This post was supposed to happen yesterday because I had plans for a different post today. But then a day disappeared on me somewhere between then and now and here I am on MAY 1st. Can you believe it is May already?!? Happy May Day!
I will keep this one short and sweet. (I have a busy month planned for me....er...you and it starts tomorrow!)

I make resolutions. I try to routinely check my progress.
So here is last months' rundown.
Family Read Aloud(s)-one is the goal: Silver Chair and Tales of the Kingdom
House Project(s) of the Month-one is the goal: Planted Filbert Trees given to us by some friends, made clothesline (MATT), prepared garden plot, Wallpapered bathroom (!!!)
Letter-writing: 8 total, 3 to my Opa (one letter from Corynn is in there)
Exercise: 24 times (Toward the middle of the month I started doubling up out of sheer desperation for some sort of change.)
Reading Bible: I was in the Word twice daily all month, but never just for myself. I am becoming okay with that, I think.
Drank 60 ounces of water: 20 times
Christmas Gift Made: FAIL.
Money to Car Fund: yes
Money to Savings: yes
Money toward Principle on House: Made a double payment.
Overall, it was a pretty great month!
Good-good!
ReplyDeleteWe're going to be busy??? My curiosity is up!
Sounds like you've met many of your goals, good for you! Love the pics you posted :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome Rebecca! You never fail to inspire me and I absolutely love your pics.
ReplyDeleteHope May is good to you!!!
Blessings always,
Janet
You are doing so well...I keep meaning to review my goals also...hmmm... :)
ReplyDeleteWay to go! My hubby and I always talk about making double payments on our mortgage but it NEVER happens! We really must remedy that!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to OUR busy month! :)
Your photos bug me. You are so gifted, right place, right time!
ReplyDeleteBonnie~ busy reading, that is. I have many a list written for your viewing pleasure (or DISDAIN.)
ReplyDeleteCatie~ I was hoping to do a QUADRUPLE mortgage payment this month but it didn't happen. (Tax refund and all.) Maybe next.
Rebecca~ your comment made me laugh. Thanks! (I think.) Actually, the truth is-I was sick of not having taken any 'good' pictures lately (as in---MONTHS!) so I went outside camera in hand, ready to get up close and personal with nature. When you get on the ground looking for bugs---they all of the sudden come out of the woodwork. You just need to get on your hands and knees. You don't even need to travel! ;-)
We are in the middle of Tales of the Kingdom right now with my three little ones. It is such a great book. A friend let us borrow it and I'm thinking of adding it to our home library.
ReplyDeleteKeep up the great work with your goals!!
