January Goals Update/February Goals

#3 and #9

I did okay with my January goals. 

I did read three books. (I was a little distracted with reading because I got hooked on the SERIAL broadcasts. Have you listened? So intriguing! It's about a real life murder where a young man is serving a life sentence for the death of his former girlfriend. I listened to all twelve episodes and still feel torn about his guilt or innocence. Let me know if you have listened and what you thought!)

I did NOT clean out my attic. Can you say February?

I did reconnect somewhat with a few friends. Mostly by email, text, etc. only because of my work schedule right now.

I got to spend some time with my grandchildren this month. Not near as much as I would like though….more on the *one on one* time later.

February Goals

~Clean out the attic.

~Lose four pounds.

~Read *24/6*. A book written by Matthew Sleeth, MD about keeping the sabbath holy. I just started it and I think it's going to be encouraging.

~Drink more water.

Wish me luck! Believe it or not, the hardest thing for me is the water. 

What's my deal???????????

Goals For November Update and Happy Birthday Daddy!!!

UPDATE!!!

Baby S was born so I missed devotions for a few days 
and I definitely didn't lose four pounds.
 But other than that, I did great!

And, Happy Birthday Daddy! 

You are the best dad ever!

I am a list maker.

I accomplish more when I set goals.

So, I am going to list my November goals here.

• Put up Christmas tree
• Buy all/most gifts
• NEVER skip morning devotion time
• Take Christmas card pics
• Clean all 33 windows inside and out (30 done!)
• Clean out corner cabinets in dining room
• Lose four pounds
• Bless someone with a surprise gift
• Have carpet cleaned
• Clean out toy baskets/kids table supplies
• Organize wrapping paper station
• Address Christmas Cards

I don't want to be too hard on myself if I don't get it all done.

The new grand is due the end of the month.

I will come back and update as I accomplish a task. 

ALMOST met my goals!

Can't wait to see which sister Baby S looks like!

February Goals....CHECK!

How did I do with my February goals?

NOT GOOD AT ALL.

Here goes.....

~All January pictures uploaded to Shutterfly (and Feb done too!!)...CHECK!

~Fresh fruit everyday. CHECK!


~Clean out coat closet. NOPE.


~Stay downstairs at least once a week until 9:00. CHECK! (but totally by accident.) :(


~Make/bake something to take to two people. Half Check....one person only! BOO.


~Visit at least one place in OUR STATE Magazine. NOPE.


GRRRRRR....


I have an excuse for every single one of these......but who wants to hear those?!


SOOOOO


Lame as it sounds, my March goals are to complete my February goals 


PLUS


TRY ON AND PURCHASE A SWIMSUIT.


It will take me all month to get up the nerve to do this one.


UGH.


Did any of you set goals? 
Did you meet your goals?
 Let me know!
 Let's encourage one another!

February Goals

One of my DIL's has inspired me.

She posted her goals for January and has accomplished lots of them! 

(And she just had twin boys, so I should be able to do this.)

So, here are my February goals.

~Clean out coat closet in foyer.

~Eat fresh fruit every single day. I love it. Just need to make sure I do it.

~Stay downstairs at least one night a week until 9:00 p.m. (more on this later)

~Make/Bake something and take to two people this month.

~Make sure all January pictures are put in Shutterfly.

~Visit at least one place in *Our State* Magazine.

OK. I started small, but you have to start somewhere.

I will post at the end of this month with updates.

Who is in this with me?
