General Thoughts
Reset Questions
What went well in May? May was my last full month of work at the Oklahoma Tax Commmission. It was a very chalenging month as there was a lot of work to ensure a smooth transition with my exit from work. I also took my driving test and passed, which I am relieved about since I am moving next month!
What didn’t go so well in May and what can I improve? I let the stress from my last month of work get to me. This somewhat got in the way of how much I was able to enjoy this last full month in OKC before I move, so I want to make sure I hit my OKC bucket list items.
Goals for June?
