Goals For August


Phew!  I'm tuckered.  I may not have crossed off everything, but we got a ton of stuff done I'm quite pleased with how much we did.  Before I get the that, however, this is what I have planned for this month:

1.          Make or purchase a gift for someone
2.         Send a card or letter to someone
3.         Family Nite Out or Outing
4.         Be creative - sew or craft something
5.         Do some investment cooking
6.         Go on a hike (weather permitting)
7.         Learn to do something new
8.         Take my children out for a thrifty date
9.         Complete another small home improvement project
10.       Try a new recipe
11.        Complete a Christmas project
12.        Enjoy a Family Movie Nite or a Family Game Nite!
13.        Complete a retirement/motorhome project
14.       Donate something (or some things) to the thrift store
15.        Invite guests over for dessert, appetizers or a meal

Pretty much more of the same old, same old, but like I've said having this list really helps me stay more productive and get things done around here.  Not having a list means my productivity wanes a bit.

Refinished the last cabinet in the motorhome

Installed the countertop extension

This is how I did last month:

1.          Make or purchase a gift for someone
2.         Send a card or letter to someone
3.         Family Nite Out or Outing
4.         Be creative - sew or craft something
5.         Do some investment cooking
6.         Go on a hike too hot
7.         Learn to do something new
8.         Take my children out for a thrifty date
9.         Complete a small home improvement project lots of projects!
10.       Try a new recipe
11.        Sell some things on eBay or Craigslist sadly, no time for this project
12.        Enjoy a Family Movie Nite or a Family Game Nite!
13.        Complete a retirement/motorhome project
14.       Donate something (or some things) to the thrift store one thing set aside
15.        Invite guests over for dessert, appetizers or a meal

Completed the renovation on this storage bay on the motorhome

Completed our chicken coop renovations

I am very much looking forward to getting some more things done in August.  Progress, progress, progress.

Muffins!  For the freezer

I hope you are enjoying your summer.

    I've learned my lesson on making lists of things to do...but trying a new recipe and making donations are definitely doable...

    You always make such progress. I think having a list is key; I've got to get back to list making!
