Only an ok week. Not as much accomplished as I had hoped.

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 read Desiring God: Meditations of a Christian Hedonist by John Piper. And, I will be starting to read Praying God's Word: Breaking Free from Spiritual Strongholds by Beth Moore and I have the journal as well Praying God's Word: Devotional Journal. I love Beth Moore studies. I am looking forward to this. Hubby bought both of these for me recently... just because. Done - not daily but done.
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 - I did a LOT of catching up on the Joy Dare this week.

Homeschool Goals

1. Keep up with planning and ordering materials for school. Done - the books I ordered for The French Revolution came in at the library. Christopher is looking forward to reading 2 more Henty books... In the Reign of Terror and then No Surrender.
   
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. I hope to finish this this week... at least until finishing things up during the summer. Not Done

Blog Goals   

1. Comment on the ladies blogs that link up to Goal Planning Monday. Done - our hostess did not do a post for us to link up to... however I found Kym's post @ Homeschool Coffee Break at Cristi @ Through the Calm and Through the Storm  and at Karen @ The Fruit of Her Hands

Personal/Other Goals

1. Write my weekly goals down on paper, add some details I want for me.
