August Goals

[ewall]

What are your goals for August?

[ewall]

Spending freeze. Holy shit, we spent a ton of money in July 

I'm going to attempt a walk around the neighborhood every evening. Would love to be more active. Hopefully the weather will cooperate for the most part.

Lose 2 lbs. Wheee. I'd love to do Whole 30, but I know I would be setting myself up for failure.

Do a fun summer activity each weekend: go to the pool, go to a state park, go to outdoor concert, go to baseball game, really live it up!

Work out 5 days a week
deep clean and organize my whole apartment
go to the pool 3-4 times per week  (hot) This should be a hard one

-Take a walk every other day
-De-clutter the house
-Put the dog on a diet lol
-Get out of the house more on the weekends
-Go grocery shopping more often to make sure we have fresh fruit
-Get H prescription safety glasses for work
-Get a new garage door opener to put in my car
-Send my sister a housewarming gift

I need to do a spending freeze too and start a new budget. The current one is outdated. I also want to de clutter and reorganize all of the closets and the spare bedroom. Finally, get pregnant. I'm going to test on Monday I think. I'm not feeling optimistic though.

[grover]

- Get 10k steps six days a week
- Walk dogs at least three times a week once school starts
- Spending freeze and get back to tracking the budget
- Deep clean house
- Purge clothing
- Hopefully get pregnant, because I really don't want to go through another (will be fourth!) summer not pregnant.

Get a job
Get back into gym/eating routine

I'm not asking for a lot

Finally attend the @%^$^%$%^$@@ country fair in our new town! I hear it's one of the best in the state...and possibly the country. We had to miss it last year due to rain...boo. This healthy eater wants ALL the fair foods.

Have a great appointment.

PAY OFF DEBT. I am scheduled to do it August 21st!!! (I hate hashtags but why not....#omg #threeyearsinthemaking )

Deep Clean the house.

- workout a lot more and clean up my eating.
- spend 50% less money during the month. I spend way too much.

MrsMB so exciting! It will feel so good to have that paid off!

I seriously am counting down the days. What's even better is that I'll have like $80-$90 extra left over that day from the last payment. I am going to treat myself to a few tops to celebrate. AND AND AND...I have a great plan and budget going forward in subsequent months to use the money I was using in the payoff to increase retirement, HSA, and money to my savings account. I feel so good about this!

Big month over here!
-get a good start to the school year
-plan meals for weekday nights
-only spend on necessities & pay down some of my cc

[estrellita]

Hope the weather cooperates for you ewall! I love going for walks after dinner/before bedtime but it's been too hot lately...we get out every morning and sometimes after first nap though so that's nice

melsamoony- Yay yoga! I really miss going...maybe I should get my DVDs out and do that while C naps...I bet that would be really good for me.

HoneySpider- Hope you get a job offer soon!

grover- Many prayers that if you achieve no other goal on your list that you are at least pregnant come Sept. Rooting for you friend!

MrsMB- HUGE congrats! Way to go friend! Definitely treat yourself to something extra special once you are debt free!

My goals are:

1) Walk every day

2) Find another activity for C once swim is over

3) Meal plan

4) Be more intentional with DH

5) Finish purging/donating all my clothes I don't wear anymore

6) Get organized/create a cleaning schedule I can commit/stick to
