July Goals

Here's how I did on my June goals:

• Continue "real" exercise 2x a week, but also add in mini-sessions 2 evenings - Except for the week that I had insomnia, I did good with this.

• Find out about new car and drivers' licenses - I never knew how hard it would be to find out where I actually go to do this. I quickly found out the requirements for transferring my license and titles, but figuring out the location took quite a bit of effort. I think I got it, though.

• Decrease auto fuel usage by 10% (in terms of dollars!) - This was kinda a dumb goal. We ended up driving less, and if gas hadn't continued to rise, we would've made it. But as it is, we spent about the same amount as last month.

• Figure out some ways to eat healthy and cut the grocery bill - We spent 18% less this month than last month. I feel like we've had enough to eat and it's been quite good for us.

• File all my crazy papers - honestly, I don't know why I put the filing off so long. I set aside a couple of evenings that Billy was at band practice, and I whipped through this bad boy in a 30-minute session. What a relief!
• Shred unneeded ones - This was a little more difficult. When my 8-pages-max shredder started choking on one sheet at a time and overheating after 5 minutes of use, I knew I had problems. Eventually, my shredder was grinding really weird, and I'm a little scared to finish.
  

• Finish choosing photos for the baby book - DONE! And not just the choosing, but also some of the editing, uploading, and arranging on the memory book template from YorkPhoto.com
