July Goals

I know July is now halfway over and I’m just now getting around to posting my monthly goals. This doesn’t mean I haven’t been working on my goals… it just means I never got a chance to publish them. I am sharing them now in hopes that public accountability helps me finish off the list in the next few weeks.

Exchange Bebe Pod {warranty}. Done! Zianne has graduated to a high chair and we have a brand new Bebe Pod in the garage waiting to be pulled out of the box for Baby #2 someday in the future. I cannot recommend this chair enough {much better than the Bumbo!} and Prince Lionheart has great customer service!

Rollover 401K. Ugh… still not done. I feel like this task will haunt me forever!

Study ten hours a week. Yes. This has gone fairly well. Although I should probably spend even more time reading for my exams, I’ve fallen into a rhythm that feels healthy and sustainable for Zianne and me.

Print large family photo. Done… and my two large frames are actually hanging on the wall!

Read two books… Bam! I finished Gone Girl and Eleanor and Park, and I’m now back on track with my one book per month goal.

Write one note of encouragement… Check!

Open a savings account for Zianne…

Rollover 401K… Come on, Jen, you can do it!

Start HSA wellness activities… We get money added to our HSA account if I do certain activities such as fill out a health questionnaire and do a wellness coaching phone call. Busy work that’s worth it.

Finish fall syllabus… My syllabus for my fall classes is due in mid-August but what if I worked ahead for once and finished it this month?

Print photos for Zianne’s baby book… I am so far behind on this and I would like to have the book finished for her 1st birthday which is only about two months away!

Get watch batteries fixed… I am a watch girl. I have about five watches that I love. They are the perfect mix of practical and pretty for someone who doesn’t like to wear many accessories. However, last summer and fall when I was hugely pregnant and then working from home in my postpartum state, I went months without wearing my watches. When I started working on campus again this spring, I realized that the batteries on almost all my watches had died. I want them functioning again before classes start next month. {Some of my favorite watches… 1 // 2 // 3 // 4}
