Keeping Up With...2019 Goals (Feb Recap)

February went by in a blur, especially the first half of the month!  We had so much fun celebrating Zak's and Daniel's birthdays!  We always do a lot for their birthdays because we don't want to celebrate them together, we want each boy to have his own special day.  It can be exhausting but it is also a ton of fun.  So the month feels like it was split, half partying and not really focusing on my goals and half normal life and focusing on my goals.  I still did pretty good this month, I'm happy with the pace I'm on for the year.

I shared last month that one of my goals for the year is to finish everything on my to do list each day.  This fell apart in January and didn't really get better in February.  As you can see since it's the 12th day of March, I am super behind with just about everything.  I did have a weekend to catch up on things in February and made a lot of progress, then we decided to paint the living room and I fell behind again.  I'm really focusing on finishing things before we leave for vacation at the end of March but if I don't finish stuff, I will be taking the first weekend of April "off" and only focusing on the to do lists.

Here's how my goals are going so far this year with a few notes about February.
