Just Over Week One

It's now been just over a week since I started the 101 challenge and I am making better progress in some areas than I thought I would.

During the first weekend of the challenge, I gave myself a little pampering session when OH was out. A nice relaxing bath, making legs smooth and I treated my feet with some nice foot things I got for Christmas (this was the first time I used it). The flip flop style slippers in the pack are sooooooo comfy, I wish they were normal slippers!

OH and I have started saving for Vegas next Feb so that's now in progress. Got £40 so far! :) Been looking at what we can get the holiday for and getting some good prices.

I have learnt how to change a bulb in the back lights of my car as we thought one was out, so my Dad was showing me how to change it, but it seems to be working again, so that's one car mechanical thing I can tick off. I know it's only a light bulb but i'm actually very proud, lol.

I have contacted and/or seen both my brothers, though it was my younger brothers birthday and I was going round there to stay at the weekend while OH was away so not sure that counts, but I will count it anyway.

I have had the girls night I wanted with my girly friends at home, my first one in my own place, so I actually have the first thing I can completely cross off! Yay :) We had takeaway, watched some telly and had some girly talk, which was really nice.

I have also paid the rest if my credit card off :) I now need to start saving to pay OH the money he lent me to pay the other part of the card, bless him.

I'm not sure how well I have been keeping up with my fruit eating, to be honest I sort of forgot to count and make sure that I was doing it. The same goes for the walking every week. To be honest (again) I forgot about it. I don't think I have started doing the go to bed by 11pm once a week and get up by half 6 twice a week either, keeping forgetting that too. I have quite alot of things I am doing and want to do, I think I need to find the right balance.

I think all in all I have done ok for the amount I have done for it being over just one week. I did some things without actually realising I was working on the list. As I said though, I think I need to start finding the right balance and get more organised, which is another item on the list I can start working on :)
