1. Loose 55 pounds by December 31, 2012. Down another 5. Still only 38 to go now. I have a feeling I may fail for the yearly goal.
2. Begin writing a book. I have a fiction and non-fiction option. Giving myself 2 years to complete it. Did nothing.
3. In September I needed to get 8 hours of sleep at least three night a week - because I failed at this in August. Each month after I must add one more night per week. I got it. Not that it seemed to help much. I was exhausted most of the month. But now that it is colder, I find myself going to bed early just to get warm.
4. Blog at least 12 times per month. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
5. Finish unpacking and putting together rooms in the house. One room a month. Problem is I have more rooms than months this year. September is the study. Done! And I only had to buy one $27 bookcase and one $15 bookcase. I planned to buy a new rug but one showed up -- not sure from where. I am sad I don't get the one I wanted but I decided to save the money for other things. Here on the photos...
I know I promised the kitchen too. But I can not deliver. But not for lack of trying. My step mom agreed to sew curtains for me. She is arriving in less than 2 weeks with them. So the kitchen will have to wait until the October update. I will also have the dining room done for that. I promise. I know because most of it is already done (and it is only October 1st). The only part I can not promise is the wall being fixed (remember that wall the landlord had to rip open right before I moved in? Yeah, that still needs a little work). The continues dropping temperatures are letting me know that I am rapidly running out of time to winterize and that even though some windows are new, they still need curtains. I am struggling with rugs at the moment. Maybe I will have some clarity by the end of the month.
6. Start a 529 account. Done.
7. Start a savings account. No success here either.
8. Eat out no more then 2 times per month. I think it is important to keep this one from last year. Done! Surprisingly easy this month.
9. Reinstall Photoshop and start editing photos again. Nope.
10. Pay all bills on time. Done!
11. Make at least 1 pair of earrings each week. Nope. No new excuse.
12. Adding a new goal this month... Ladybug will sleep in her own bed. Please! Ha! And since the landlord is in the middle of fixing a window in her room, we have shut off the room and she isn't even pretending to sleep in her room. Hopefully that will change soon.
