August Goals:
River Tubing: Scheduled for September 8!
Go To A Concert: Recently bought tickets to see Matisyahu in November!
Make Banana Bread: I forgot... fail!
Go On A Picnic: Success! Had a lovely lunch picnic in Central Park with my mom and C- will update about that soon!
Go To Amish Country: Did not make it to Amish country, but did go to Peddler's Village, so semi-success?
Go To A Phillies Game: Got tickets for September 21!
Go To A Drive-In Movie: No drive-ins in NJ. Fail!
Go To the Meadowlands Fair: Fail! Though I did go to the Indo-American Fair, and will be going to the Italian Festival in just a few weeks!
Go To The NY Renaissance Faire: Not yet- plan on going in the next two weeks!
Watch fireworks: Did this on July 4th... does that count?!
Ones from previous Goals post, I have applied for jobs for myself and helped C job search, have been keeping with reading about a book a month, and saving some money, so I think those count as successes too!
September Goals:
Do the above and...Start Christmas Shopping: Never too early to start! And hopefully this way I won't be scrambling at the last minute like I am every other year!
Start Planning Birthday Trip: My birthday is on 12/12 {cue squealing!}. So I want to go bog this year and plan a group trip to New Orleans! I've never been, and it seems like a pretty awesome place to celebrate a golden birthday!
Finish Summer Recaps: I am sooo behind in updating about all the fun this summer, and since remembering fun memories is one of the main reason I blog, I need to get on this!
Save $300: Particularly for the birthday trip and Christmas shopping!
Line A Day Journal: I was doing this for a little while, but got out of the habit. So, I want to try to do it again, so I remember the little things as well as the big ones!
Read 2 Books: Just because there are soo many I want to read! #nerdalert
How are you doing with your goals?
I kept my goals simple this month: focus on health and saving money. So far, they're going OKAY. Saving money is my biggest obstacle! Good luck with your goals! :)
ReplyDeleteI love your goals - it sounds like you are definitely experiencing a lot of fun things! :) I need to make my goals more experience-oriented myself!
ReplyDeleteYour goals are so much fun! I love how you incorporate fun events into them instead of just things that need to be done or things you may not want to do. That's awesome. I think I'll try this for my list next month!! And my birthday is coming up too. Less than a month! Can't wait!
