January Goals

Now that I've shared my overall goals for this year, I wanted to share some specific goals that I'm working on this month. Hopefully I will do better than last year keeping up with posting about them and being accountable to you all. :)

  • Daily quiet time in the Word & prayer
  • Fast from sugar (this includes cookies, candy, etc. but not bread or other carbs or starches such as potatoes)
  • Exercise 5-7 times a week for 20-30 minutes each time
  • Lose 5 lbs by Feb. 1st
  • Read 2 books (this month's books are A Proper Pursuit--already finished--and Reshaping It All (weight loss/fitness inspiration!)
  • Stick to our budget
  • Pay all bills on time
  • Go to bed earlier
  • Start school earlier
  • DIY project: turn all the tomatoes in my freezer into spaghetti sauce :)
  • Sewing project: a few belated Christmas gifts
So, do you all have any goals for this month? Feel free to share in the comments!

Good breakdown for the month. My first goal is to figure out what my goals should be & then write a post on my blog about them :-)
