Tuesday night my March accomplishments were posted, it made me think about what my goals for April are! This will be a month of a very large move and adjustment to a new job, so I’m going to try to be very realistic! I’m very very excited about what this month holds and hopefully my goals reflect what’s ahead!
- Attend a donkey caring course – sooo excited about this!!
- Implement and succeed at plan sparkle!
- Pack up all my books, kitchen ware, DVD’s and anything else & place in a friend’s loft!
- House sitting for a friend
- Surprise clean my friend’s house and do all her laundry (sheets, towels etc)
- Move
- Read Numbers, Deuteronomy and Acts
- Read Animal Vegetable Miracle
- Read Middlemarch
- Set up a new budget (more on this later this week!)
- Swim 20x
- Eye Dr (to see if my eyes are the source of my headache)
- Lose 1 stone (14 pounds)
- No chocolate
- Visit one attraction in my new area
- Say goodbye to the wild ponies here (you know, because they’ll understand what I’m saying!)
- Take my mum out for a day
- Begin searching for a second job (part of a financial plan I’ll be sharing)
- Opt out of the health record scheme
- Confirm volunteering
- Contact animal shelter to apply as a volunteer – cleaning cages, walking dogs etc at the weekends in my new area!
- A blog giveaway to celebrate my 2nd anniversary blogging!
What are your plans for April?

All sounds great only to lose a stone in a month might be a bit fast for long term keeping it off. Cherrie
I agree with this. Sustainable healthy weight loss would be not more than 1 or 2 pounds a week. I’m 40 pounds down but it took me a whole year.
I plan to maybe, possibly, hopefully, meet up with a fellow real-life blogger?!
Good luck ft; I’m so please you got a job {now you want two, lol} Back up north too
You sure have a busy a month ahead of you!
I’m very curious about your new financial plan!Although I certainly understand why having an extra job would be helpful, I must admit I had never thought you would do that… I’m sure it means you have some goal in mind, and I can’t wait to see what it is!
I think your goals seem attainable and realistic.
Best of luck to you with the move and transition to new employment.
How far away will you be moving?
14 stone seems a little high to me…
lol it’s 14 pounds = 1 stone. Trying to lose 14 stone would basically mean I didn’t exist! lol
Thanks for the encouragement!! I’ll blog about my new location soon! It is very very beautiful!
Wonderful goals for April! Can you surprise clean my house for me? =P But seriously, hope you find out what’s giving all those headaches!
On the phone to the Optician as I type
My goal is to have a shed moved and expand my garden into the area the shed is sitting on now, I hope the weather cooperates.
Sorry I haven’t commented in a while, been crazy around here. That’s so exciting that you have a job and a move etc. I hope you are able to make the change relatively easy without too much chaos.
Wow, that’s quite a list – how on earth do you fit it all in???
Just out of interest how do you choose which books of the Bible to read? Do you have a list somewhere? It sounds a much better plan than reading bits and bobs all over the place and never really getting a handle on the whole story.
Happy Easter
Carolyn
enjoy your day out with your Mum
the gift of time is often the best kind
A busy month ahead! All looks fabulous though
I wish you every success (and plenty of time to rest while you do it) xx
It all looks good. Hope you achieve everything you want to.
