I know that February is usually considered the most depressing month but for some reason March always kicks my butt, especially in the fitness/healthy eating department. It seems like each year I fall apart in March, give up on making it through the winter. I think it's because in this part of the world winter is still often going strong and we usually end up with one more dump of snow and one last cold snap. I also think as a teacher March is a hard month. Report cards, report cards, report cards. This year the winter has been relatively mild so I don't feel like it's dragged on and I don't' have report cards to write (though work is pretty crazy busy in March),but regardless I compiled a list of goals and things to focus on to make it through March and into spring.
1. Fitness: Clock 80 km of running and take in one exersice class a week (spin, yoga, bootcamp).
2. Get my hair done. I cheated and just got my hair done this past weekend. It wasn't exactly as I wanted it but it's way healthier than prior to going to the salon.

3. Get spring nails! Usually I get a design on my nails but this color was so pretty that I felt that it didn't really need anything more.
Love the hair and the nails and bringing clothes out of the archives to integrate into the spring stuff.
ReplyDeleteToday seems like a great day to bring out the spring stuff as the sun is shinning and it's gorgeous outside but on the other hand I think we might utilize the nice weather and maybe do the hike.
DeleteYour hair looks great! I really need to get mine cut, it's looking more than a little rough around the edges.
ReplyDeleteA pick me up for when I'm down? Usually depends why I'm down. Sometimes just getting fresh air does the trick. Sometimes I treat myself to a fancy coffee or some alone time.

Jessie, I too find solace in getting outdoors and taking in some fresh air, especially if the sun is also shinning. Thanks for stopping by.
Deleteyour hair looks fantastic!
ReplyDeletei don't find february depressing but i know a lot of people do. it's my birthday month though, and i spent the first 25 years having a summer birthday. winter in general depresses me. march starts to look up here at least.
when i'm feeling down spending time outside, reading a book or having a bath always seem to pick me up.
Happy belated birthday. I hope you treated yourself to something special. A good book and some time alone is always food for the soul. Thanks for stopping by.
DeleteI also want to go on a hike this month! Now that it's getting nicer out, I love spending more time outside. Good luck with all your goals and thanks for linking up!
ReplyDeleteThanks Gretchen! Okay, I am going to keep an eye out for a great new hike and hopefully we'll both be able to get outdoors.
DeleteYou hair looks AMAZING! And I am loving wearing some spring shades on my nails too!
