I am really working on achieving my monthly goals. But then there are still many days when I am glad that I get dressed, eat and keep the baby happy. In general we are getting better with finding routines. Although that also means that, in some cases, I have less time for myself because Josephine needs more attention and entertainment. So some goals just made it from the May onto the June list. But I am sure I will reach them. Eventually.
My June 2022 Goals are:
- sit down at least once a week and plan tasks better
- close my old German bank account
- sort Josephine’s clothes better (by size and in boxes)
- post in my Instagram feed every day
- get 10 new (freelance) jobs
- figure out a proper plan when to travel to Germany
- finish a small DIY for our wedding anniversary
- discuss renovation plans for our apartment in more detail
- go swimming once a week
- submit all the documents that are still missing for Josephine’s German birth certificate
- publish at least 2 blog posts per week
- give away at least 5 things via one of those no trash platforms
My May 2022 Goals were:
- eat breakfast every day: I have finally managed this consistently since Josephine has been born
- find a new German bank: yes, I opened a new account with Wise
- take more breaks during the day: I think so, it has also helped that Josephine sleeps and naps more consistently
- get a hole in our bathroom fixed: well, it is not fixed yet, but the handyman is booked for this week
- the car – try to reactivate my car: yes, yes, yes! we tried it on Memorial Day and it just started
- have a picnic in a park: we met friends in Central Park, had lunch there and then chatted and played a game, I think that counts
- go swimming once a week: I went exactly once
- submit all the documents that are still missing for Josephine’s German birth certificate: we just can’t seem to get an appointment at the consulate to submit the very last document
- publish at least 2 blog posts per week: almost …
- give away at least 5 things via one of those no trash platforms: I have the 5 things, but I haven’t posted them yet
