Happy February everyone. I am so happy to hit the ground running this month because honestly January was spent playing catch up after some health issues in December but I am back better that ever and I am sooooo ready..
Here’s a couple of Changes:
While in the hospital in December I decided it was time to take blogging and the reading challenge I participate in each year to a new level. After watching some Youtube videos I decided that a bullet journal was the way to go. And actually the last day I left the hospital hubby and I stopped at a craft store and purchased one. I kew Was about to have some excessive spare time on my hands and so I began figuring it out.
The next change is a whole new way to schedule my blog content and I started my mapping out the free time I had. I think sometimes we buy into a lie that we don’t have free time (I know I did) especially with homeschooling 4 kids and a busy ministry and so on.
And then the next thing I did was look at my LONG list of blog topics and pick a to-blog list. Another big lie I told myself is that I had no content (HA!) a quick scan of my computer graphics folder and my notebook showed otherwise.
I know some of these won’t get written this month but they are the ones that are “on deck” or next.
Goals for February
- write in journal every other day- this isn’t blogging or tied to my devotions this is just a journal with writing prompts. It is solely used as practice in filling up the lines. I use it to practice descriptive language
- write at least 12 blog posts (this was the same as last month- I am close I wrote 9)
Work on blogging schedule.- Work on a Phone usage schedule- this is more difficult due to the ministry perspective but it’s coming together.
- Complete 5 books
- In His Image
Voyage of the Dawn Treader- I’d Rather Be Laughing
- The Powerful Purpose of Introverts
- S.H.A.P.E.
- Begin (again) my Philippians Study- I started it last year and became frustrated with the study method I was using so I let it go and I decided to just go back to my Bible study method I worked on and have created a hybrid version of a couple different methods. I guess I can go back to the old adage “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.”
- Finish any two notebooks (I finished a sketchbook earlier this week and I am in line to finish a journal by the end of the month)
- Craft closet- also needs some help after the holidays
- and our bathroom needs some deep cleaning after some remodeling (It’s not finished just deeds some cleaning up
- Re-implement my morning exercise routine as the medical stuff cancelled ALL of that!
And that’s it in a nutshell. I am excited because last month I was still in recover mode and I still made big progress so hopefully the month of February will follow.
How about you what are your goals for the month of February and what do you use to help you meet your goals.
