September Goals

It's a good thing I have all of you to remind me to do this each month! I'm terrible at remembering things like that! Seriously, I might as well be 80 with the memory I have sometimes! So, here goes nothing!

September & October are my favorite months. I've decided to post my goals for the next two months instead of just one, that way I have more time to complete them! (yes, that is cheating, I know!)

1) Buy a new (to us) car

2) Continue to buy a few Christmas gifts just to get a head start

3) Celebrate my mom's 50th!!!

4) Celebrate my parents 31st Wedding Anniversary! (How cool is that??)

5) Prepare for my friend, Pammy's visit in Sept!

6) Bake a pie (I have NEVER EVER done this before)- Any suggestions??

7) Get our gutters/downspouts/soffits replaced (which means we'll be poor for the next year because of it)

8) Get plenty of quotes for said gutters/downspouts/soffits so that we aren't ripped off!

9) Keep up on classwork since this is the hardest class of my program. Research & Stats, yuck!

10) Go on a mini-vacation with my Hubby for our 1st Anniversary! We're actually (don't make fun), going to Chicago and we're going to go to 6 Flags when they have their fright fest. Our first official date was to a haunted house, so we thought what a better way to celebrate the last year! We're staying for 3-4 days and on our actual anniversary (Oct. 4th) we're going to have a romantic dinner at some restaurant in Chicago and rent a hotel suite :-) I'm pretty excited!

11) Participate and help at our Big Brothers Big Sisters Annual Bowl For Kids Sake

12) Visit my In-laws and take care of their pets so that they can go up to a bed & breakfast (that we purchased for them as a thank you at our Rehearsal dinner)

13) (Last but not least) Workout 4-5 times a week and take my multivitamins daily!! O, and take time to enjoy the leaves turning in our backyard, buy pumpkins to carve and drink hot apple cider from a local orchard!

Yeah, it's a long list, but I think it's pretty doable for these next two months. Maybe I'll make November & December a bit harder! What are your fall goals??

I bowled at last year's Bowl for Kids Sake in my little town, and it was a blast! Now that I have a Little of my own, I'm sure we'll be back this year! :) Ours is in February and it rocks!

Looks like a full list...I'm sure that you can get it all done though! Good Luck!!

Great goals! Definitely start with apple pie. It's the best and quite easy.

Good goals. I am with you- I'd rather have more goals and more time- but I never seem to get it done. Maybe I am too ambitious. You should see my lists! Good luck. Keep us posted.
