šHappy October! October sounds like a near repeat of September. May those things that are important to you and The Lord be accomplished in His grace and with His help.I still find these lists exhausting! š Perhaps if I wrote down my list, I would find it equally so.
ReplyDeleteYou know, I do believe that if you were to write down your list, it would be at least this long -- maybe longer!š
ReplyDeleteI do have many of the same things on my list for each month, as they are ongoing.šš
Seems like you are doing great with your goals. For the 'Ber' months I have a calendar where I put tons of thingsā¦ but maybe I should add the 'personal-me' goals tooā¦ water, sugarā¦.
