This was a VERY good week. I am happy with the amount of things I got done. I made a lot of progress. My mother is going to be visiting this week. That will makes things a little different. Spending time with her will be a priority. She is 90 years old and we will have a lot to do to care for and entertain her this week.

I also have a Dentist appointment today and hope to get some problems taken care of before the week is over... but I may have to wait. The x-ray and exam is today and the dentist will let me know where we go from there. Hopefully the cavity can just be filled later this week and nothing worse will need to be done... really praying the tooth will not have to be pulled.

I am now marking my top priorities with a *

My goals for this coming week:

Spiritual Goals   

1. *Morning Devotions - including Bible reading, prayer, listening to music and reading a spiritual book. Read through Proverbs each month. Prayer will be a focus this year as that is my word for 2013. I am currently reading Desiring God: Meditations of a Christian Hedonist by John Piper. Done - Not every day but I did do it. 
2. Participate in the Joy Dare in 2013. Writing down 3 things each day that are gifts from God, things to be thankful for totaling more than 1000 gifts in 2013. Done

Homeschool Goals

1. Keep up with planning and ordering materials for school. Done
2. Be consistent with reviewing Christopher's daily work and logging it in. Done
3. *Check Christopher's hours for his school subjects so I know how much he has done, how much he still needs to do in the next 65 days or so of school. This, besides my devotions and reading, is my TOP priority this week. Done - I made a LOT of progress here... I will definitely be done this early this week... maybe even later today.

Blog Goals   

1. Comment on the ladies blogs that link up to Goal Planning Monday. Not Done - sorry ladies. I hate it when I don't comment. Gotta do this earlier this week... Tomorrow, Wednesday at the latest.
2. Post reminder and future themes for Think Back Thursday on Wed. Done
3. Post Think Back Thursday. Done
4. Comment on each person's post that links up for Think Back Thursday. Not Done - I will do this later today.
5. Post a meme or 2 I like to participate in. Done

Personal/Other Goals

1. Write my weekly goals down on paper, add some details I want for me. Done
2. *Read, Read, Read - I really need to do better. Goodreads says I am more behind now. I hope to finish 2 books this week... and every week until I catch up. 
   
• I hope to finish Light and the Glory. Partly Done - I read half of what I had left to read. I hope to finish the book today.
• I hope to finish The Memory Jar. Done - I finished this! Yeah!
  

For this week that is  10 Done, 1 Partly Done, and 2 Not Done.
