So I’m rocking this goal. My willpower has held out 19 days, and I’m not going to lie. I’m going to buy some cupcakes tomorrow, but those are my only exception, and I’m limiting myself to one per week. If you’re looking for a suggestion, the Red Velvet ones are the best.

How I did it: I tried the gym here out, and I liked it enough to get a membership. It was a pretty spendy enrollment fee, but I did get $20 off at my gym for signing up before my trial period was over. It was a decent incentive. Now we'll see if I can stick with it. Read how I did it…
Haha, this one is actually pretty funny. So I’m still holding strong on not using a to go cup all year, but I’ve bought coffee for some friends, and I’ve left with a quandry. Do I get them a “to go” cup, or do I figure something else out. One day I just grabbed a tumbler on my way out of my house for them, and on another day I just bought a really good friend of mine a tumbler. I can’t afford to do much more of that, though. I need to work on a new plan.
My goal is to win an award at this tournament in June. I’ve got some great ideas for my display board, and hopefully my individual models will get there for me. I’ve won a lot of appearance awards at local tournaments, and a team appearance award at a major tournament. This next one, I want it all myself! Bwahahaha!
