June goals

Dang......it's already June! 


I've always written down monthly/yearly/life goals but last month I decided to put it out there for the world to see.  By "world", I mean the whopping six people - all family - who read this blog.  :)  Click HERE to see that crazy brave post. 

To keep myself focused, here's how I did in May.....

Goal #1:  Focus on my health

I made it to half of the Monday yoga classes and about half of my Wednesday night Moms on the Run classes.  No excuses.....life just has a way of getting in the way.  Since I'm a glass-half-full kind of girl, I consider this a win!  Sure....I could've missed a band concert to get to another yoga class or ignored an on-coming migraine to walk a few extra miles.....but let's get real, that is not going to happen.  So, I'll take a pat on the back for the classes I was able to go to and try again next month. 

Goal #2:  Time management

I have to say that I enjoyed this task.  The lunches I actually spent at home (again, this didn't happen every week), I sat on the deck and enjoyed the sunshine.  I am proud to say that I did not visit Chik-fil-a or the shoe store one time this month!  It's the small victories...... :)

Goal #3:  Have fun and be creative

I put my big girl panties on and went to the all-day crop with the Maple Grove Scrapbook Club.  Good grief......I was as nervous as a cat.  Honestly, it was a little disappointing.  There was supposed to be 10-15 girls there but it was only me and one other scrapbooker.  It was a little awkward but I did it! :)  Awkward.....but productive.  I worked on the cards I'm going to add to my Etsy store next month. 

Goal #4:  Etsy store

Speaking of the Etsy store.....my goal was to create three new designs.  I'm on track to have this one done.  In fact, I'm taking it a step further and looking into becoming a "vendor" for a store downtown.  More details to come (I don't want to jinx it!).

Goal #5:  Enjoy more family time

This is the update I'm most excited about.  That birthday party I was so hell-bent on having this month?  Delanie asked that we wait until June.  Check!  That weekend in Texas I was so excited about happened and was AWESOME.  (Click HERE for those details.)  Check!  Enjoying the deck/firepit .....I'll post pictures of our first fire next week.  Check!  Done, done and done! :)

Onward and upward......hello June 2015!!

What I am NOT looking forward to this month:  Doctor appointments
 

June is the month for our annual physicals, etc.   Every year I vow to spread these out but then June comes around again and ....... yep!  It's time for checkups with the neurologist, asthma doctor and the "lady" doctor.  Yahoo.  And it's time for Delanie to check in with the orthodontist.  Thank goodness for hour-long lunch breaks.  :)

What I AM looking forward to this month:  Parades

I am stoked about Marching Band season!  During June, Delanie has several parades each week.  PLUS, the band goes on a four day retreat.  I love love love watching these parades.  I'm going to soak up every single second!

What I'm NERVOUS about this month:  Vendor applications

As soon as this is done, I'll post all the details.  All I can say right now is......YIKES!  Tons of prayers are going into this one.  It's a big step for my Etsy store and, one way or another, it will work out the way God wants it to.  Just thinking about it puts butterflies in my belly.  :)
