May Goals
![Police *Police*](https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/e21/police.png)
I felt so sloooow last month. I never got a story into the Historical Fiction, Holiday, or Sci-fi contest. Nuts. That last one especially got to me since I've written a story
every month since it started. It was my own, personal goal to enter
something there, every month. However, it was down to the last minute and while I had an idea for that contest, I couldn't get it down!
On the plus side, I won a the Writer's cramp twice. Woohoo!
Soooooo...

Personal Goals:
![Flowerv *Flowerv*](https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/e21/flowerv.png)
Trying to lose weight. I'm just eating less and trying to get more active without hurting my back more. Goal: Lose 15 pounds by Baby G's first birthday (July!).
![Flowery *Flowery*](https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/e21/flowery.png)
This is the last month for "official" school and then we'll have 3 months off! This mama is ready for a lesson break! Goal: Make it through the next 20 days without pulling my hair out, screaming, and running like a mad-man down the street!
![Flowerb *Flowerb*](https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/e21/flowerb.png)
Get the chicken coop torn down. I worked on it some today. Used a screwdriver and dismantled some of the framework that the guys in the family said couldn't be taken down without a sledgehammer. My hands are sore but it's getting done!! Goal: Have the coop down and out by the end of May.
Let's see how this month turns out!
Ready...set...GO!
