We live in a time when we are called upon to serve in ways that we did not anticipate. None of us is perfect, but we do our best because this work is worthy of our best. We trust our instincts as we fight our daily dights. Some we will win. Some we won’t. And, some we will only know in time. But we leave each night hopeful that today’s sacrifices have been worth it, our instincts have not led us astray, and our best has been good enough.

01: Get 6 – 7 Hours of Sleep Each Night {Status: 242/259}
Since school started, this goal has been nearly impossible to reach as there is more work than hours in the day!
02: Learn Calligraphy
There are a few projects ahead of this on the list. Pause until Fall!
03: Purge 1000 items {Status: 1006/1000}
After two weekends of “cleaning out”, I have – officially – met this goal!
04: Organize the Attic
Once the temperatures cool to fall weather, we are going to start rearranging this space and adding flooring. This project might explode based on what we find up there!
05: Read 100 Books, including ALL of the DBC books. {Status: 44/100}
So many good, fun beach reads!
In Progress
(1) Atomic Habits — Complete!
(2) Ruthless Equity
(3) Start with Why
Complete:
Pleasure Reading: 41 books.
06: Try 52 New Recipes {Status: 20/52}
Tried a Taco Pie last night — interesting.
06: Get in Shape
I’m one month into my new commitment to 1% every day.
I have successfully eliminated soda from my diet.
Next stop: Processed foods, most dairy, and excess sugar. I hope I am not too grumpy or hungry during the detox period!
No excuses! I’m using my social media story for accountability to improve by 1% each day.
07: #OneMonthGoals with Michael Matera
Three years ago, I joined Michael Matera on his #OneMonthGoals journey. I ran every single day for a month – and it was glorious. This year, I am committed to selecting (and sticking with) one new goal each month, which I will document here.
January 2022: Close my Apple Rings [23/31]
February 2022: Exercise every single day! [27/28]
March 2022: New Nutrition/Exercise Program
April 2022: Still embracing a New Nutrition/Exercise Program!
May 2022: Still working on a New Nutritional Program: Plants & Fasting!
June 2022: Read every day! [30/30]
July 2022: Recommit to Peloton! [22/30]
August 2022: Cut soda [31/31]

08: Write/Send 52 notes/cards [17/52]
I need to get cracking on this goal!
09: Maintain a weekly blog [16/52]
Sometimes, I don’t have much to say so a blog update seems silly.
10: Simplify my life
I am still unplugging on Fridays! I also use Saturday and Sunday mornings to catch up on work so I can relax or socialize on weekend evenings.
11: Organize my mother’s photographs
This needs to resurface on the top of my list!
