I can't believe that it's already been three months since posting my first "Weekly To-Do List" here on the blog. In that post, I shared a round-up of the top five goals (outside of work) that I wanted to accomplish that week! I'm big on making lists-- I love writing down everything I want or need to do and crossing them off once they're done. I like to make bullet points in the notes app on my phone! It helps keep me organized and prioritize the things that are very important or that may not be part of my normal routine. With a busy week ahead, I wrote out the top tasks I want to get done this week. Some are important and time sensitive, others are very simple!
MY WEEKLY TO-DO LIST
- BUY A BIRTHDAY GIFT - My sister has a birthday this week! I've already started buying for her birthday, however I still need to find her a main present and put everything together.
- LAUNDRY + CHANGE SHEETS - Three months later and I still hate changing my sheets, lol. The washing part isn't actually too bad, it's the folding or putting them on the bed for me! My mom still tells me all the time that "you're suppose to change them every week" so I'm penciling it in! Maybe one day it will become second nature for me! I also need to catch up on washing some clothes too.
- TARGET ORDER PICKUP - I probably didn't have to include this but I figured it's an exciting one, hehe!! Target enticed me to place a pickup order online today with a $15 off $50 coupon! If you're a Target shopper-- those are few and far between! You really just can't say no. 🤓 I ended up ordering a few new beauty items, a cat toy and some snackies/groceries. I bought Gold Fish pretzels which I've never tried!
- PLAN + SHOOT BLOG POSTS - I'm still putting up new blog posts on here every Monday, Wednesday and Friday! I always aim to put up one outfit post a week so shooting some blog photos for that is on the agenda for Tuesday.
- UPDATE BUDGET + FINANCES - I'm a little bit behind on updating my spending + budget in my Budget by Paycheck Workbook. Hoping to get caught up on those this week and take care of a few more financial things as well.
- WASH MY HAIR - I feel silly including this because obviously I was my hair every week! For years I've only washed it about once a week (normally the less you do the better), however I've been dealing with a lot of dry + itchy scalp issues. Washing more frequently can help so I'm going to give two or three times a week a shot. Washing/styling my hair "from scratch" is pretty time consuming so I think this one will be a little tricky for me.
- ROTH IRA CONTRIBUTION - This is the final week to make any last minute contributions to a ROTH IRA/Traditional IRA for the 2020 year. I tend to spread my contributions out so I have one last little bit to add in this week! For more info on this, check out this post on Why You Need to Open a ROTH IRA Now.
Excited for what I hope will be a productive and calm week! I miss chatting with you all so I'm going to try to pop on IG more this week-- you can find me @TheKristenDiary. Also share what is on your to-do list for the week! I'd love to know what you are up to :)
