Five on Friday - July Goals

Today I’m recapping my June goals and listing my July goals.  As always, I’m using a Y for YES and N for NO to indicate whether or not I accomplished my goals. 



June Goals

Relationships

N  Go on a date (or two) with B.

Y  Go to dinner with my girls.

Y  Go to dinner with my Momma.

Y  Visit with my therapist.

Y  Go to my semi-annual dentist appointment.

Y  Go to my TMJ specialist.

Y  Schedule orthodontist consult for Invisalign. – They can’t see me until the end of October, but I finallyyyy got this scheduled!

Y  Find a good arms workout. – A couple of different people sent this one to me and I am loving it.  It’s only seven minutes and you don’t need any equipment, but you get the best workout!

N  Start doing yoga again.

Y  Read 3 books.

 

Family/Fun

Y  GO TO THE BEACH!!!!

Y  Spend lots of time with family and friends.

Y  Practice mindfulness and being present with the kids.

Y  Teach the kids to ride bikes. – Y’ALL, THEY ARE FINALLY RIDING BIKES!!!!  I didn’t think I’d ever be able to check this one off the list, but they’re doing it!

Y  Go swimming.

Y  Watch TV shows with the kids – We started and finished The Floor is Lava and we’re watching America’s Got Talent, too.  Lego Masters got moved to winter.  Boooo.

N  Kids get at least half of the kids’ summer homework done. – We’ve been having too much fun to even think about it.  EEK!  They are about 1/3 of the way done, though.

Y  Try making some new cocktails at home. – I tried a Mint Mule and it was yummy.  I’ll be posting the recipe soon!

Y  Record a video every single day of the month and upload to my One Second a Day app.

 

Home/Organization/Planning

Y  Take a trip to Ikea to buy bookshelves for Jacob’s bedroom (if they ever have them in stock!).

Y  Put bookshelves together (if they’re in stock).

Y  Reorganize Jacob’s bedroom (if the bookshelves are in stock).

Y  Clean off front porch. 

N  Clean out garage.

N  Schedule somebody to install ledge in laundry room, take 3.

N  Clean out closet in Brian’s office, take 3.

N  Finish listing spring clothes on Poshmark.

Y  Complete 1 task on Master To Do List. – I did 10!!  They were all small-ish house projects and Jacob’s new bookshelves were included in that list as well as Olivia’s new desk area, so I put a huge dent in this list this month!  Makes up for all of the other things I didn’t do!

 

Blog/Social Media

Y  Post 3 times per week during the summer.

Y  Share our fun summer adventures on Instagram.

  1. I would say you killed so many goals that you should be proud! Get you a date night! I really only wrote down fun goals at the beginning of the summer but I have done some productive things, too. Now is the time for my to re-assess and make the rest of my goals happen. I love that you are so intentional and you really motivate me to get stuff done!

    1. Aw, I'm so glad to know that I'm helping you get motivated. That makes me feel good! And I totally feel you on the fun summer goals!! I feel like we've been having too much fun and we haven't been doing the productive things, aside from Jacob's bedroom. It does feel good to have that done. Good luck with all of your goals! Y'all enjoy the rest of your summer!
