Happy Friday! It’s been a short week, but an all-too-tiring one for me. (Getting used to a world where I don’t take a nap every day is difficult, apparently!) It’s the end of the month, which means it’s time to review the goals I set in May and set some new ones for June.
Here’s how my May goals went:
> finances: refinance my auto loan
This didn’t get done this month, mainly because I ran into a bit of a problem with a phishing scam earlier in the month. I took all the precautions, but it did mean I couldn’t speak to anyone about refinancing my auto loan. Hopefully soon!
> nagging task: launch a new blog theme
Yes! And I am so, so happy with it. It’s such a change from my old blog theme and feels so fresh and light and airy. It’s exactly what I wanted!
> health: stop snacking at night
Eh? I didn’t think about this goal too much, especially during my cruise and then diving back into the real world this week. Oh, well!
> exploration: enjoy my cruise
Yes, yes, and yes. I enjoyed my cruise so much. This was my first time taking a seven-day cruise and I think that is the perfect length for a cruise. I felt ready to come home on Saturday, not dreading the return back to the real world like I normally do.
> personal habit: stop sleeping in my contacts (!!)
Yes! I slept in my contacts once or twice this month, but I have done an outrageously awesome job at taking them out each night. Hoping I can keep this personal habit up!
For June, here’s what I have planned:
> finances: save 10% of my income for move-out costs
> nagging task: make a therapy appointment
> health: start tracking my food
> exploration: visit the pool every weekend
> personal habit: turn off all electronics by 8pm
Do you have any goals for June?

May was a good goal month for you overall, it seems.
I think my goal for June is to get back to reading, preferably outside, since it should be nice weather. Will see if this happens, I’ve been in a total reading slump lately.
Happy weekend (and hope you can get a nap or two in!)

Yay for accomplishing so many of your goals! I’d call May a success!
My goal for June is getting this apartment in order for when my family (parents + sister + her family) visit in less than 4 weeks! Hooray!)

I am so glad you had a blast on your cruise! Ours was a 5 day cruise but I think we would probably prefer a 7 day one too. 5 days was amazing, but we weren’t quite ready to leave!
Good luck with your June goals! I really need to get into the habit of shutting off my electronics earlier too.

I’d say that you did really well on your goals considering it was a month that included a long vacation! Months where I am gone for a week+ are the ones where I really struggle to find my rhythm and get things done!
I don’t have any specific goals for June. One thing I want to do is to carve out some me time for myself each weekend. Besides that I started triathlon training this month so I want to try to get in 1 swim, 2 bikes, and 3 runs a week, plus 1-2 strength training sessions each week… Which seems like a lot but I will figure out a balance hopefully!

Great job on achieving your goals in May despite being so busy and gone for a week. In June I REALLY want to step back from making plans and try to relax and not over commit myself to things. Right now the last three weekends in June are all wide open with no plans and I’m trying very hard to keep things that way especially after the busy May I had!

As you already know, my goal for June is to accomplish Whole30! I think I’ll also add visit the pool every weekend. Sounds amazing!
