Happy second week of November, readers. I’m okay with what I got accomplished last month – even if it wasn’t everything on my list. With prepping for Nanowrimo, fighting stomach issues and strong chronic fatigue, a trip to Bend and trying to get out with Abby every day, I feel just fine about what I accomplished.
It’s so easy to get wrapped up in checking off items on a list, but it’s always important to slow down and take a walk around the neighborhood. (Which is why I like to write ‘walk’ on my list, heh).
Recap of Monthly Goals:
Watch/Read a documentary/biography
Try a new recipe: I am still cooking from Against All Grain cookbooks. I made Carne Asada burrito Bowls the other night (here’s a recipe inspired by AAG, to give you an idea)
Read theology/marriage/bible study book: I’ve been slowly working my way through Constantine’s Sword
Edit ‘Amelia’ : I have plotted out a bit more and have even started (barely) the new first scene!!
Eat healthier/lose weight : I have now lost 6.4 lbs since I started getting more intentional in August. I have – reluctantly – added starch and corn back into my diet but I’m trying to keep it to a minimum.
Post Regularly -3 out of my 4 posts planned isn’t too bad.
October’s Goals:
Sketch out new scenes on ‘Amelia’
Make progress on crocheted doll dress – (buzzer sound) I got so stuck on this project that I put it away until at least January.
Crochet rag rug for laundry room
Complete Joann’s Crochet along – I’m so close to finishing this
Stain clean living room rug – nope nope nope
Clean Subaru – I cleaned the windows and wiped it all down, now to get to vacuuming it
November’s Goals:
Best effort on NANOWRIMO
Complete Joann’s Crochet Along
Vacuum Subaru
Clean Floor Vents
A few Secret goals =)
Because of Nanowrimo (find out what it is here) I’m not having too many goals this month. I REALLY want to get a ton of writing done on ‘Amelia’. Also, if you’re doing nano, I’m ‘dreamingagain’ on the website!
