10 for 10 Update

This year, I am trying something new. I have 10 goals. And some of you will get to help me with them (my running friends)! This will also help me become intentional, I believe.

1. Read three professional books
  • Daily Five by The Sisters (as they are known)
  • CAFE book (by same authors as above)
  • Boy Writers by Ralph Fletcher
2. Run 5 5K's
  • Due to tendonitis, I am in a boot and will be walking one this morning (I think it still counts, right?) - Did it in about 45 minutes
3. Run a sub 30 5K
4. Pay off debt to dad (and thus, be debt free except my mortgage)

  • uh, yeah, I'm debt free!!!!!!!!!!
5. Go to Honduras on a mission trip (scared of flying)
  • Have my passport now and will pay my first installment tomorrow
  • Have paid half of the trip
  • Went on trip...Wow! I am so glad I went...there will be tons of posts about it.
6. Clean off all of the clothes off my floor and have them put away
7. See a movie by myself
  • Saw Date Night...parts were definitely funny, others a little uncomfortable. I do enjoy Steve Carell though.
8. Give blood 4 times (one down and three to go)
  • Signed up for my second one - it's sponsored by CW25 for The Vampire Diaries - I'll let you know how that turns out :)
  • Have given twice and will only be able to give one more due to traveling to Honduras in July.
  • Have A+ blood...maybe that's why I am so smart! :)
  • Gave three times and because of traveling to Honduras, cannot give again till next year. However, if I go to Honduras again next summer - which I am planning on doing - I can't give until a year after I get back...it's a vicious cycle!
9. Write my compassion children three times each this year
  • wrote each one once so far
10. Finish reading whole Bible (on track to finish mid-July)
  • About two more weeks and then the OT is finished! On to the NT...excited!
  • Reading the NT right now - in the gospels
  • Finished the first day I was in Honduras - How cool is that?!

I love #8 because it talks about you going back NEXT year!!! Can't wait to hear details about what God did in Honduras. MAH
