Goals

Hmm...I was thinking that more than half of 2007 is over. Hard to believe. Then I was wondering how well I was doing on my goals for this year. Here are the goals I wrote in January.

1. I will read my Bible 5 times a week
2. I will schedule a date night with the love of my life every other month
3. I will drink 32oz of water before I am allowed to drink any soda
4. I will do one load of laundry a day from start to finish (wash, dry, fold AND put away)
5. I will exercise 2 times a week
6. I will have school time with my kids 3 times a week.

Ok, so I really have not done any of these to my shame. Well, I been doing much better on my devotions in the last two weeks.
I had our first date night in six months 2.5 weeks ago.
I am hardly drinking any water at all :(
Laundry...well, I am not doing complete loads a day. But I am doing much better keeping up with the volume of laundry.
I have not exercised in forever. It has been so very hot here that we haven't had a chance to do any exercise as a family like walking and biking. Am I making excuses here?
We do school quite often even if it is just flashcards or reading.

Any suggestions?

How are you doing on your goals??

Well...I don't even remember if I made any at all. If I did...I must not be keeping them.

Well Monica... I think I remembered my sister's birthday-- and that was because it happened to be in January! Uggh! This is a great time of year to set (or reset) our goals. I feel like making goals in the fall just because it feels like the beginning of a new year more than the actual New Year does!

Wow...this might be the longest you've ever gone without updating.
