The fact that we're in the last month of 2016 is mind blowing to me! SO much has happened this year! I'm always so thankful when I write my year-end post, to be able to look back and re read memories that I've documented over the course of the last 11-12 months. I can't wait to write that one, but for today I have some goals I'd like to accomplish before next year!
I'll go ahead and skip details on my November goals recap because basically everything is 50% complete, but hey, that's life, and I'm okay with it! ;)
Run. No specific set of miles or anything, though. I want to ease back into it. I've run here and there over the last few weeks, and while its come back quite naturally, I miss being in a weekly routine. I'll be honest, too, I like running in the cooler temps! Caleb and I always have. We just both get so overheated in the summertime heat while running, so cooler temps make us happy (as long as there isn't ice on the roads).
Lose a few lbs. This will kind of go hand in hand with running/exercise, but I've really been trying to eat healthier the last few weeks overall and I've noticed its paying off, but I need to get more serious about it. I don't like being uncomfortable in my own skin.
Do my nails. My nails are seriously neglected. I keep them trimmed and clean, but never polished. I don't necessarily need to go pay for a manicure, I'd just like to spend ONE night soaking them, clipping them, painting a few pretty coats on!
Just be. Caleb and I have so much time over the next few months to just BE. Be together. I want to date
Launch our photography business!!! We legitimately only have a few minor things to tweak and we'll be ready. We don't want to rush into it, but this is also something we've wanted for a while now so we're excited to get it going!
Finish a book, finally. I am knee deep in one that I'm loving (titled The Year of Fog), and I have a few non-fiction books I'd like to pick up next, too. I feel like my "books to read" list is so long I never know which to go for next!!
Step up my digital organization. I need to continue weeding through my old photos and deleting a lot of them. Do I really need a photo of my Thanksgiving plate from 4 years ago? No. I need to pick the best ones, keep them, and put them on a new safe hard drive. I can't imagine ever losing old family photos, or photos of Caleb and I from our first year of marriage. Those are things I want/need to protect!
I hope everyone has a lot of FUN planned for the month of December! What's one thing you'd like to accomplish this month?

Woo hoo so exciting to launch your photography business!! That will be awesome! Maybe Santa will bring you some fancy nail polish! :)
ReplyDeleteI've said it a ton and I'll say it again: SO excited for your launch!!
ReplyDeleteMan, finishing a book would be nice. And also painting my nails, too! I'll borrow both of those goals from you ;)
Great goals! I'm making it an ongoing goal of mine to "just be" as well...I think it's so important especially in the world we live in today. I read an article the other day about how stress is being super romanticized these days and I agree...we need to just BE! and not be so busy. SO excited about your photography business!!!
ReplyDeleteI have a really great DIY Manicure on my blog for last month. Check it out. It's a gel mani and it lasts. Promise!
