This week's goals - 4/13-4/19/08

Let's see. I have a busy week ahead of me. I have quite a few things to get done. Here's the list. I also have plan B in case I have to use it. That's the key, right?

I've decided to start small with my goals while I prayerfully decide on what the big picture should be. I'm only doing a week at a time while I go through that process. I've been categorizing them into big sections, and setting weeking goals in each section.

Faith:
Bible reading and studying every day.
Prayer every day
Memorize one verse of scripture this week

Family:
Pray for John and kids every day
Date night with John on Friday
Field Trip with Michael's class
Work on banquet for kids' school every day

Home:
Clean and organize kitchen Monday and Tuesday
Clean and organize my bedroom Monday and Tuesday
Clean and organize big bathroom Wednesday and Thursday
Set up above three areas to work for us, not us work around them Thursday
Start organizing yard sale - set date for it and fill to boxes of stuff from organizing above three rooms Monday thru Friday
Start seeds indoors Monday for plants that need 8-10 weeks lead time.
Sketch out garden on Saturday and Sunday

Self:
Finish reading Marilu book by Wednesday
Set up organizer to use every day on Monday morning
Start five day blitz on Monday, including exercise every single day.
Bedtime every night at 10 - no exceptions!

Ministry:
Blog every day (I see this as ministry as well as keeping in touch with everyone.)

Business:
All paperwork caught up this week by Tuesday
Make inventory list for Mother's Day show at church on Tuesday
New production schedule set by Wednesday
Restart production on Thursday
Restart website on Thursday

See? Busy week! There is a last category, Fun Stuff, but I have to think long and hard about what I want to do as fun stuff. I'd like to plan a family vacation for sometime in the future. Other than that, who knows. lol

More tomorrow. It's almost 10, and I'm ready for bed!

Today's verse:

Philippians 3:13-14 [Amp]:
13I do not consider, brethren, that I have captured and made it my own [yet]; but one thing I do [it is my one aspiration]: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead,

14I press on toward the goal to win the [supreme and heavenly] prize to which God in Christ Jesus is calling us upward.


Isn't this a great verse for setting goals? I'm after the ultimate goal of living for Christ. These goals help me on my way. I think that this will be my memory verse for this week.
