Must Have Monday!

Wow, where does the time go? Seriously! I can’t believe that it’s Monday already and once again time for new Must Have’s!

This week I’ve been thinking about summer and things that I want to accomplish this summer. Honestly, I’ll never finish my list. But I hope to get a good portion of it completed! So  this weeks Must Have’s all involve three of my most important summer goals.

Blank Notebooks

Okay now, hear me out. I love to create things. Baked goods, paintings, drawings, poems, uplifting quotes… the list goes on and on. But I think you get it. Well currently I’m creating a ton of recipes and various other items. I can’t keep all of that information in my head. (Wouldn’t that be nice though?!) And who wants to type it onto your computer when your fingers are covered with flour or cookie dough? Not me! So I do it the good ol’ fashion way. Pen and paper. I picked these notebooks up at TJ Maxx for like under five bucks a piece. I love being able to look back on things I’ve written down in these notebooks 6 months ago or even last week. Write things down people! It’s important. I promise you that.

Intuitive Eating

I don’t know about you, but I’m feeling 22. No, no. Just kidding. 🙂
Anyways, I don’t know about you, but I’ve had some struggles with eating. How much is too much? How much is too little? What causes binges? Etc. All of your questions are answered in this book. Intuitive Eating really helped me figure out when I’m truly full or when I just want to eat whenever I’m bored. Honestly, life changing book right here. So you may ask how this is incorporated into my summer goals. Well as I said, I’ve struggled with my eating habits. I still have some things that I need to work on and I want to take this summer to do just that. I want to incorporate more veggies into my diet and eat more of a variety of things, not the same things every day.

Floppy Hats

Awh yeah. Who doesn’t love these hats!? I’m a huge hat person. I have so many different hats in so many different styles. It’s almost become a problem. Almost is the key word there. 😉
My one huge, huge, hugeeee summer goal is to go to the beach… a couple of times. Now I live about 7 hours from any beach whatsoever. It’s not like I can just hop in the car and be there in 20 minutes, or look out my window and see it. I’m jealous of all of you that can! But I love the beach so much. I’m drawn to it and I’m my happiest whenever I’m there. So I want to go back, multiple times. And you can’t be on a beach without a floppy hat! You have to keep that sun out of your eyes and look cute while doing it. These hats do just that. I picked these up in Ocean City, Maryland last summer for about $15 each I do believe. Quite the steal if you ask me!

So there you have it! This weeks’ Must Have: Summer Goals Edition.

Now I’m going to get outside and read a book for a little while. It’s so beautiful here today. About 80 degrees! I love it. Then later tonight my friend is cooking dinner, so I’ll be going to her house for a little. Happy Monday to you all!

Do you have any summer goals that you want to work on this year? If so, share them with me!
