Good-bye

1_September

These last two weeks have been terrifically crazy! I feel like I haven’t had time to breathe, much less post with regularity or even stay on top of a to-do list. I got a lot accomplished…but a lot of that wasn’t even on my list 😥 Bayleaf and I (as of yesterday) are officially moved in to our new apartment (and I am moved out of mine). There is nothing like moving to remind you that you have too much stuff and don’t clean the bathroom or vacuum often enough. So did I make some progress? Well…a little, but not a whole lot.

  • Read two books – I did read Brave New World by Aldous Huxley 
  • Finish one bear for the Mother Bear Project
  • Buy my bridesmaid dress
  • Lose 5 lbs – I did lose 2?
  • Work out at least 6 times – There were several days of moving for 9+ hours straight, so I’m counting it.
  • Knit at least half of B’s wedding present – I’ve got about 1/4 of it finished
  • Create a budget template
  • Create debt repayment plan
  • Sort and donate unnecessary clothing and shoes
  • Spending fast (excluding bills & bridesmaid dress)

So I got some things accomplished, made some kinds of progress, and flat out didn’t do other things. Things I’m kind of proud of accomplishing are: finishing knitting/crocheting my friend’s gifts before he moved (which is why more bear progress wasn’t made), donating four Hefty bags of clothing, studying topology on my own, and paying my emergency room bill (was only about $11.68). I also set up a payment plan with Discover, so that was something good (and bad) that was done this month. October is a good month, and one of my favorites, so I’m excited to see what it will bring now that September is ending.
