Wow, so the first half of the year has already passed. Summer is here and we try to enjoy it as much as possible. I feel that the “older” Josephine becomes, the harder it is for me to pursue certain goals. So many days, while being excellent, leave me exhausted. But I wouldn’t want it any other way. But for the time being and since it is summer, my goals are smaller:
My July 2022 Goals are:
- take Josephine to a beach for the first time
- make a DIY for Josephine
- find a cat sitter for August
- book our plane tickets to Germany
- go away for at least one night
- make ice cream at home again
- give away 5 more things
- sort my “stationary” drawer
- research vacuum robots (our needs to be replaced)
- spend more time on our roof deck
- read at least two paper books
My June 2022 Goals were:
- sort Josephine’s clothes better (by size and in boxes): yes, and I was so sad doing it because so many of her clothes are already too small
- finish a small DIY for our wedding anniversary: I made a shadow box with a cotton flower
- sit down at least once a week and plan tasks better
- post in my Instagram feed every day
- get 10 new (freelance) jobs
- figure out a proper plan when to travel to Germany: we decided on one week in September
- submit all the documents that are still missing for Josephine’s German birth certificate: that took so long, but we eventually got an appointment in the German Consulate and are now waiting for Germany to create the documents
- publish at least 2 blog posts per week
- give away at least 5 things via one of those no trash platforms
- close my old German bank account
- discuss renovation plans for our apartment in more detail
- go swimming once a week: I wanted to, but then they closed the swimming pool for the whole summer because of a lack of lifeguards …
