  • Continue running or biking six times a week. No excuses. I can't say I did this enough. Usually around 4 times a week, but I slacked here and there. But I am back into my routine, despite it being hot, hot, hot! 
  • Cut back on snacking (darn you Flavor Blasted Goldfish!) in order to make the above worthwhile. Of all the things on my list, this is what I probably did best on! Dessert reduction, not so much.
  • Finish reading Crazy Love, The Irresistible Revolution, and one or two stories out of my C.S. Lewis Complete Works. (This should be incredibly attainable!) Finished the first two (both incredibly good!) but didn't get a chance to start the third. Maybe a beach book?
  • Continue reading a gospel and Psalm every day, as well as journaling. Did OK, definitely need to spend more time with this, especially for the past week. Always going to be on my list!
  • Become less anxious about situations I cannot control, bah. I don't think I can really cross this off, but the main thing that I was anxious about has been solved after much prayer, so for now, it's over!
  • Complete (3) craft projects I have pinned on PinterestThis is a terrible, terrible failure. I did one ten minute craft project this month, that's ALL. I (hopefully) will be in full craft gear this month.
  • In addition to the above, continue learning how to work with my sewing machine. See above.
  • Learn more about my camera and how to use it, possibly buy the 50mm before we head for Destin. Played around in the garden, but decided to wait to buy the nifty fifty. Em and Aaron have on that they will bring to the beach, so I will wait to buy one for myself, methinks.
  • Write better and sillier letters to Hayden each week. My letters are probably going to get boring! I suppose only Hayden can answer this, but I did have some good news in my letters, some silly drawings, and a few ideas for summer adventures.
  • Continue praying about next summer and the possibility of {this}. I have been praying about my direction for the next summer, as well as this upcoming year. This won't be done until I know what I am doing, but continual prayers are definitely in order.

So there is my monthly goal update. I didn't do too well this month, but hopefully my next monthly goal list will be more complete. Tune in tomorrow and I will have my goal list for July. I hope everyone had a fun Fourth of July!
