I'll start off by saying that this post may be more for myself than anyone else. Although there are only three weeks left in October (not even half way there folks!) I still want to put together a list of my October goals. I follow a number of bloggers and Victoria posts her monthly goals like clock work. It holds her accountable and I would like to follow in her footsteps. I still have my New Years resolutions in a note on my phone and have been working hard to cross things off.
I want to drill down on a monthly basis to strive towards achieving those New Years goals and even add some goals that are attainable in just one month.
October Goals:
- Stop Snacking Before and After Dinner - I nibble on things here and there as I cook and I know those empty calories add up! Then I nibble after I have my dessert, right as I go to bed. So unneeded!
- Lose 2 Pounds - No explanation for this one. It just needs to happen. The 2AM pizza and extra beer needs see its way out.
- Switch My Gym "Off" Days to Saturdays - After a long week, the last thing I want to do is wake up on a Saturday and hit the gym. Sundays are far more slow and quiet and I like to start the week off on a good note.
- Come in Under My Personal Budget by $100 - The last Sunday of every month, Justin and I sit down and make our next month's budget. We talk about plans, things we need or want, and variable expenses. We each get a "personal" budget. This month I really want to not spend my entire personal budget because I really don't need much of anything this month.
- Clean the House - I usually do a full house clean (baseboards, washing the floors by hand, dusting, etc) every 2 weeks. Well these past few weeks have been full of entertaining and fun events, so I just have not gotten around to it!
On the first of next month, I will have new goals and see where I fell with these current goals!
