Progress, Day 2, January 2

Today my husband helped me to put up the Eclipse blackout curtains in our bedroom. We saw a big difference right away. I have never been so excited about the prospect of sleeping in total darkness!! Sleep has been hard the past few months. The light from street lights at night makes it hard to go to sleep and the early morning light wakes me up earlier than I would like. I began wearing a sleep mask to bed, but that was starting to get old. So, I am very happy that we got the blackout curtains hung. What a great goal accomplished!

Today I made progress in two of my goal areas for 2020. For my daily reading goal, I read some more chapters of Angel in Aisle 3. I also got my kids' journals caught up through July 31, 2018. I have kept journals for my kids since before they were born. I also keep journals for myself, so I use those and my old planners to spark my memory of what was happening in the kids' lives and record it for them. I plan to keep journals for them through the end of their high school years and then give them to them at some appropriate time when they are adults.

For reflection

Do you journal?  Why or why not?
