Updates on Dreams and Goals from December

 

December is drawing to a close, and I wanted to look back on the goals I made for this month to see how I did! 😊 Are you ready?

Address and mail Christmas cards. This all happened MUCH later than I intended, for a variety of reasons, but I did it! (And now I have my return address stamper for next year. It was one of the delays this year.)

Buy and wrap gifts. Done! And it wasn’t all last minute, either…at least on the buying! I still can’t believe that year I left it all to Christmas Eve!

Enjoy some Christmas fun! I feel like we did a better job of this one this year than we’ve done in several recent years. Our Christmas fun included: seeing the tree on Monument Circle, decorating cookies from the cookie kit, watching a handful of Christmas movies, going to see the lights in Wapakoneta, doing the Christmas Tour of Homes in Adams County, going to see Annie, and taking part in the Christmas Eve service.

Plan for end-of-year speaking. I did it! The planning and the speaking. Now I’m looking ahead to 2026!

Undo all I did. I haven’t taken down the Christmas decorations at church yet. We have a wedding at our church in early January, and the bride wanted to have the trees up as part of her décor, so they are staying (at least most of them). At home, I’ve taken down all the decorations except the two trees in the living room. My hope is to have it all packed away by New Year’s Eve.

Prepare for 2026. I have been a planning fool over the past couple of weeks. In both home and work arenas, I’ve been planning and making lists and working as far ahead as I can!

And that’s a wrap on monthly goals for 2025!
