Welcome to the final month of summer 2021!! Time really does fly!! I have a very ambitious list for of goals and intentions for this month as my home life will be on hold for a bit during early fall.
But before we get into the current month goals, let’s review July.
JULY REVIEW
HOME
*GOODWILL RUN (DONATIONS)-FORGOT-Even though my goals list sits in front of me and I look at it most days, my eyes completely glazed over this goal.
*DECLUTTER COFFEE TABLE-DONE
*DECLUTTER BOOKSHELF-PARTIALLY DONE. I started but have not completely finished it yet.
*PACK UP ITEMS THAT MAY REMAIN-CONTINUES
*PAINT FIREPLACE-DONE
*ORDER KITCHEN LIGHT-DONE. The light also got installed but I didn’t have this as a goal when I wrote this list. So, yay!!! It’s beautiful and I love it and you’ll see the documentation of it in a future post.
CREATIVE
*ORGANIZE SCRAPBOOK CART-NOPE
*SEND OUT BIRTHDAY CARDS TO MEMBERS OF A CREATIVE GROUP THAT I BELONG TO-PARTIAL. I started out strong with this one at the beginning of the month and then got busy and allowed it to fall by the wayside.
HEALTH/FITNESS
*STEPS-7,000 X 20 DAYS-COMPLETED 20 DAYS
*EXERCISE X 16 DAYS-COMPLETED 12 DAYS
*STRENGTH TRAINING X 2 DAYS-COMPLETED 2 DAYS
*HYDRATION X 25 DAYS-COMPLETED 21 DAYS
*GET MY LABS DONE PER DOCTOR’S ORDER-DONE and I did it at the beginning of the month so that I didn’t keep procrastinating.
SPIRITUAL
*CONTINUE READING ATOMIC HABITS-MINIMUM OF 5 PAGES PER DAY-NOPE and I’ve come to the conclusion that reading non-fiction during the summer doesn’t work for me. Even though I don’t have a summer break like educators, I like to keep it light and airy during this time. I also don’t care to read heavy books during this time. This goal will move to the fall.
FINANCIAL
*WEEKLY SAVINGS TRANSFER-DONE-I have been doing the electronic transfer weekly on Saturdays and have kept it up.
*WEEKLY BUDGET REVIEW-TRACK RECEIPTS WEEKLY, ENTER BILLS PAID TWICE PER MONTH-BETTER/WORK IN PROGRESS-I didn’t keep it up weekly as planned but I did do better than I have in the past. Working on developing a better system for this one.

Like most people, I am amazed that it is already August!! In a few weeks, I will be leaving for an epic vacation adventure and most of my goals and intentions will be set aside until I return. In the meantime, I’m going to be busy getting stuff done (and having some fun)!!
