You know, sometimes meal planning can seem like its not worth the time when it comes time to actually sit down and do it. But man, does it makes things so much easier as the week goes on! A busy week like last week full of extra-curricular activities & solo parenting makes a meal plan not just handy, but necessary. Having a meal plan kept us out of the drive thru line, our wallet a little fuller, and momma much less stressed!!
So I was sure to make time to chart out the week and have a meal plan ready again for the upcoming week. Here it is!
Breakfast
Waffles (made extras over the weekend!)
Eggs – Brooke requested Eggs n’ Toast in a mug EVERY day last week!
Bagels w/ Pumpkin Spice Cream Cheese
Lunch
Leftovers
Sandwiches
Salads
Dinner
Slow Cooker Meatballs Over Buttered Noodles
Zucchini Sausage Ravioli
Stew & Biscuit Bake
Grilled Cheese Night
Pizza Night

Now for my weekly goals… What can I say, I’m a work in progress.
Mail a “Thinking of You” note to a friend – I bought the cards but haven’t mailed them
Bible study 5 of 7 mornings – I don’t remember how many mornings I did this but I did get caught up on my YouVersion bible reading plans by Friday
Lunches packed at night – I did this a couple nights and I’m not sure this works the way I’d hoped. I’ll try it for a couple weeks and re-evaluate
2 blog posts & 1 YouTube video posted – Technically yes, but since one of the blog posts was also the YouTube video I’m not going to count it. So one blog & one video
Schedule social media posts the night before – I started strong at the beginning of the week and trailed off at the end :o(
Walk at least 20 minutes 3 of 5 workdays and at least 1 weekend day – I only managed one walk…I am working on setting aside time on my calendar each day
One Fit2be session each day (at least 10 minutes) – I haven’t figured out the best place to put this on my schedule
I’m going to keep these same goals for next week.
