Now,
let’s see how my May goals went and then we’ll get to the new goals for June…
As
always, I’m using a Y for YES and N for NO to indicate whether or not I
accomplished my goals.

a Zoom girls’ night. – Nope.

Y Send
happy mail to friends. – Jacob and his best friend Julian have been sending
each other stuff back and forth in the mail during the quarantine, and Olivia
sent something to her friend, Becca, who moved away last December.
N Teach
the kids how to wash a car. – Never took the time to do this.
N Teach
the kids to ride bikes without training wheels. – The kids hate doing this
so we just keep putting it off. Sigh.
N Meditate
with the kids. – Totally dropped the ball on this again.
Y Kids
continue doing their own laundry.
N Life
skills refreshers for the kids – how to wash hands, brush teeth, tie shoes
properly. – Dropped the ball on this, too.
May was honestly busy despite the fact that we were quarantining, so we
just never had time since we were working so hard to wrap up our school year.
Y Read
daily devotional with kids. – We’ve been doing this daily during the week, and
I love that few minutes with the kiddos each morning reading and discussing. I’m hoping it sets them up with a solid foundation
for their own personal relationships with God.
Y Take
Olivia for her thyroid check-up.
N Olivia
have her well visit with pediatrician via video conference. – The doctor’s
office rescheduled this yet again. Sigh.
Y Reschedule
Disney trip (again). – For now, we have just canceled altogether. We hope to reschedule for March 2021, but for
now we’re just going to wait and see how things go.
Y Think
about summer camp, swim lessons, VBS, beach, and mountains just in case
things start to get back to normal. – Summer camp and VBS were canceled and
we were still debating swimming lessons in May.
Home
Y Buy
ferns for front porch.
Y Plant
flowers in pots on back porch.
Y Finish
putting down pine straw in natural areas.
Y Create
a natural area around the two trees in our back yard.
N List
summer clothes on Poshmark. – Nope.
Sigh.
Y Complete
3 things on Master To-Do list. – I rocked this, y’all! I completed 10 items on the list this month,
but I did add 1 new task, so for the sake of decreasing the list, it’s like I
did 9 tasks. To name a few, I hung
something new over our mantle, I hung a new shower curtain in our guest bath, I
hung something new over our bed, I put a small jar in the laundry room to hold
lint, I filled out the “First Day of School” pages in Olivia’s baby book, I
added a couple of new story highlights to my Instagram account, and I also did a
few other things.
Blog
Y Try to post 3 times
per week.

Whoohoo On 52 workouts! You look fabulous. Way to slay girl, bring on all the summer goodness!
ReplyDeleteI love that you meditate everyday. Taking some time for peace and quiet and making sure I do my devotional is one of my summer goals.
ReplyDeleteYou always do great with your goal lists! I need to make well visit appointments for the kids.
ReplyDeleteI think you did great. and you worked out that much?! I have been walking daily, but I haven't had many actual workouts. I can't wait to get back in the gym. I still struggle with the 64 ounces of water each day too. It has been a bit easier at home, but I don't drink as much as I should.
ReplyDeleteWow, these goals are.. well.. #goals!!! Haha! Great job, momma!!!
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear your tooth chipped again! You did great with your goals though.
ReplyDeleteThank you. This time it was so tiny that they were able to just buff it out.
DeleteHahaha, that last funny is just too good. :) I know you are already knocking out so many of your June goals...it's going to be another great month!
