returning them when we are allowed to go places and return things again).

Make up-- I'm not using much so I don't need anything more.  Keep going with the no-buy. I certainly have a wish list, but again I'm curating it and I'll get myself something nice for Christmas.
I certainly had things I WANTED this month, but still doing great on the No-buy even through the SEPHORA VIB sale- I don't think I've ever done that before, so that was a win. 

I am making great progress on using up products too: 
Half way done with a new lotion, finished half of a face milk, Serious dents in shampoo and conditioner. Half way done with a face scrumb and my shaving creme is nearly done as well.  

Health- Keep enjoying quarantine.  Get out for a daily walk in the sun.  Make food at home.  Enjoy time off and high levels of rest.
Thank you to J for pulling me out of the house and making me get outside. I sometimes throw a fit about it, because it involves getting real clothing on, but he pushes and I'm happy he does. It's been good for me to get out. 

I am still working on balance and mostly failing, lots of fails on this one right now. Not a lot of balance in the special education world right now. 
 
Communication- Stay in contact with people, stay connected, have those tough conversations.
I talk with my parents a few times a week. I have connected this month on Zoom to all of my family and several friends and I need to keep that going. If I've ignored your invites keep sending them I need to pull myself out of this funk. 


Goals for May:
1) Try at least 4 new restaurants or food locations in the Seattle area using take out/ delivery
2) Keep using up those beauty products and take real stock of what I have, and how to use it up.
3) Keep staying active
4) Connect to family every week
5) Finish 1 of my eLearning courses so I can chip away at my clock hour goal.
