It is with great fear & trepidation that I begin this post.

Not really. But sometimes it’s nice to be dramatic. Makes life interesting.

Anyway, I made this ridiculous goal to share my monthly goals with you and a little re-cap of how I did. Here are the goals I made for January:

1. read 1 book I read & reviewed this one. And I actually read this one & this one too.
2. read for 15 minutes to kids after lunch I score a 60% on this goal.
3. continue my ‘reading through the Bible’ plan
4. ______ {this was my secret goal. & I did it!!! my goal was to take my guy out on a surprise date. here’s a little instagram evidence that it did indeed happen.
5. exercise 125 minutes/week. {I get a C- on this one. I did great for the first half of January & have been a slacker the past 2 weeks. I’m also having some random pain in my left foot that makes it painful to walk, so…that’s kind of a hindrance too. going to wait a few days & if it gets worse, I’ll probably need to see a doc or something.}
6. memorize Ephesians 1. {still working on this!}
7. read every night from 10-10:30 and go to bed by 10:45. {didn’t happen. I’ve decided that having a little guy nursing and a hubby who is studying late at night doesn’t always make for the earliest of bedtimes.}
8. spend 15 minutes/day on facebook {or less} {woot! & I told you how I did it}
9. begin & end every day in God’s Word  I give myself a 91% on this one.

And my goals for February are:

1. read Running Scared.
2. continue my Bible-in-a-year plan.
3. read 32 chapters of Little Pilgrim’s Progress to Anna Grace {chapters are small. don’t be too impressed.}
4. exercise 125 minutes each week.
5. finish memorizing Ephesians 1.
6. teach Anna Grace the first 10 catechism answers. {using this version.}
7. make two recipes for the freezer. {currently thinking of making this & this}
8. make Valentine’s cookies for our neighbors.

How about you? What’s 1 goal you have for February?
