Aaagh, was prompted by the ever so efficient Rebecca Thorman, over at Modite, to think about how I’m doing on my September goals. Can it be the middle of the month already??
So, here’s where we are:
September Life Goals
- As I’m getting married in October, my main goal is to plan a stress-free, low-key wedding that Rick and I will both remember forever: Going good! Planning is going well, and it’s been fairly low stress so far. I might even have a dress picked out! And now we have a marriage license – woo hoo!
- This is still a nascent blog, so I’d like to increase my readership by at least 10% this month: Well, i’m getting there, slowly. Not at my goal yet, so help me out!
- Plan out fun trips with R to NYC in October and the UK at Christmas: Yep, yep, yep – tickets are booked, dinners are planned, can’t wait to get out there
- Finally harvest my herbs I’ve been nurturing outside all summer (basil, thyme and sage), then actually incorporate them into new recipes!: Hmmm, the rain is putting paid to my nascent gardening plans, but they are getting there, the herbs at least…
- Remember to spend quality time with my friends, when I’m not a) working, b) working out, c) blogging, d) talking to the dog, Sophie, e) planning aforementioned low-key wedding, f) watching SYTYCD and Glee, g) practicing Lindy Hop with R: I did it, I promise
Still more work to do for the rest of the month, but I’m feeling pretty good about my non-work goals. Need to spend a bit more time blogging though – wish me luck!

Hey there! Your list of goals sounds like a lot of fun – I wish mine could have more fun in it. Alas, it’s all work and no play for me. Good luck and hope your goals are going well.

Planning a low-key stress-free wedding is a huge accomplishment! I can’t even believe you have more on this list. Be proud of that… and congratulations!

Thanks Rebecca, I am trying very hard not to be a Bridezilla, even with just a low-key affair, it’s tempting!

Your goals ARE fun! And congrats on getting married soon (and you are a wise bride to value the stress-free route!) And you have a new reader here, so #2 is coming along slowly but surely
