It feels like a good week for an updated "weekly to-do" list. Ya'll know I love making lists and I 100% think they make you more productive. The key for me is keeping them manageable by not putting too many things on the list. I also like to focus on the things that I either want or need to do, but that aren't necessarily daily habits. For me, this is things like going to workout or doing laundry. They are constantly popping up on my weekly schedule, however sometimes it takes a little extra resolve for me to get them done. I also make sure to add in fun things like going to the movies, shopping, etc. It's nice (and essential) to prioritize fun too. Sometimes it's easy to skip out on when life gets busy if you aren't intentional about making plans.
ON THE AGENDA:
+ ORANGETHEORY WORKOUT - OTF is starting to become a regular part of my Tuesdays, however I still have to push myself to go. Right now I'm just going once a week which for me is the easiest on an off day. Usually I prefer Tuesdays over the weekend so I push myself to get it out of the way first thing. Eventually I plan to add in more classes each week but for now I'm building up my once a week habit.
+ INFRARED SAUNA - I've also added in weekly sauna sessions too. I've always wanted to try out a sauna so I finally went for the first time a few weeks ago. It's great for preventing a lot of diseases in the body as well as for your immune system, sleep health, pain relief, relaxation + more. I've been doing 25 minute sessions after my workouts on Tuesday which has been so nice. It feels great and has been really relaxing but I'll keep you posted on my thoughts after going for a little while longer!
+ NEW COMPUTER SETUP - My sweet parents surprised me with a new computer this week! My laptop has been on it's last leg of storage full for about a solid two years now. I knew I would need to upgrade eventually but I figured I would just keep using mine until it died, lol. They surprised me with a new one last weekend so of course setting it up on is on my to-do for this week! THX Mom & Dad!
+ BIRTHDAY SHOP - It's JJ's birthday week which means lots of fun, cake + pressies for him. In true KP fashion, I still have a few things left to pick up for his present, lol. Guys are so hard to buy for which usually leaves me scrambling last minute. When in doubt, buy them the things they don't know they need! Haha!
+ CELEBRATE JJ'S BIRTHDAY - Obviously we'll be having our own little party for his actual bday too. I'm not sure what he'll want to do this year-- some years we've gone out for dinner, others we've just picked up takeout and watched a movie. What do you usually do on birthdays?
+ SHEETS & LAUNDRY - My least favorite part of the list, always. Lol. I actually enjoy the process of putting the laundry in the wash, I just hate the rest of it. IYKYK!
+ TAXES - The tax deadline is coming up, ya'll. I thankfully don't have to file my own, however this week I need to get everything together for my accountant. Here's your reminder if you haven't done yours yet because time is ticking. PS-- it's also a great time to make some last minute contributions to your ROTH/Traditional IRA if you plan to but haven't yet for 2022! Click here for why you need to open a ROTH IRA.
That's the gist of it! Think I can get it all done?
