Last week was my first week back to goal-setting after having a baby. And well, I didn’t do that great. But I did something — and I’m going to celebrate that! Because something is almost always better than nothing!
Last Week’s Goals
Personal Goals
1. Take 5 slow walks in our neighborhood. (I got in two, but hey, that’s better than none!)
2. Finish reading Stay. Read 4 more chapters of Heartfelt Discipline. Read at least 10 chapters of The Librarian of Auschwitz.
Home/Family Goals
3. Read 3 chapters of The Boy on the Wooden Box aloud to the kids. (I didn’t get any read aloud time in with the family, but I did put it on my list every night… so at least I’m remembering about it. Let’s hope this week I not only remember about it but actually do something about it!)
4. Complete 2 hours of foster care training. (We had to postpone this online training until June because our kids’ school ended up being able to have their awards ceremony and it was at the same time.)
5. Spend one-on-one time with each of the three older kids doing something they love doing.
Work/Blog Goals
6. Finish the second round of edit to my manuscript. Work on Afterword.
Word of the Year Goals
7. Have a family night and do an at-home Escape Game together. (We had every intention of doing this, but it just didn’t happen. We’re hopefully going to make it happen this coming week!)
And here are my goals for this week…
