December Goals

Here we are – it is December and the year is nearly over – ack! So it’s time to look back over how I did on my November goals as wells as setting some new December goals. Here we go!

Blog Goals -

In November I talked about how it’s been impossible for me to post daily so I was just going to focus on quality over quantity. And I feel like I’ve been doing that, so that’s good! Success. However, I also said I would get through my backlog of one million emails. Fail. Oops

December Goals –

No major blog goals for this month but just want to still do consistent posts. I’m hoping to do some new holiday recipes/diy’s (since I haven’t posted any in awhile) so hopefully I can get some good holiday posts in this month!

House Goals -

Last month, I noted that we are wanting to move in the near future so we needed to work on little house issues, like getting rid of clutter, painting and changing light fixtures. Success! I shared some little home updates recently which included painting our front door and replacing our front porch light fixture and dining room chandelier. We also had our bedroom and hallway painted (I’ll be sharing photos soon).

December Goals –

We need to continue with cleaning, organizing and decluttering. I doubt we’ll put any more money into the house at this point so it’s just about getting things looking nice for when we are ready to list our house. And of course I need to do our Christmas decorating too!

Life Goals -

Last month, I set a goal to get better at saving money and work on a family budget. Success/fail. We have been doing better about paying off debt and saving but we still haven’t sat down to make an official budget. Oops. For November, I also wanted to get back into a workout schedule. Success. I haven’t been working out a ton, but have been better about making it to the gym and doing some home workouts. I sit at work allll day, so it’s important for me to get moving.

December Goals –

For December, I’m aiming to save some cash and not crazy overspend on Christmas shopping. I also want to do some fun holiday things, like go the Christmas market downtown and go check out some Christmas light displays. Things get so busy this time of year, but I want to make it a priority to go do some fun festive things. Oh and I want to use my new Kitchenaid mixer to make some tasty desserts too! I am not a fan of baking (mainly because I hate measuring things), but I want to try to get better at it.

So there ya go – those are my goals for Decemember. How did you do with your goals and/or are you making goals for this month? If you missed it, here are some of my fave posts from November -
