Monday Motivation

Monday Motivation Review
10 Goals for Feb 6-12

Prayer and Community
1. Read the daily Mass readings 3x this week.
2. Pray a decade of the Rosary with the children.  We prayed a whole rosary in the church before our Fun Friday morning with the homeschool group!  I still want to work on doing this at home.  This could be a good Lenten commitment.
3. Prepare for our house blessing this Saturday!  Make a menu, invite some fellow parishioners, and clean the house!!!  This was a wonderful celebration!  We had 2 families come over along with our pastor, and Steven grilled chicken and steak fajitas.

Here is Father blessing our front door!
(I'll post more photos later today)
 
Health
4. Attend 2 Zumba classes. 
5. Take a nature walk with the children.  This needs to be prioritized, but I'll blame the yucky weather the past couple weeks.
6. Plan weekly meals   I always forget how well the breakfast-for-dinner goes over!  Need to do that more often.  I definitely re-adjusted this menu since I wrote Tuesday twice, LOL!
Mon-Grilled steak, baked potatoes and green beans. Tues-Creamy pasta with leftover grilled chicken and sundried tomatoes, broccoli, salad, Tue-Quesadillas with grilled chicken/steak or grilled chicken salad, Wed-Pizza, Thur-baked chicken, Fri-breakfast for dinner, Sat-house blessing-plan menu!, Sun-grill? 
 
Home Management and Homeschool
7. Sort and prepare clothes for donate/resale (have these in 2 large baskets but need to iron and find out resale store's policies)  I'll be prioritizing this one too this week!
8. Finish hanging artwork on walls and start at least one sewing project on my list (bunting-see here for example, camera case, stockings, bedskirt, pillowcases, girl skirts)  Yes, finished bunting and bedskirt!!!
 
 Before and after, with my rainbow bunting banner!  I'll share a bit more on this for my Pinning it Down Tuesday post!
 

9. Get in 4 mornings of homeschool, Classical Conversations, and Valentine-Making (buy supplies) at homeschool Friday play day.
10.  Make new files for bills.   Yes!  So proud of myself!
