Week #? -- I have no idea. But I am as unresolved as ever!

Good thing I had an UnResolution about writing these weekly UnResolution posts.  I've clearly not kept this UnResolution.   But, no guilt!  Here's what I have been doing...

• ✅HEALTH- Make Good Choices

• 100% Gluten Free diet
• I have had some pretty good success here.  There are so many GF options that I am able to stick to it pretty well. There have been a few missteps and I usually regret it the next day.  Luckily, I've eaten small enough amounts to avoid the dreaded itchy stomach ache.  I call that success - if I can avoid self-defeating food choices.  Who would have thought that someone of my age and education still can't manage to make consistently good-for-me choices?! 
• Weight Watchers Noom tracking every day
• This is gone!  After over a year of plateaued WW success, I have switched to Noom and so far, am feeling great.  Noom isn't just about food, but about the psychology of eating.  Down 5 pounds and making much better choices without the guilt of not going over my "points" for the day! 
• Real exercise 3 times per week
• If painting and cleaning count as exercise, I am rocking this one!  Otherwise, not so much.  Just. Can't. Do. It.  Nike would be so disappointed in me. 
• Decrease sugar and increase water
• Yes and no. Much better sugar moderation. Lots of liquids, not as much water. So weird. When I am in a humid environment I drink gobs of water. When I am in a dry environment I don't. I am just weird. I read all these drink more water tips from friends and strangers and, yet, I just struggle to do it. My best strategy is leaving a glass by the sick and drinking a glass every time I am in the kitchen. So far, it is helping.

✅WEALTH- Prepare for the Future
Feeling pretty good here.  Spent a nice round sum updating the kitchen, but it will be returned in spades when we sell the house and I love it.  Made appropriate changes with my financial advisor.  Maybe March is a good month for a spending fast.  Maybe just trying to do one week of a spending fast is the way to go.  

• Send weekly invoices for your company
• Pay monthly tithing
• Extra payments to mortgage, HELOC, credit cards
• Increase retirement contributions
• Spending fast for 1 month each quarter

🗷WISDOM- Learn and grow
Does watching Rehab Addict count as learning?  I have learned some interesting techniques for salvaging woodwork in historic homes.  Otherwise I am totally crashing on this area.  Yet, there are 9 months left to go in the year.  Plenty of time to learn things and stuff. 

• Take a writing class
• Read 12 books 
• Practice a foreign language 
• Luminosity exercises
• Try at least one new recipe per week

✅FAMILY & FRIENDS - Be present
I feel pretty good about this area.  I have been in contact with friends and family and I think I am making progress on putting my phone down and paying attention.  Have I served like I could be?  Maybe not.   That's a good place to put my focus this month.  How can I serve others - beyond time, listening and being present?  

• Make time
• Listen
• Serve
