Let’s just start out by saying that May was a dumpster fire of a month. It was so bad that I’m not even going to recap my goals because I only accomplished one (get the dog’s hair cut). I was sick with a cold and then an ear infection, so I bombed on everything. I only read three books and worked out 10 times, both of which are much smaller numbers than the goals I had set. Then Jerry’s car died so we took a big financial hit when we had to buy a new one unexpectedly. May... I ain’t sad to see you go!
Since I did horribly on my goals for both April and May, I think it’s time to slow them down for the summer. I usually have categories for different kinds of goals, and post anywhere from 10-15 goals a month, but I want to enjoy the summer and not be so hard on myself. I’m limiting things to just a few goals right now. Here they are for June.
June 2019 Goals
- Read five books: May was a bad month, so I need to step it back up.
- Work out 15 times: ditto the above. I need to work off my cookies and I was too sick for much of May to work out or read.
- Read two chapters in either Hamilton or Game of Thrones: I bought both of these (instead of library copies) because they’re huge and will take awhile to read. GoT is for one of my book clubs and Hamilton is because I love the musical. I need to start at least one this month. Which should I start first?!
- Watch Law and Order: The Menendez Murders: I have this out from the library and need to watch it. I think it’s only six episodes or so.
- Watch at least two movies: Jerry and I love movies but haven’t been watching many lately! I’ve been watching my shows instead.
- Go out for ice cream: hopefully it will be warm enough for us to take the boys for ice cream!
- Post another From My Shelves blog: my yearly goal was to do four, and I’ve only done one so far. It was a lot of fun to do.
One messy step at a time still moves you forward.
