3in30 Challenge

Time for a 3 in 30 check-in.  Week 2 of October.  Details of my goals are back in this post.

  1. Be consistant with my morning routine – Mostly another FAIL.  The only morning that I was up by 6:30 am this week was the one that Josh bribed me with a hot breakfast.  Jacob has been up a few times in the night this week.  I'm exhausted during the day and am having trouble getting to sleep at night once the house is quiet.  Then I wake up multiple times in the night.  My body has days and nights all backwards right now.  Holding on.  I know this will pass.  I'm trying to get back to my goal time while not beating myself up.  See goal #3 for my other drain.
  2. Reading – I'm keeping up with 1 John, Seasons of a Mother's Heart, Educating the WholeHearted Child, and Grace for the Good Girl.  I'm about half way through Up, Down, or Sideways.  Want to see my full Fall reading list?
  3. 31 Days to… – Keeping up with 31 Days of Finding Joy in Depression.  Still taking a lot out of me, but feels great at the same time to be obedient and bring such a tough subject to light.

What are your goals for October?
