I thought about it and realized there is never a time when I have nothing I need or want to do. Maybe that's just a part of life or the hustle culture we're accustomed to. I think it's a double-edged sword in some ways. On the one hand, having goals and to-do lists are essential for making progress and moving forward. On the other, having too many things at once can be a counterproductive. For me, creating a balance between the two has been key. If you've ever read any of my "to-do list" posts, you'll know I will put anything on a to-do list if it's important/time sensitive, not something I willingly want to do or something I might want to do but I have a harder time actually doing it.
This weekend feels like a good time to reset and refocus so I thought I'd share my top goals + plans for the weekend in between working and my normal day-to-day.
+ FINISH MY BOOK - I'm finally back on my reading kick which feels so good. One of my top priorities right now is to finish up Where the Crawdads Sing so that I can go see the new movie. I'm a little over halfway right now and the goal is to finish it this weekend. I have Tuesdays off from work so a movie date has my name written all over it!
+ GROCERY SHOP - I've been back in a weird place of trying to eat healthier but not really succeeding? I've also been eating out for most meals and while I still keep it pretty healthy, there's definitely some room for improvement. I'd like to get back into eating at home more for breakfast and lunch so a grocery run is in store. My issue is usually making the time to prep healthier options. It's also nice sometimes to just pick something up and relax on break so I need to figure something out that sticks. I'll keep you posted once I get there! ;)
+ CATCH UP ON GILMORE GIRLS - This might be silly but mentally I also struggle with what activities to spend my free time on.... ???!! I recently started re-watching Gilmore Girls which I am loving all over again, however it's been getting the boot between Where the Crawdads Sing and whatever else I end up doing. I'm definitely that person, ya'll. I'm telling you my problem is always wanting to do too much at once. That's why I'm penciling it on here... if I write it down I'm more likely to remember to make time for it.
+ BIRTHDAY SHOP - My mom's birthday is on Sunday so of course I'll be celebrating with her and the fam. I've done most of my shopping for her but still need to pick up a few more things to finish off her gift!
+ WASH SHEETS - At the bottom of the list because it's my least favorite thing to do, lol. IYKYK.
Cutting it off there because Lord knows it'll be a win if I get these all done! What are your plans this weekend?
