Lenten Promises 2013 Status Update #2

Second update...I'm hoping by posting these it will help keep me both accountable and focused.



1st Lenten Promise is to declutter for 15 to 30 minutes most days 
I'm not taking a stop watch to this tasks, so the status is more of a thumbs-up / thumps-down.
  • week 1 - Feb 10- 16 - Success, but a bit sloppy/slow over the weekend
  • week 2 - Feb 17 - 23 - Fairly Successful, I may try to start timing myself to help keep focus
  • week 3 - Feb 24 - Mar 2
  • week 4 - Mar 3 - 9
  • week 5 - Mar 10 - 16
  • week 6 - Mar 24 - 30

2nd Lenten Promise is to go out for at least 4 fish fries
In hindsight this is going to be harder than I thought as I look through my personal schedule.  It may end up being a bunch of lunch time take out.  
  • 1 Completed - Friday, Feb 22 with the YACC alumni at St Agnes
  • 2
  • 3
  • 4

3rd Lenten Promise is to consume no more than 2 bags of snack food per week (Sat to Fri)
  • week 1 - Feb 10- 16 - Success!
  • week 2 - Feb 17 - 23 - Success (but no exclamation point); the post-Valentines sale caramel popcorn almost caused a problem, luckily I got it under control in time
  • week 3 - Feb 24 - Mar 2
  • week 4 - Mar 3 - 9
  • week 5 - Mar 10 - 16
  • week 6 - Mar 24 - 30
