May Goals

I started sharing my goals last month and to be completely honest, I forgot about some of them until I did my recap blog.  This month I'm going to try to write them down and keep them somewhere I will see them frequently, like the fridge or our bedroom mirror.

HOME:

- I'd like to continue working on our living room.  We have an old recliner that needs to go to the dump (Matt seems to be very attached to it, and I think that's why he hasn't managed to get it there yet).  We also may need to purchase a new recliner.  (We inherited a newer recliner, but it's not as big as the one we need to get rid of and Matt doesn't like it as well)

- Get the old couch out of the garage (donate to Chattanooga Furniture Bank).  This should be EASY.  The furniture bank will pick it up, I just need to schedule the pick up.  And considering how many people lost their homes I know someone needs it more than we need it sitting in our garage.

Truthfully there are SO many things I want to do with our house, but I just want to get the living room fixed up first.


MARRIAGE:

- I'm recycling this goal from last month.  Try to do at least one new thing with Matt.  Maybe at this point I should just put "FIND new thing to do with Matt" and mabye eventually we'll actually do it!

- Date night?  This one might be hard to fit in this month.  We've got Mother's Day, my birthday, and Memorial Day all this month and those tend to be very friend and family heavy occassions, so there may not be a whole lot of "us" time.  I also think date night is going to have to at least start out on the weekends because we both tend to not want to do anything after work.

- Daily Guidepost.  My Nana bought us a Guidepost book for Christmas, and we wanted to try to read it together, since we rarely get to go to church (he works every Sunday).  We're WAY behind though, and I'd like to catch up.  I really feel they help us put things in perspective and realize what GOD wants for us instead of what WE want for us.


MISC:

I'm not really sure I have any of these this month.  I know I'll be seeing my friends fairly often this month, as Alex and I both have birthdays.  If I think of anything, I'll add it later!

Here's hoping this month goes a little better than last month!
