You can take a look at my list here. But I have posted it in this post too. For this month I am starting out slow. I am planning out my course because I know I will get sucked into life and not complete things in a timely manner! Gah!
Here is the plan:
November - 30 days
Write a letter to myself #3 - stay tuned
Scripture memory #8 - I will be memorizing Psalm 138
Monthly report #6 - at the end of the month

finish date: 07/29/2017
