Seasonal Bucket List Check In

You all LOVED my Spring Bucket List post and many of you mentioned creating your own – YAY! Here’s how I did this past month:

• Go on a Roadtrip to See the “Super Bloom” – Mission accomplished!
• Plan a Vacation – We leave for our next one on Friday!! Any guesses as to where we’re going?
• Get Outside More – I’ve been trying to take advantage of this nice weather by going for walks and sitting out on the patio <3
• Buy Some Cute Workout Wear and hit the gym – so I didn’t buy any cute workout wear BUT I did go to the gym for the first time in months – YAY!
• Go Through Spring/Summer Wardrobe and Donate – in process!
• Go on a Cruise – check! 😉

Annual Goals Check In

Anddd of course, I have to check in with my annual goals 😉

• Make Health a Priority – As you know, I’ve been experienced health issues for quite some time (you can read about it in more detail in this post). In March things got pretty serious so I had some blood work and an ultrasound done. Everything came back negative, so I decided to look more into my diet. Over the past month, I’ve been experimenting with dairy (taking it out and putting it back in for a week at a time) and have noticed an astonishing difference. I took a food intolerance test and just got my results back yesterday and well… let’s just say that I may have FINALLY found the issue(s). I’ve ruled out a ton of things but now I’m pretty certain that stress AND food issues (which could have come from the stress) are the main cause of my symptoms. I will share my results with you on Friday!! Also, unrelated but I now have carpel tunnel  – I cannot get a break haha!
• Be More Selfish – The older I get, the more important my time becomes. I’ve been learning how to say “no”  to everyone else so I can say “yes” to myself more. This month, I went completely off the grid for the first time in FOUR years… and it felt amazing! Of course, I won’t be disappearing al the time, but it was a really good feeling to have some much needed time to myself.

What I’m Looking Forward to in May

• My 6th Wedding Anniversary! <3 Where/how should we celebrate? 
• More travel!
• Watching the new Avengers movie haha!
• Making health changes and perhaps an even more life-changing decision. 

Hope you loved my April 2019 month in review!

What did you do in April?
