What are your goals this month?
I'm also linking up my finance goals this month here:
I have had a goal of decluttering and having a garage sale for pretty much the whole year and have yet to cross that one off of my list! I also have been trying to read more and have failed at that too. Good luck on your goals this month!
ReplyDeleteLove the goals, girl!!! Found you via facebook! Very cute blog!! My monthly goals are to average around 350 pageviews a day..also, not spend money on going out to eat! I've vacationing next month to NYC for the first time and I need to save every penny I can! Best of luck with your goals! xo
ReplyDeleteThat's a good goal-but I can see where it's hard to stick with since it's SO much work. I keep thinking I need to do it too-we'll see if I can get by with an online one or if I need an actual one. lol
ReplyDeleteGreat goals for April! Purging and selling will help towards your house funds goal! Good luck!
ReplyDeleteGreat goals for April! I need to get back into writing out goals, especially finance goals. We had been doing pretty good at using a cash only system and sticking to the budget, but last month was awful. It was mostly my fault too. Good luck with your goals this month!
ReplyDeleteFantastic!! Its so important to set goals! I love being able to look at the end of the month the success that I have and also see the areas in which I did bad on in order to improve for the coming month...great job!!
ReplyDeleteOoooh, lots to do girl! Hope you can get em all done! Cleaning up my social media accounts would be an awesome thing to do!
ReplyDeleteI love your shop! That's so cool that you set that up :) I'm hoping to do something like that this summer! :)
ReplyDeleteLove doing the goals post! So glad you started a link up!
ReplyDeleteI love this goals list - and I especially love that you aren't afraid to post the ones you didn't meet! I need to do something like this. It's perfect for holding yourself accountable. Kristi @ Inspiration Kitchen
ReplyDeleteElwes was amazingly awesome. BTW I was the one cosplaying as Little John from Men in Tights and I actually used to work with Ken at BioFire. I saw him at the last FanX too. Tell him I said "Salutations" and such.
ReplyDeletewell, opening a shop is a ton of work and you did it beautifully! so march is a success! =) a great april to you! xo
ReplyDeleteI've been listening to a lot of songs from Nashville the tv series
ReplyDeleteThose are great goals (and totally doable, assuming you aren't taking up all your spare time moving!). Best of luck with them- not eating out and trying new recipes are sure to help with the diet plan. I love that some of your goals will make others easier...what a great way to keep yourself reaching to achieve them all!

Oh gosh. I should consider purging for "moving eventually", too. Even if for me, "eventually" might mean in a decade. I've been in my house three years tomorrow, and haven't even fully unpacked! At this rate, a decade will come quickly.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your goals!!
I have been listening to Maroon 5 lately!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm moving in the next month or so... I really need to get on it. lol
