Goal Planning Monday ~ Homeschool Plans

I frequently-regularly-often trip while reaching for my high ideals.  Then I giggle, or cry, and get back up.  ~Erika Harris

More often than not I cry. Not this week though. This week I played with my kids on the Wii and watched a LOT of movies. I also laughed with my family and my girlfriend who said she "needed to get in her Debbie time" before she starts back to work and doesn't have as much free time. She is starting a new job at a school as a counselor next month.

Last Monday I woke with a swollen foot. Talk about a change of plans. I went to the Dr. and they sent me to get x-rays. The x-rays showed NOTHING. They told me to rest, keep my feet up, and stay off it as much as possible.

As the title suggests my #1 goals this week are homeschool goals. We are supposed to start in 2 weeks. I may not be ready by then... it may be 3 weeks. I have a LOT to do.

Participants... It is not a requirement to comment on each others blogs but it would be nice to encourage each other. Please try and come back and check who else links up and go comment on their blog post. And comment on mine as well, we ALL could use some building up and community.

My top priorities are marked 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. Prayer will be a focus this year as that is my word for 2013. I am reading One Thousand Gifts: A Dare to Live Fully Right Where You Are by Ann Voskamp . I am done reading Praying God's Word but still have plenty of verses to read over and pray back to God. Do the study of the Book of John from Hello Mornings.  Done
2. Read through Proverbs each month in the evenings. Not Done
3. 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 - and all caught up

Homeschool Goals

1. Work on the Portfolio for last year's school. Not Done
2. Get to planning History. Not Done
3. Check with Christopher on what extra subjects he wants to do this year. Not Done
4. Get the science stuff out and start looking at it. Not Done
5. Talk to my mom about the $$ she usually gives me for school. If she is sending it, decide what I want to do with it. Done - she sent it.
6. Buy the curriculum I still need. Not Done

Fitness Goals

1. *Exercise 1-2 days 15 min each time. I hope to be feeling well enough to start back by the end of the week. I have a swollen foot and don't know why yet... I will not be exercising this week. Bummer. Not Done
2. Get my Weight Watchers dessert made... I hope. Not Done
3. Eat fruit and veggies and drink water. Done

Blog Goals    

1. Comment on everyone's blog that links up to the Goal Planning Monday linky. Done
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. Done
5. Post some good content, written by me, on my blog. Not Done

7. Work on a post about Delaware for my friend's blog. Not Done
8. Done - Post reading update for the month of June.
9. Done - Post yearly goal update for the month of June. 

Personal/Other Goals 

1. Read. Done
2. *Save files to my external drive. I really would like to get this all done this week.  Not Done -  I don't know why I said I was going to do this. My desktop computer, where everything needs to be saved from, does not have a working monitor. Hubby finally ordered the parts he needs to fix it this morning. Hopefully I will be able to work on this soon.
3. Celebrate my son's 19th birthday on Friday. Done- and enjoyed doing it.

Looking at the list of undone things I guess I did not have as productive a week as I thought. I will need to be more careful this coming week and play less Farmville.

For this week that is 12 Done, 0 Partly Done, and 12 Not Done.

2. *Get to planning History.
3. *Check with Christopher on what extra subjects he wants to do this year.
4. *Get the science stuff out and start looking at it.
5. *Buy the curriculum I want. I am going to buy The Wise Woman with Literary Analysis Journal Questions. It is a suggested resource for the Philosophy Adventures program we are doing this year. I am getting the download so it doesn't cost much. I also may buy Chemistry 101. I asked about doing a review of the dvd set. I am waiting to hear. I have plenty of other Chemistry materials to get us started so I don't have to have the dvd's before we start school.

Fitness Goals

1. Exercise 1-2 days 15 min each time. I hope to be feeling well enough to start back by the end of the week. I don't know when I should start exercising again or even what to do once my hubby allows me to do more.
   
2. *Get my Weight Watchers dessert made... MUST DO!
3. Eat fruit and veggies and drink water.

Blog Goals    

1. Comment on everyone's blog that links up to the Goal Planning Monday linky.

Personal/Other Goals 

1. Read. 

So, if you set some goals and tripped, laugh at yourself, or cry, and get back up. Set some new goals or the same ones and try again. Don't quit and you WILL achieve your goals.
