The Sensible Mom

Thanks to my husband’s help on our YouTube channel last week, I was able to cross off all of my goals. 🙂

Here’s what I accomplished:

Family/Mothering Goals:

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

2. Read to my children 5x

Personal Goals:

3. Do resistance band exercises 4x

4. Walk a total of 150 minutes on the treadmill — I’m increasing this goal because I’ve already logged 130 minutes, and it’s early in the week! However, I’m not going crazy with my goal increase, because this week we’re going to Medieval Times, a Make-A-Wish event, and an appointment with David’s transplant doctor in Chicago, and I know I won’t be able to fit in a whole lot of exercise. Food? Yes. Exercise? Not so much. 😉

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

6. Journal 2x

Home Management Goals:

7. Fill one bag with items to donate — It’s getting harder and harder to fill a garbage bag with stuff every week. I think I’ll keep this goal for one more week and then take a break for a month or so.

8. Deep clean bathrooms

Business Goals:

9. Shoot, edit, & upload two videos to our family YouTube channel  — My husband did most of the work on our channel last week, and I appreciate that. He edits and creates videos differently than I do, but I think we complement each other and offer kids a good mix on our channel. 🙂

10. Shoot, edit, & upload two family vlogs

Here are my goals for this week:

Home Management Goals:

7. Fill one bag with items to donate

8. Take inventory of what some of us need for an overnight stay at KeyLime Cove later this month and then shop for those items

Business Goals:

9. Shoot, edit, & upload three videos to our family YouTube channel and apply Disney themed Jamberry Nails because my nails need a break from regular polish

10. Shoot, edit, & upload two family vlogs

What are your goals for this week?

I didn’t get everything done that I’d hoped to, but I did an okay job on 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. Read to my children 5x

Personal Goals:

3. Do resistance band exercises 4x

4. Walk a total of 130 minutes on the treadmill — I’m increasing this goal, because I’ve already logged 50 minutes this week and know I can do a lot more. Plus, it’s been rainy and the kids are spending more time inside, which means I have more time to hop 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

6. Journal 2x

Home Management Goals:

7. Fill one bag with items to donate

8. Deep clean bathrooms — I gave one of the bathrooms a good surface cleaning, but deep cleaning didn’t happen last week.

Business Goals:

9. Shoot, edit, & upload three videos to our family YouTube channel — We uploaded two videos and intended to get the third video filmed over the weekend, but that didn’t happen. We’d planned on working on another Play-Doh surprise egg video, but it was cloudy and dark outside on Saturday. And we try to avoid filming longer videos when we have overcast skies.
