February 2021 | Aljay & Sandra Goals

Alright...let's start with a bit of review and reflection. 

Here are our goals from last month (Jan)---

My goals...

  1. Be intentional and productive with my time, which to me means staying consistent with...
    1. Come Follow Me
      👍       We don't read scriptures every day as a family. But I decided to babystep it...so we've been doing really well with FHE, thanks to this site >> https://www.fhe123.com/
      They make it soo easy and it's fun and you get all the material. I subscribed and get the lessons free! I use some of the materials throughout the week to supplement our Come Follow Me discussions. 
    2. Exercise - Meal prep and start working out 3X a week.
      👎 It was a slow month, but we picked up the last week of January!! So upward and onward we go!
    3. Limiting my time scrolling through Social Media
      👍       I'm going to say yes! I did see more improvements! 
  2. Home project: Home Office
    1. Create an office space for me to work from ✅
    2. Clean Out Space (move out the recliners and take out trash) ✅
    3. Refresh the shelf units and decorate the office nicely✅
      If it was up to me I would've just done without the shelves, the little black shelf table thing, and put in shelving on the wall. But...Aljay didn't want to get rid of things sooo..compromise. But I love my little space. I have more stuff to add, but I'm just happy I have a place to work that is not in our bedroom. 



Aljay's goals...

  1. Build my desk.✅
  2. Complete the Horse painting💤
    He could've been done, but he's been really focused on cryptocurrency. It's seriously become his full time job now. I can't complain because the gains from crypto trading/investments has been paying for our everyday shopping/groceries/eating out/etc. 

    Aljay discussed with me how he wants to put a hold on taking new commission requests. He has less than 10 more paintings to complete all his orders and then he'll take a much needed break to paint his own original pieces. The past two years has mostly been commissioned pieces and he's ready to just focus on a new collection and paint what he wants to paint. So I've put a hold on taking any further commissioned pieces. 

Good job selves! Now for February...

My February goals...

  1. Get our family health insurance. - we lost our healthcare benefits back in June when I was laid off. We haven't needed to go to the doctors (thank goodness), but we want to be more proactive with our health. To us that means being on top of our health and wellness checkups and monitoring our health and fitness progress with the guidance of a physician. Oh and kids...duh. They need dental appointments and wellness checkups. 
  2. Fitness: Exercise 3X a week
  3. Home project: Organize Pantry & Emergency Closet
    1. Clean out and organize pantry
    2. Clean out and organize emergency closet

Aljay's February goals...

  1. Complete the Horse painting
  2. Complete Martha's order (another painting)


***and just so we can continue speaking this into existence***

Aljay's Goals for this year...

  1. Buy a Truck
  2. Lose weight
Annnnnddd...

Family Goal - we decided that this year we want to take the family on 1 stay-cation and 1 vacation...
Right now we're thinking Vegas or Disney (Florida) for our vacation. St. George or Heber/Park City for our stay-cation. 


***Come through universe! 😂😄😇***

Start the year off with two volleyball tournaments for Leila. The picture below is of her and Isa, the only 14-year-olds on their U16 team.  Fires are destroying parts of California, the Palisade area experiencing the worst of it. Texas and some of the southern states are experiencing some of the worst snow/ice conditions. TikTok is on the verge of being banned, President Trump is continuously passing executive orders that are sending people into panic.  Saleima made a list of the disasters and warned us that Jesus was on His way.  Sefa moved up to the Teachers quorum and was ordained by his Dad, Uncle Dennis, and Uncle Ben. He's growing so quickly and I love seeing his growth. They have a great group of young men. I love that they are old enough to plan activities, including attending the temple to do Baptism.  Sefa's also starting U15 7v7 pylons with coach Matt Manuma. He had made the decision to not be held back for football. It's a common practice here in Utah, a...

Being Prepared For These Times

Auuuu that title sounds like I'm trying to write a General Conference talk or something hahaha. Probably still on the GC vibe from the beginning of the month lol. Anyways... So this pandemic that's going on, it's been something else! It has put the whole world on lock down. So many lives have been affected. I've written quite a bit in my journal, but I wanted to make sure to write about how the Lord has prepared our family specifically for this time. Looking back just in February and March, we can easily see how the Lord had orchestrated parts of our lives.  In February Aljay secured an art collector who commissioned several art pieces. His deposit was the cushion that brought a sense of financial security when we entered this lock-down life.  Towards the end of February, my bosses had heard about school closures in Seattle and decided that we should have a plan in place for our advisers to work remotely in case the schools had to close. We honestly didn...

Leila - Volleyball and more Volleyball  Leila had two tournaments in February. This club season has challenged her in a good way. She wants to play the outside hitter position but is playing on a 16s team (meaning older girls with more experience) and is sitting in the 3rd spot for out side hitting. To get to the 1 or 2 spot she needs more reps, more practice, and more individual coaching. We're seeing improvements each week, but are planning to set aside money for her to do more 1:1 coaching.  These tournaments are no joke. They are allllll day. 6am - 7pm sometimes. 1-day, 2-day, and sometimes 3-day tourneys. The mental stamina it takes as a parent ahahahahh is a real thing! Trying to say the right things to keep your athlete focused, motivated, and locked in is tough. There are so many things that are over stimulating or compounding: - the non stop sound of whistles and girl's cheering/screaming - the smell of swass in the building that increases as the tournament progresses...
