May Goals Recap

Towards the end of the month, May was flying by at warp speed! Here's how I did with my goals

Financial:

• Sort out cash flow & remaining 2024 budget, post severance numbers - I've received my severance, and while it's taking quite a few days to clear a bank transfer, I'm very close to having everything put away in the correct accounts. We have the boys college funded, and are saving some additional funds for a potential bathroom remodel.
• Earn $300 in side hustle - $337, thanks to selling our patio set, and a bunch of smaller items. 
• Pantry/freezer challenge: use up fish sticks, pureed bananas & the rest of a bag of cranberries - I used some of the fish sticks, and 1/2 a bag of cranberries. 
• Figure out how to maximize expiring travel rewards - I made good progress with one of the United credits (expiring soonest), & was able to extend the expiration of another travel voucher. 

Family:

• Get Sam registered for orientation & finalize housing contract - done & done!
• Help Nick with college tasks & finalize work back schedule -I've done some early planning with Nick, but the majority of this work will take place this summer, and now we're ready to go for that. 
• AP test prep (both) & SAT prep (Nick) - all AP tests are done, & SAT for May is complete!
• Have a great & on budget trip to Sedona with my mom - Yes!
• Finalize the rest of our summer plans - mostly done, although we are still working on a few things.
• Plan one fun activity with the boys - We played corn hole, and had a family chess game after dinner. 

Fitness:

• 10 stretching workouts - 10/10
• Lose 3 lbs - 1/3 lost
• 12 strength training workouts - 17/12
• Follow the No S diet - It was a real mixed month for the no snacking portion of this diet, and I'm looking forward to a more consistent June.
• Run 70 miles - 79/70 miles!

Personal:

• Get together with friends - met a friend for a very early hike, and another friend for a workout & coffee
• Practice Farsi 20 times - 26/20
• Declutter 100 items from the house - 116/100
• Meditate daily - mostly on track, with a ~80% success rate or so
• Continue exploring various jobs - I'm working on some training for a volunteer role I'm pretty excited about!
• Finish soccer volunteering project - Done!
• Read blog on building a life without work - yes, done
