ready, set, goal! - UPDATE



March was a hard month. I didn't feel like I made much progress on my goals. I actually felt like everything just stayed neutral. I didn't go forward but I didn't go backwards either. I did make some progress in a couple of areas, but for the most part it was neutral. So far in April, I'm back to making progress but feel like I'm rowing upstream. It's a challenge. I'm having a hard time juggling everything. I keep getting discouraged and distracted and tired and then I just shut down. I am determined to get back on track!! Here's to an amazing second half of April and May!!


Spiritual:
  • Gain an intimate relationship with my Savior. Still ongoing. I feel so inspired as I teach my lesson every week. I get so much insight to ways to improve myself. I love it. 
  • Spend time in the temple every month, not just go - spend time there. So far, so good. Planning April for this week/weekend to meet this goal. 
Family: 
  • Work on family history, specifically the Wells side. Went to a class but have not worked on them at all. I am dropping my indexing goals so I can focus on these sheets. Setting goal to verify all information on two every month. 
  • Write meaningful emails to my missionaries. Still progressing. 
  • Bring my missionaries home and get them settled in the next chapter of their lives. T-minus 5 weeks!! 
  • Finish 2014 yearbook, Ireland vacation book, Paris/Germany vacation book, and Italy vacation book. Started Ireland but haven't worked on it for several weeks. Goal is to finish by end of June. 
  • Write in my journal and blog weekly. Was better in Feb but crashed in Mar. Back at it in April 
Health: 
  • Keep track of my net calories every day. Completely quit doing it for about two weeks now. 
  • Move every day. Besides doing Ruthless workouts, I'm doing 7-minute workouts and starting to plan walks/bike rides now that the weather is amazing. 
  • Lose 30 pounds. Minus 9 pounds. Making progress in April.  
Financial: 
  • Pass the PMP exam
  • Pay off all credit cards and other loans. AMEX is paid off!! Going to tackle my student loan next (less than $3,000) and then K's student loan). 
  • Kickstart my retirement. Nothing yet. 
  • Become Elite with doTERRA. Still don't have a solid plan. I did an event in Jacksonville, FL and met some amazing people who are interested in the business and the oils. Will be going back next week to see if I can get them going strong. 
SCA: 
  • Learn trapunto and make largess items
    • Drawn thread towels won Baroness choice at Defender's Tourney!!! 
    • Promised Baroness Adina some calligraphy thank you cards. Need to get them done before the next business meeting. 
  • Make a lefkara veil for my Laurel. Still working on this one. Will be for the next 8 weeks or so. Learned how to do the edging so it is really up to me to finish at this point. I have so much work to do but will get it done...not sure how but it WILL happen. :) 
  • Enter Kingdom Atlantia Persona Pentathlon in 2016. 
    • Went to Kingdom Arts & Science Festival and loved it! Put up a display and got lots of compliments. I will talk to Bronwyn during Uprising and make a plan on what to do for the Pentathlon. No work to be expected to start until Aug. Just sayin'
