It’s Awesome Week 8 of our 52 weeks of Awesome challenge! Aren’t you feeling all sorts of productive and on the ball?? Look back 8 weeks and reflect on the changes, things you’ve accomplished, food storage you’ve built, friendships you’ve made or strengthened, isn’t it AWESOME??!?  If you haven’t started this challenge yet or you’ve struggled with it a little it’s never too late to start!
Here’s the mini list reminder for this week, feel free to print it off or put it where you’ll remember this weeks tasks.

Now let’s look at this week in detail:

• If you’re like me, cleaning out your purse could make it weigh at least 5 lbs lighter! So for your shoulder’s sake, for your purse strap’s sake, clean it out!
• This week is a good time to organize those coupons!

• Find something you’ve been wanting to make, do, or fix for a decoration for your house and do it this week!

Set aside $5-20

• Each week set aside $5-20 depending on your financial situation.  Put the money in a safe place where you wont be tempted to dip into it.
• You should have a pretty good stash building up! Don’t let yourself dip into it! Think of the end result you want.

Biscuits & Sausage Gravy

• Each week I will give you a new recipe to try out.
• This week’s recipe will. be posted on Tuesday
• This week’s recipe for gravy works great as a freezer meal too!

Put affirmations on your mirror

• Saying positive affirmations to yourself every day is important.  It helps you be aware of your self-talk and keep it positive.
• Put your list on your mirror and every time you go to the bathroom, shower, or wash your hands read the affirmations out loud.

• Snail mail may seem out-dated, but everyone loves getting a letter in the mail from someone they love!  It will make their day!
• Bonus points if it’s to a grandparent or other family member that may be lonely!

• your food storage will be adding up!
