July Goals

Guys, this week has been quite challenging to say the least. Thank ya'll so much for the prayers, texts, comments, and words of encouragement. This blogging world is truly the best! While we are certainly not out of the storm yet, the peace I have from spending time with the Lord and your prayers have truly given me more strength than I would have had on my own. 

Other than the past week, June was a good month to Mrs. King! Not only did I 98% complete my goals for the month, but I also actually enjoyed this month. Maybe it was because Toby and I celebrated six months of marriage with a nice weekend unplugged. Maybe it was because we had people at our apartment a lot more this month. Maybe it was a combo of the two. Who knows?! 

On to the goals! My June goals were:

• Complete relationship calendar. I found the calendar via Pinterest here, and while we didn't finish this completely, the purpose behind it was fulfilled: to up the romance and spontaneity!  
• Save up for Toby's birthday. Toby turns 25 in 13 days and I still have yet to figure out exactly what to do for his birthday, but at least I have options because I saved!
• Throw an apartment warming. I had so much fun at our apartment warming! It definitely inspired me to host more.

And now, goals for July:

• Complete Lord, Teach Me to Pray. I started this book by Kay Arthur Monday, and let me just say that I am loving this book! It came at such a perfect time.
• Give Toby an amazing birthday. I got 13 days, ya'll. THIRTEEN. 
• Make and stick to a schedule. I really need to buckle down and get a blogging and social media schedule going so that I don't spend all day and night writing, posting, tweeting, retweeting, sharing, commenting, etc. I want to be able to shut off and spend time with Toby at the end of the day and not feel like I'm rushing through quiet time.

How'd ya'll do in June? What are your goals for this month?
