June Goals: The Oddball List

June is always a bit of a hairy month for teachers; the time we have left to get our long lists accomplished is dwindling and we have only just begun. It kind of makes sense that this month’s goals are going to be a mixed bag.

  1. Get used to the quiet
    -I am notorious for having “background noise” (mainly the Food Network or a show I have seen a zillion times on Netflix or Prime or Disney+). I find it tough to go from a noisy classroom to a “pin-drop quiet” house. I’d like to be able to “switch off” the noise.
  2. Don’t fall behind on weeding
    -I really got behind last spring/summer because it was either pouring down rain and the gardens turned to mud or it was so hot that it was unbearable to be outside for any length of time. This year I changed my layout and there is actually space for the rototiller to get through.
  3. Workout Regularly
    -I fell off the wagon because my Mom had a massive heart attack and my whole routine went out the window. I have noticed the change in myself since I stopped working out regularly and I’m really frustrated. I also think that this month especially I need the outlet of working out to make it through.

What about you? What goals are you setting for yourself?
