August Goals

August 13, 2015

Sharing a few achievable goals on my blog each month has been incredibly beneficial for me. I feel extra accountable to get things done when I know I will report back to my readers in this space. I don’t always get everything accomplished on my monthly list, but I’m usually able to knock out the majority of my goals, and I consider that a very good thing. You can see my BIG 2015 goals here.

Last month’s goals:

Encouragement notes to Micah and a friend
Finish Z’s baby book {I worked on it, but discovered I still need a few more photos}
Start Talitha’s baby book
Fall syllabus {This is finished now, but I did NOT get it done early as I was hoping to}
Organize Dropbox folders
Memorize Romans 8:12 {worked on it, but struggling!}
Record prayers and answers
Read a book for fun {Y’all, I am officially two months behind on reading a book monthly for fun!}
Date with Micah
Date with Zianne {I took her to the gym alone, but I need to step this up!}
Send out Talitha’s birth announcements

This month’s goals:
Encouragement notes to Micah and a friend
Date with Micah
Date with Zianne
Weekly girlfriend visit
Order pics for Z’s baby book
Talitha’s two month letter and two month update
Finish Glitter and Glue
Read Girls Like Us
Memorize Romans 8:12
Write down prayers for Micah, Zianne, and Talitha

About Jen Russum

Hi. I’m Jen Russum and this blog is where I’ve been sharing narratives of God’s grace for more than a decade now. Some might say “blogs are dead” but I’m waiting for them to come back around like mom jeans and 90s flannel. I enjoy my coffee iced, my summers hot, and my dinner parties long with lots of laughter. I process all of life’s deepest, darkest, and happiest moments by writing essays in my head. When I have the time, some of these essays get typed up and shared here. I’ve always loved to write, and I hope my words bring you joy and encouragement.
