Goal Planning Monday ~ Week 35


It's Monday again!!
(well it was Monday when I started this but I forgot to post it yesterday)
Time to write some goals and strive to accomplish them this coming week??

Join us by clicking on the button above...
after you read my goals.

This was a good week as far as goals go.

My Goals from last week and how I did:
Spiritual Goals 
  1. Keep up with Reading the Bible in a Year. Done Yeah, I kept up and am not behind! Reading Zachariah today thru Thurs. then Friday Malachi. Next week starts the New Testament.
  2. Read Power of a Praying Wife and leave hubby a note for each chapter I read. He needs the extra prayers and encouragement. Not Done I meant to but the week got away from me.
Homeschool Goals
  1. Keep homeschooling and do even better this week. Make sure the boys do all 12 workboxes every day or not computer time. Done 
  2. Work on Portfolios. Done I did not get the Portfolios finished but made significant progress. I found that the pages I made to divide the subjects were made with the topics we are covering this year, not last, so I have had to make new subject pages. This is consuming a lot more time than I thought it would take me. But at least I am almost halfway done. I also have the subject pages for this year already to go, since I made that mistake, and I can assemble the portfolios as we go through the year. Hopefully that means I won't still be working on the portfolios from this year while doing next year's school. I have one more set of subject pages to make for History, then I have to sort and decide what things of Nathan's to put in the portfolio. Hopefully I will get this complete this week. It is my #1 priority.
  3. If I have time I also want to work on planning History. We are done with Mystery of History 3 and I need to keep ahead on the planning.  Not Done
Health and Fitness Goals  
  1. Get back to exercising, 3 times this week hopefully or maybe even 4. Partly Done I exercised 2 times. I will make time to exercise more this week.
  2. Drink water 3-4 of my white and pink 16oz. cups full. Not Done
  3. Get back to eating more healthy. Not Done

Blog Goals
  1. Get my Blast From The Past post done and scheduled so it posts first thing tomorrow morning. Come back and see my family photos and link up. Not Done Oops! I planned to do this and just forgot. Nobody seemed to mind though and Kympossible did not leave me a message that she was missing the linky...hopefully I will do better this week. I will try and get the post done today and scheduled to post in the morning.
  2. Work on and get posted one of the posts I have in the works that is not a meme. Not Done
  3. Post at least 3 more times this week, not counting this post but including the goals 1 and 2.  Not Done

Personal/Other Goals 
  1. Comment on all the other GPM ladies posts. Keep track of their names with links here so I know whose I have done. Partly Done I commented on Katrina's post (our hostess) @ Mama Manuscripts I forgot to go back and comment on the other ladies posts.
  2. Read, Read, Read!  I am making progress on my read 100 books in a year goal but I still need to read a bunch more. I am currently reading  Toward the Sunrise (Daughters of Fortune, Book 3) book by Judith Pella. I need to get it read before it is due back at the library. Done I read more of Toward the Sunrise but have a lot more to read.
  3. One on One time with Nathan. Not Done

Well that is 4 Done, 2 Partly Done, and 8 Not Done. As I said I feel good about last week's progress on my goals even though I have more Not Done than Done. Some things I worked on took a lot more time than I thought they would.

  1. I need to put exercising on my list too. I am just not quite ready to commit- maybe next week!

    Have fun with your friend. That is another thing I need to get on my list, but have not yet figured out a way to make it happen.

  2. I'm liking all the reading that you have highlighted this week. What kind of books do you enjoy reading aloud with your boys? I've gotten out of that habit and need some motivation to start again. I find it hard to figure out a good time to do so with a toddler that really wants the books!

    I hope you have a great week. I hope that you enjoyed your visit with your friend today!
