That's it for me! What's on your goal list for July?
Setting standards for our own actions, words, and experiences feels a little like having some control back. I'm sorry for the resurgence of cases again and suspect we're all going t need to keep setting goals in this way of current living. Trying to stay kind and connected is a priority for me.
ReplyDeleteThose are nice goals.
ReplyDeleteI have only one goal for July. To be completely through with Mom's things, have an estate sale and get rid of the rest through donations. Then we can get her house on the market. It is a lovely home and needs to have a family in it.
We're a week into the month and I don't think I can manage to set any goals that aren't pretty much "survive" and "clean my office". I'm doing a pretty good job of that latter item!
