September Goals:
1. Clean out bathroom closet. Check! This one took no time at all, and had me wondering why I hadn't done it sooner!
2. Clean out / organize dresser drawers. Check!
3. Purchase diffuser and essential oils. Check! I purchased my oils through Lindsay, who was super helpful. I was looking for fall scents, she steered me in the right direction, and also helped me pick out a diffuser from Amazon. So far I am really liking the oils, and already have a running list of more I would like to add to my collection!
4. Source bathroom decor. I made a small bit of progress on this one. I did decide what towels I will be getting, I am just waiting for a good sale before I hit purchase. Still need to figure out everything else, but that's something!
5. Clean Keurig. Check! I was worried there for a second that I broke it, but thankfully it just needed to be unplugged for a little bit. I went through quite a few plain water cycles to ensure the vinegar was all out, and I think the machine wasn't quite ready for the constant usage in such a short amount of time, haha!
September Habits:
1. Drink 4 YETI's of water. I can't quite say this has become a habit once again...still need a bit more work!
2. Meal plan by Thursday night. Another one that needs a little bit more time...Friday's are grocery shopping day, and I still find myself figuring out meals that morning to make my list.
3. Asleep by 9:45 on weeknights. This has really become a habit in the last month. So much so that it is coming off the list! I have been really cognizant of the time in the evenings and making sure that lights are out by 9:45, if not earlier to be honest.
4. Spend 15 minutes a day on personal email. I started out relatively strong on this one, but it didn't last too long. Still need a bit more time!
5. Water window sill plants every other day. The plants are doing really well! I have been pretty darn good with watering, and the one I was nursing back to health has really started to grow again. Super happy about that!
All in all, a really good month I would say!
This is what I hope to accomplish in October...
October Goals:
1. Source bathroom decor. Take two on this one!
2. Clean out closet. I have started to run out of hangers, which is a clear sign that some cleaning out needs to be done.
3. Start Christmas shopping list. It's hard to believe that Christmas is less than 3 months away. I want to get started on my shopping list, both planning out all who I am buying for, as well as some gift ideas.
4. Winterize porch & backyard. It's getting to be that time of year when the pots are emptied, the hose unhooked, and the furniture gets put away until next year. Depending on the weather, I might keep the furniture out, but it's definitely time to say good bye to the flowers.
5. Buy a new vacuum. I have been in the market for a new vacuum for months, if not longer. However, purchases like that tend to overwhelm me because there are soooo many options. Mine is getting really bad, though, and it is time to buckle down, do a bit of research, and make a dang decision. Any recommendations, please send my way!
October Habits:
1. Drink 4 YETI's of water.
2. Meal plan by Thursday night.
3. Spend 15 minutes a day on personal email.
4. Stay off social media until after my morning workout. Social media can be such a time suck, and I find my mornings go so much smoother if I don't get on for a 'quick scroll'
5. Walk outside 3 days a week. I've gotten away from taking afternoon/evening walks, and I want to get back to it. I see such an improvement in my wellbeing when I take the time to get outside and walk. It's going to be more and more tempting to just cozy up on the couch after work as it gets cooler outside, and darker earlier, but I want to make sure I take that time to get outside and get fresh air.
Do you have any goals/habits you have set for October?
Linking up with Lindsay.
