My Goal for the month of September…

With our homeschool curriculum and the ‘Pit of Despair’ finally organized and sorted, I’m feeling like I can breathe a little easier. You can see the lovely before and after pictures in my August goal update post.

Ahhh…it feels good.

For September, my goal relates a little more to me personally ~ keep track of my time better and make better use of it. I love lists and schedules, but I also get easily sidetracked. This month is going to be a busy month for not only our family, but me personally. I have a lot of things that I need to balance ~ and keeping our kids and family central is important to me.

I’ve been using Toggl {thanks to Carisa’s suggestion} to help track my time better…and see where I’m wasting it or can manage it better. I love that I can use it from my itouch and my computer desktop. Of course the pretty graphs don’t hurt either. :)

What’s one thing that you really want to do this month?
