Monthly Goals

February 1, 2015 By Thaleia 8 Comments

Shop now at Columbia.com!

I cannot believe how quickly January went by. I was very excited by all the possibilities for many different blog hops, reviews, and giveaways. I hope you have enjoyed some of those things along the way with me. I also made some goals for 2015 which I plan to work on each month. Please continue to follow along with me each month to see how much I accomplish and what new goals I set.

Here’s some highlights from January’s posts:

ABC’s of American History hosted by your truly

A to Z STEM with my H is for Heart Rate post

A to Z Gross Motor with my Y is for Yoga post

Multicultural Children’s Book Day with Beautiful Rainbow World Puppet post

I realized I did not have specific goals for January but shared some of my goals for 2015. I will share some new things as well as some things that maybe I forgot about already, lol. I also added TWO new goal categories this month which I feel round things out quite nicely.

Goals I Accomplished in January:

Blogging & Social Media Goals

  1. Offer linky services to other bloggers which I am now doing! If you are interested in hiring me to linky your educational blog posts OR a giveaway you are hosting then please check out my Linky Service Form.
  2. Because of the above I am now linking my own posts and giveaways up as well, win-win.
  3. I have not set a time to schedule FB shares like I had hoped for myself.
  4. Pageviews for Janaury 2014 were higher then January 2015. This makes me a little sad as I am really working hard to bring a variety of content to Something 2 Offer

Homeschool Goals

  1. Totally forgot to pick out a read aloud:( But we did enroll in Winter Reading Club!
  2. Not back on Khan Academy since we had a review for SDAccelerate instead with History and Math. We did start weekly Spelling tests again:)
  3. I think the ABC’s of American History is shaping up nicely and only have a couple of guest blogger spots to fill in June!
  4. I think we will look at homeschool discount days to attend as a family. The Homeschool Convention may be too much for Lil’ Red and Big Red with all the people.

Household & Marriage Goals

  1. Blog work and linky service took up more time then I had planned so I didn’t clean 1 room a week:(
  2. Hubby and I did not have a Date Night but a few hours a couple of times to spend kid-free!
  3. Still working on cleaning/chores that Big Red and Lil’ Red can do
  4. Did not try new recipes. Gotta do that for sure this month!

Personal Mommy Goals

  1. I did wear more scarves and tried to coordinate a few outfits. Will have Princess help me some more with this. She has a gift for that sorta thing!
  2. Still NOT wearing much jewelry but I should since I do own some nice pieces. Maybe start with earrings?
  3. Gotta get a few more pairs of shoes that are for colder weather. Wore my tennis shoes but only with jeans.
  4. Totally forgot about increasing water intake which I need to do since Lil’ Red has increased nursing!

 

Things I have Planned for February:

  5.  Pick out Read Aloud that offers audiobook form as well
