Goals for the Week 15: From One Extreme to the Other
I wanted to title the post 'I Can't Freakin' Wait for Boston!' and then remembered I'm not actually running the thing (nor have I even ever ran a marathon for that matter!). But I'm just getting so caught up in everyone's journey coming up next weekend! Can't wait!
I can't post a pic of my current scene (the internet is MUY slow here), but I'm now up in Winter Wonderland Tahoe area for a few days, and it's fun to go from one extreme (ez breezy Hawaii) to the other in a 2 week period. I feel so, so, International...well, okay, maybe National, and only west of The Rockies. But it's memorable right?
And speaking of memorable, this is the first time the kids have seen snow. And we're with my mom and sister, so my focus is to appreciate my family and make some memories. So without further adieu here are my Goals for the Week:
Athlete: Keep filling in my feedback form dang it. I've actually learned a lot this week from doing it more diligently. Also while up here, I searched out the local pool to lap swim (I feel so responsible!). Let's just see what this altitude does for me!
Mom: Take in the snow and Tahoe through my kids' eyes
Daughter/Sister: Be present with each of them and tell them one thing I really appreciate about them while I'm here
Personal Growth: Revisit my Big Sparkle Notebook with my Long term goals. I figured a cabin up in the snow was a good place to do so eh?
Health: Be mindful of the snacking. Have a one gluttonous snack each day, and then call it quits!
As always, I write these goals on a bookmark I keep in my organizer and attempt to review them each morning as I plan my day. Would love to know how your week looks, and am SO looking forward to reading all your race posts and days leading up to the BIG B!

Wow, from beach to snow in a matter of a few days - lucky you! I love Lake tahoe, what a gorgeous place. I'd love to do that marathon one day, it's challening but just enough so that I'd like it!! But I'm glad I'm not there with the snow, more than enough for me (for like 4 years really...I wish!!). I love your snacking goal...I'm going to do that when I get back so that I don't get out of control like I was. Have a great week, AM!!!! Hugs!!
It will be so fun to experience that with your kiddos! Have a great time and thanks for the inspiration!
I think I will write down some goals for the week too.
Enjoy Tahoe, I bet your kids are loving all the snow!

Don't even let me start about Boston.
It is fun to be following so many people who are racing it! My husband travels back there...often....I could just go with him and cheer them all on!
I hope you have a great vacation!
I love all your goals..they inspire me...I read them and then say, "ditto!"
Love Tahoe. We ski there every year. I am hoping to do part of the rim trail this year.
