March comes in like a lamb...

Well, Codi & I made it through the month without fast food (Goal #38)...which was harder than I thought it would be...We're celebrating with KFC tonight as our treat for being good...We also made it the month without caffeiene (Goal #55), but since we had root beer floats one night (A&W root beer is caffiene free) and my goal says no soda, I marked down having made it 3/10 weeks, rather than 4/10...Again, harder than I thought...but I still have plenty of time to get the other 7 weeks done...

Goal #19 (Postcrossing) is going great...I'm actually really into it...So far I've sent out 5 cards, with 3 being recieved in Finland, The Netherlands, and New Jersey, and 2 more en route to Belarus & Russia, and another to be sent to Pennsylvania this week...I've also gotten 2 cards - one from the Washington D.C. area and one from Siberia...cool stuff...

Goal #14 (Pen Pal)..."Johnny" & I exchange letters about once a week...interesting to converse with someone whose background & situation is very different from my own...

Goal #12 (Movie List)...I'm over halfway through that goal, with 11 of my 20 movies watched...since the last post, I've seen "Some Like it Hot", "Jaws", "Easy Rider", "The Graduate" (which Codi, Mike & I all really liked), and "Raiders of the Lost Ark", which I watched alone but thought was really good too...

Goal #21 (Soldier)...I sent out a package full of Valentines that had been seperated from the herd during our Valentines for Military Heroes project...need to be better about sending out mail to my soldier though...

Goal #40 (Visiting Sam & Liv)...I made it to Washburn to visit the girls this past weekend...I got to ride up with Sam's mom; go out with Sam, Anthony (Liv's Dad), Adam (Anthony's roommate), & Herb (Sam's boy) on Friday night; watch Sam do a Polar Plunge Sat. morning, and celebrate Liv's 6th birthday...crazy weekend, but lots of fun!

Not sure which goals I'll be tackling this week, as I'm in the midst of figuring out a new housing situation...I do know that I've got a ticket for a Fab Four (Beatles cover band) concert next weekend, and that Codi & I have tickets for Clint Black in May (Goal #48)...but hopefully I'll be a better blogger in March than I was in February!
