I recently posted my goals for 2012, but I’m going to change my plans. I’m going to focus on some smaller, monthly goals instead.
My January goals were:
- To get up 30 minutes before the G as part of Inspired to Action’s #hellomornings challege. (Well, I got up earlier. He’s just gotten up earlier too.
So this was actually a bad goal because I couldn’t control it completely.) - Take a daily walk with the kids, weather permitting (yes, with the other exception of health permitting as well. There was a rough week and a half in there that didn’t allow for walking.)
- Move the rest of our belongings, pending the sale of our home. Substitute goal if the sale doesn’t go through: Deal with the paper explosion upstairs. File, shred, recycle. (No substitute goal needed. The sale is still on to close this week, and the house is empty. Woo-hoo!)
January reading goals:
- Close Enough to Hear God Breathe(Read and reviewed)
- Don’t Make Me Count to Three(Read)
- Simple Blogging(In progress; taking time to think about each chapter as I finish them)
- Moonwalking with Einstein (Read)
February Goals
Personal Goals:
- Be in bed by 11:00. As in, lights off, head on the pillow, eyes closed. Hopefully this will help me continue on with my HelloMornings challenge, and this is controllable by me in a way that getting up 30 minutes before the boy is not.
- Taxes ready to be filed. And then wait 48 hours to file them in hopes of avoiding the mistakes I’ve made the past years.
- Guest room put back into working order.
- Basement shelving put up and items unpacked onto it.
(Four because those last two are both pretty easy)
Reading Goals:
- Loving the Little Years: Motherhood in the Trenches
- Prayer: Does It Make Any Difference?
- A Million Miles in a Thousand Years: How I Learned to Live a Better Story
- The 100 Thing Challenge: How I Got Rid of Almost Everything, Remade My Life, and Regained My Soul
