Goals for the Week

Here's an update - I got more done this week than I did the week before.
Last Week:

Faith 
continue the book I'm reading/working through - Days of Deepening Friendship by Vinita Hampton Wright  ongoing.

read Letting God Come Close - An Approach to the Ignatian Spiritual Exercises by William Barry (You may be wondering....no, I'm not Catholic...I just happen to be doing this self-guided study of St. Ignatius and his teachings.  I have already read one of Fr. Barry's books and it was really helpful! )  ongoing

set aside 15 minutes at the beginning of each day for prayer and bible reading   Three days this week...

Family
complete a week's worth of school with Daughter

try cinnamon popcorn recipe

make sure Husband gets some alone/down/quiet time

Home
begin a menu/recipe binder - set up categories and add the recipes I have for healthy breakfasts

continue to process apples

shred and freeze zucchini...or zucchini bread

House

dust ceiling fans, tops of doors, high shelves

Garden
plant rose bush

check carrots, dig them if they're ready I picked some, and will finish picking them this week...which will give me the space I need to plant the rose bush.

monitor spinach, tomatoes, zucchini and pumpkins  we had a frost, so I'm down to just checking zucchini

Personal/Health
32 or more ounces of water per day  Ha!  I thought this was 64 or more, so that's how much I drank each day.

make/eat lunch salads for the week - 4 days, since I already know we've got lunch plans Friday
repeating this one for 4 days again this week

exercise 5 days - total of 5 miles walking/treadmill
I did it!  I'm bumping myself up to 6 miles/5 days this week.

DIY
work on emptying, sweeping, cleaning and vacuuming the garage so we can seal the concrete We got everything prepped and we already have the first coat of sealer down.
