OLW June Goals

Instead of setting intentions for the year, I am setting 3 goals to accomplish each month.  Goals that will create moments.  Goals that are attainable.  Goals that are things I need to get done.  Goals that will make me a better person. 

1.  Get Bailey family photos into a book | Yeah, still didn't happen, but there were times I really thought about starting the book.  That's much better than before when it never crossed my mind.

2.  Farmers Market | Done and had a blast.  I definitely want to go again later this summer and make a day of it.

3.  Do 2 pinterest projects | I picked 2 out.  One of them needed some background information and I'm working on adding that.  As June ended, I began to think of things I wanted to work on for July. Even though I set three attainable goals each month, I've gotten into a really good habit of not completing these tasks, despite how simple some of them are.  I've also been in the habit of starting a project (i.e. buying supplies) with good intentions on working on said project and yet all the tools sit in my basement waiting for me to come around to them.

At the end of June I bought a ftibit.  For Chirstmas I got a Silhouette Cameo and waited until April to get it out of the box.  (I've wanted this machine for about a year!! How could I let it sit that long and not get used!?)  I have no idea how to use this machine with the exception on how to cut out basic words.  I've been intreged about the Letterpress class on Studio Calico and caved and bought the class bundle (class 1 and 2), but have no idea what to do with the tools.  I'm not even sure I have all the correct tools I need...  So in a nutshell, I've jumped into way too many projects at one time and the water is way over my head.  That doesn't even metion keeping up with Project Life, One Little Word, the two other photography projects I do on my own.  And then, of course, add regular everyday life into the mix.

Where does the time go!?

So at the end of June I sat down thinking the best way to get to the surface. I picked the following prompts and I had to laugh because when I opend the prompt on July first, I noticed that two of my three goals fit right in with Ali's prompt.  July is already in my favor!

-  ME | Actively use fitbit this month.  I need to get in the habit of really taking care of myself.

-  GIVE | Still thinking on what to do with this one.  I think it will be a spur of the moment thing, not something I plan out.

-  CELEBRATE | Plan family vacation.  We've been talking about this for a year and I'm happy to report it will be happening this month.

-  Learn my cameo with the Cameo Basics class through Studio Calico.  I bought this class during sale thinking it would force me to finally learn my machine.

This month I have 4 goals, just becasue the Cameo Basic class is going on this month and I want to make sure I do the July prompt.  I think July might be a really good month.  One full of many moments!
