This week wasn't half bad with goals.  I think, despite everything that was going on (which was a lot--it was craziness!), I did pretty well.  This week I don't have any cleaning goals, but school is gearing up where we are right now, so I think the less goals the better for the next couple of weeks.  Anyway, here's how I did.
