Skinny Yoga Mat Straps

As you know, I am trying to raise money for my DREAM for 2014!  If you missed the post where I told the world my dream and made it legit you can read it here.

One of the ways I am trying to raise money is by selling these Skinny Yoga Mat Straps that I have crocheted myself!  They are full of love from Runner’s Luck! ;)

If you got a yoga mat for Christmas or are just looking for a fun and stylish way to carry your yoga mat to the gym or studio without it unraveling or taking up your precious hand space, these Skinny Yoga Mat Straps are the perfect thing for you!!  They are strong, durable, and washable and have just the right amount of stretch! 

The Skinny Yoga Mat Straps are $8 each which includes shipping and handling fees!! That’s a great price!! Lululemon wants anywhere from $16-$18 for their yoga mat straps!

SO… look no further because you’ve found the perfect Yoga Mat Strap for you, a friend, or a family member! These also make GREAT gifts!!  Valentine’s Day is coming up… *hint hint*

What are your goals for 2013?

What are your goals for this this month?

Goals Update: April 2013

Remember my very first post of the year?  WAYYY back in January?!  Of course you don’t … ok, for those of you who can’t even remember what you ate last night for dinner (including me)  Let’s recap.   I talked about how 2012 wasn’t the best of years especially running/staying in shape-wise and set 3 attainable goals for 2013. 

Goal #1:  Run at least 1 mile every month!
Goal #2:  Graduate in May and land at least a part time interpreting job by mid-June!
Goal #3:  Finish all the WIPs (works in progress) I have on my knitting needles/crochet hooks and make something for myself this year! :)  (currently sitting at 5 WIPs)

In my March Recap, I changed my first goal to :  Run at least 1 mile every week.

Well… I’m changing it again to “At the end of each month, average 1 mile per week AND get rid of knee pain”  This means that I don’t necessarily have to run 1 mile every week, as long as I average the 1 mile per week (or 4/5 miles a month) … certainly attainable right?  My first priority is my knee though and not mileage…

GOAL #1:  Run at least 1 mile every month week!  At the end of each month, average 1 mile per week AND get rid of knee pain

                ~By the end of April I had run at least 2 miles every week (Except the first week 
                  in January when I was sick) with a total of 69.57 miles for the year.  Which means 
                  on average I ran 4.09 miles per week.   - GOOD SO FAR

GOAL #2:  Graduate in May and land at least a part time interpreting job by mid-June!

                ~So far so good… I’m taking the last 2 classes I need and am at my last 
                  internship required.  Currently I have A’s in both classes (trying to keep it that 
                  way).  As far as the job part I am attending a job fair before graduation and have 
                  started networking through my internship.  - IN PROGRESS 

GOAL #3:  Finish all the WIPs (Works in Progress) I have on my knitting needles/crochet hooks (5 WIPS) and make something for myself this year! :)  - 4/6 COMPLETE

~Make something for myself this year “Honey Cowl” – COMPLETE 2/11/13
