My Monthly Goals LINK UP! - December - #friendswithgoals


It is another lovely month -- and SUCH a celebration, at that! November was a beautiful month of encouragement and hope! Let me share with you my successes and *ahem* "postponed projects"!

For those that are also doing monthly goals I'm hosting a link-up below! If you are interested in hosting or co-hosting, please email me at ifrog4fr {at} gmail.com!

My December Goals!!!
[going for 5 goals this month because I don't want December to be insane!]
1 || Give intentional gifts to family for Christmas
I want to give meaningful gifts this year, and hope that I will not get too lazy to make this happen! My Frugal Gifts that Give Back series has really inspired me!

2 || Prepare a garden space
We now have a great amount of green space that we're moving into this month! I've been looking forward to planting a garden and have figured out where to put it! I'd like to do a little series about it here on the blog and be ready for planting by January!

3 || Pack and Move with low stress
My goal is for this to be our best move yet -- being patient, organized and gracious! ... and did I say, patient?

4 || Swim at least 2x per week 
With my back hurting and my baby bump growing, I think swimming should be a big help! I hope the weather will permit me to not have excuses!
5 || Finish reading The Best Yes
I have both the book and the audio for this text and am about 1/4 of the way through right now. I love the writing style and the honest stories. I believe that this book is super relevant to me and has a lot of nuggets to apply to my life -- an unhurried life is the goal! If you haven't purchased this book --
for more details on how purchasing this book will change more than just your life, watch this video:: The Best Yes - Thank You from Proverbs 31 Ministries on Vimeo.

6 || Finish the book Cleaning House Really enjoyed listening to the remainder of this book -- I'd had a copy for about a year, so I was so glad to finish! -- I totally recommend it!
7 || Donate 2 trashbags full of items YES! Josh and I came up with a good bunch to donate!
