I was able to cross everything off last week’s goals list!
One handy little tool that’s been helping me stay on task (alongside my calendar) is the Habit Streak Pro app. I had installed the free version of the Habit Streak app on my phone and was using that until I realized that I couldn’t add more than 5 tasks to work on at a time.
I don’t remember exactly how much the upgrade was (a few dollars…), but it was WELL WORTH IT! ๐
The app has been such a blessing in my own life that I decided to install the free version on two of the tablets that Nathan and Breanna (my older kids) use, and they’ve been working on five areas in their lives every day, too.
I wish I’d known about the Habit Streak app sooner, but I’m thankful to be using it now.

Erin @ My Mommy World says
Great job on your goals last week! Looks like I might need to get that app to help me stay on track….I spend too much time being distracted by Facebook, Pinterest, etc.
Hope you have a good and productive week ๐
Sandra says
Thanks, Erin! I love the Habit Streak Pro app and will be using it for a LONG time to come! Since I’ve started using it, my mornings are smoother and at the end of the day, I feel like I’m becoming more like the mom I want to be, because I have things like “read to the kids” and “pray with the kids” on my list. And since I do, I’ve done those things on a near daily basis since I added them. The only time I broke my streak was when we were out of town at KeyLime Cove.
Shelly says
You did so good on your goals last week. Way to go, Sandra! I really need to clean up the files on my computer. I had so many folders on the desktop right now. I hope this week goes well for you.
Sandra says
Thanks, Shelly! And, yes, I can relate to having a lot of folders on the desktop. ๐ I try to backup and clean things up on my laptop about once a month…around the time that my computer starts running slower than it normally does. LOL
Lydia @ Not Afraid of the Snow says
How awesome that you found an app that has helped you stay on task! I am sure that it was worth your money! Just think what it helped you do in a week! Hope this next week is just as successful!
Sandra says
Thanks, Lydia! The app has been such a blessing in my life. It helps me to stay focused and remember things I want to be doing/working on every single day. ๐
