Last month was a mostly quiet month, and I loved it. We only had two significant events to celebrate - Mami's birthday and our wedding anniversary. I still can't believe that John and I have been married for seven years and have been together for 12 years.
This month, I'm looking forward to easing into a new schedule. Our boys will be starting remote learning soon. Hopefully, everything goes well. I'm also looking forward to seeing hints of fall. I can't wait for cooler weather and all things Autumn.
Well, let's recap on my goals for July and check out my new goals for August.
Recap of July Goals
- Read five books: I read so much last month! I read over 30 books. Some of them were novellas, so I was able to read multiple books in a day. Some of the books were so good that I stayed up way too late to finish them.
- Work in my journal: I'm not sure whether to call this a pass or a fail. I definitely didn't work in my journal as much as I'd like, but at least I did.
- Publish one personal piece for the blog: This was a fail. Once again, I didn't publish a personal essay. Last month, I didn't really blog. I think I mainly published my weekly Happy List.
- Continue to work on my e-courses: This was a pass. I haven't completed the courses, but I did work on them. I'm enjoying taking my time with my assignments.
- Drink more water: This was a fail. Sure I did drink water, but not nearly enough. I really have to do better.
- Take more photographs: This was a pass. I took lots of pictures, but I really want to take a lot more. I think I may try another photo challenge.
- Exercise 3 days a week: This was a fail. I really have to get it together. I don't even have an excuse for not doing this.

This is a great list of goals! And way to go on overachieving your reading goal of five books a month :-) I’ve been trying to do a bit more of that myself lately but I always fall asleep towards the end of the night LOL. I’m also hoping to continue cooking a little bit more, at least I know what we eat is a little more healthy than if we do takeout all the time. Also I know exactly what you mean in terms of time going by quickly and slowly simultaneously. What strange times we’re living in. Hope you are staying safe!
ReplyDeleteI think you did a good job in July, and look at you reading like crazy! That's awesome. I hope you have a wonderful August and that remote learning goes well for the boys.
