These past 31 days have flown by. I felt like it was yesterday when I posted my October goals. I have to say, I am pretty darn proud of how I did this month. I definitely credit that to being able to stay home, somewhat predictable naps and a very chill baby. Another thing that helped me accomplish my goals was making daily to do lists and checking on my goals throughout the month. This month, I cooked more than I have since before I was pregnant, made lots of new decorations for the house and spent a lot of time working on my little business. This is exactly why I set goals each month.
Now, lets take a look at the specifics:
1. Make 5 new crockpot recipes. Accomplished.
2. Lose 5 lbs. Failed. I’m still doing Weight Watchers but it’s not working like I had hoped it would. I may be one of those people who doesn’t lose the weight until I’m done breastfeeding. But on the other hand, I feel great. I’m able to fit into almost all of my tops and am only 1 size away from my old pants. Because of that, I’m going to keep doing what I’m doing. Eating healthier and exercising.
3. Start Christmas Shopping. Accomplished. I’ve finished a lot of stocking stuffers and picture gifts of Avery thanks to the Vista Print deal I picked up earlier this month.
4. Create business cards & inserts for Simply Made with Love. Accomplished. Again thanks to Vista Print and the $10 for $50 deal I bought.
5. Complete 7 things off my fall bucket list. Accomplished.
Pumpkin Bread
Craft Fair (went to two with mom)
Halloween Wreath
Frame AG’s footprints as Ghosts
Tailgate for a USF game
Try all of Starbucks fall drinks
6. Reorganize my office/ craft/ sewing room. Accomplished. I still have a bit to do but I think I will always find something that needs to be done in there. The biggest accomplishment was that I emptied the closet and went through everything in it. I just have way too much stuff!
How did you do on your goals this month? What was your biggest accomplishment?
