Wow! Where did June go? This year is flying by! Our #1 goal for July is simply to enjoy ourselves. We want to spend more time as a family doing fun stuff. We want to go to the pool, the zoo, parks, hiking, outdoor markets, and anywhere else that strikes our fancy. It’s a great time to be outside and together before the back-to-school season starts. Isabella has decided to go to school for one more year before we leave. She will be in an advanced math class and the gifted and talented program for the year. I’m sure it will keep her much busier so I’m hoping to enjoy all the time I can with her before school starts again.
It’s time to start saving money for the SUV we need to buy before our trip. It’s likely to be our largest expense during the preparation process and the most difficult item to purchase. We need an SUV with the ability to tow the travel trailer that we are interested in. We have been narrowing down options and trying to figure out the best option for us. We are leaning toward a Suburban 2500.
We want to continue our decluttering journey this month. We might have a yard sale this month. We are around 14 months from our hopeful departure date. It’s becoming more and more real feeling all the time. We are getting to that point where the amount of stuff left to do and to get rid of is really starting to weigh on us. The idea of downsizing our entire 4 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom home down to a 28-foot travel trailer is starting to sink in and become reality. We are starting to look around and realize just how much stuff we still need to get rid of. We do plan to have a storage unit for the things that we want to keep but don’t have room for on the road.
We have a couple of blog-related goals this month. These are rare for us. We don’t make too many goals pertaining to the blog. Our first goal for this month is to make a habit of posting three times a week on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Our second goal is to apply and hopefully be approved to be an Amazon Affiliate.
We will be continuing to work on our house. We want to finish the rest of the painting that we started last month. We are hoping to cross at least one more big thing off the list too but we aren’t sure what it will be yet. Our fence around our back yard is a good possibility.
