How was your week?  I did very poorly getting up and being motivated to start my day — probably because I was staying up until midnight or later!  I am setting a new goal to help me in that area this week.  My days go much better if I get up and get started before the girls!

Last Week’s Goals:

Faith/Ministry:
Complete Crown Financial Study on a daily basis.
Take the girls shopping for canned goods/pantry items for church.  (Partially accomplished…we went shopping in our own pantry!)

Marriage:
Have a date this week.  (Yay!  Lunch date!)

Mothering/Discipleship/School:
Finish reading Anne of Green Gables. (I cried…)
Write in our “Gratitude Journal” every day. (We ended up just writing in it for three days)
Complete five Intentional Act of Kindness throughout the week.

Homemaking & Personal:
Catch up on laundry (I only did 2 loads last week!).  (The only reason this happened was because of my sweet husband!)
Order photobooks.
Complete Week 2 of Insanity.
Read Grace for the Good Girl:  Letting Go of the Try-Hard Life.  (Still working on it — I made it through 4 chapters!)

Blogging:
Finish Christmas craft printable booklet. (Still working on the intro and ending.)

New Weekly Goals:

Faith/Ministry:
Complete Crown Financial Study on a daily basis.
Decorate the church for Christmas.

Mothering/Discipleship/School:
Make some simple Thanksgiving crafts.
Write in our “Gratitude Journal” every day.
Read Ginger Plowman’s [easyazon-link asin=”0972304649″]Don’t Make Me Count to Three[/easyazon-link] (This looks like a really great book for “heart-oriented discipline”)

Homemaking & Personal:
Get up by 6 AM every morning.
Complete Week 3 of Insanity.
Read Grace for the Good Girl:  Letting Go of the Try-Hard Life.

Blogging:
Finish Christmas craft printable booklet.
Set aside time/find help to share deals for Black Friday and Cyber Monday!!

What are some of your goals for this week?  I’d love to encourage you!
