30 Things In 30 Days - July

I made myself yet another list of things to do.  I don't take this list as seriously as I used to.  Before, when I made these lists, they were super ambitious and I would stress out if I didn't get every single item crossed off.  No more of that.  This list is simply a guideline of things I'd like to do but if I don't get everything done I know the world will not come crashing to an end.

This is what I have planned for this month:

1.          Count my blessings

2.         Bake bread

3.         Send a letter or card to someone

4.         Family Game Nite!

5.         Invite guests over for a visit or dinner

6.         Make a gift

7.         Sew or craft something

8.         Make a monthly meal plan for July

9.         Go to the $$ Store

It was definitely hit and miss on my list this month but I might do better next month.  You know the saying about best laid plans?  Well my daughter breaking her foot definitely took my focus elsewhere.  One thing is true, you have to just roll with the punches.  When a plan doesn’t work you make another one.
