I’m looking forward to making Christmas cookies and monkey bread this week. 🙂

I think I’m most excited about the monkey bread! I haven’t made it in years, and while the recipe is kind of time-consuming, the end result is worth the effort.

As for my goals, I crossed all of them off my list.

Here’s what I accomplished:

Family/Mothering Goals:

1. Continue to work on memorizing two verses of scripture as a family

2. Go see Christmas lights — There are two places in our area that put on great displays.

Personal Goals:

3. Do resistance band exercises 4x

4. Walk a total of 120 minutes on the treadmill

5. Read 10 pages of The Lord of the Rings (Part One) The Fellowship of the Ring by J.R.R. Tolkien

What are your goals for this week?

I crossed off all but two of my goals last week. 🙂

Here’s what I accomplished:

Family/Mothering Goals:

1. Continue to work on memorizing two verses of scripture as a family

2. Schedule fun holiday events we normally partake in this time of year on the calendar

Personal Goals:

3. Do resistance band exercises 4x

4. Walk a total of 120 minutes on the treadmill

5. Read 10 pages of The Lord of the Rings (Part One) The Fellowship of the Ring by J.R.R. Tolkien — I got about 3 pages into my reading when I discovered a tiny little bug in my book. And that was it. I was done. And grossed out. And starting to feel itchy. So my book went into a big plastic bag and into the freezer. It’s still there.

6. Journal 2x

Home Management Goals:

7. Schedule the kids’ homeschool “Christmas vacation” days on the calendar

8. Fill one bag with items to donate — I pulled out a bag to fill and never put anything in it because I waited too long. Then I decided to forget it and go to bed. I’ll try again this week. 🙂

Business Goals:

9. Shoot, edit, & upload at least one new video to our family YouTube channel

10. Delete files, etc… on my computer to free up more space — These files were backed up over the weekend, and now I need to get them off my laptop.

Here are my goals for this week:

Family/Mothering Goals:

1. Continue to work on memorizing two verses of scripture as a family

2. Celebrate David’s 2nd “Transplant Birthday!” — We’re going to put up Minecraft decorations, have special meals, eat cake and ice cream, open gifts — everything. Why? Because it’s a big deal. My son is alive — because of the kindness of God and the selfless gift of his donor. So we’re celebrating! 🙂

Personal Goals:

3. Do resistance band exercises 4x

4. Walk a total of 120 minutes on the treadmill

5. Read 10 pages of The Lord of the Rings (Part One) The Fellowship of the Ring by J.R.R. Tolkien — I’m planning on pulling my book out of the freezer at some point this week. That bug (and any friends he might’ve had) should be dead by now, right?
