September Recap

I know I usually do this on the first or second of each month, but things have been a little bit hectic and so here is the recap for September.

Here was my list:

  • Clean
  • Continue at least two walks a day
  • Continue counting calories
  • Increase my water intake to two 40 oz tumblers a day, at least
  • Get blood work done
  • Tidy up my desk
  • Pack things we aren’t using in a tote bin
  • Order tea light candles
  • Clean up the living room
  • Finish up a few art projects
  • Blog about: my family reunion, Anthony’s Dad’s visit, the wedding, house sitting, our visit to my cousin’s cottage
  • August book review
  • Order Anthony’s Birthday gift and plan out his birthday
  • Begin planning for Valeria’s birthday in October
  • Start my next novel
  • House sit for Anthony’s sister and her husband

Well 6 out of 16 isn’t too bad to be fair, it could have been much worse! But I’m going to re-arrange a few things and start my list from scratch, including a few necessary self-care items.

The few fall craft projects I had to do were completed and a great success, especially my cousin’s wreath I had made for her and a hodge podge cyclops mummy head. Still need to order those candles which will be done today.

Anthony’s family events were great and house sitting was a nice glimpse into what it would be like when we have our own home. His birthday was also a success, having ended up with two little birthday celebrations.

Valeria’s birthday is all set in motion, I’ve gotten all the decorations (minus the balloons), cake is ordered and since it falls on Canadian Thanksgiving, she will be enjoying her first ever turkey feast cooked by mommy. It should be a great time and pictures to come!

The Perfect Neighbours book review is out, if you haven’t read it please take a peek and I started a new novel, however I’m struggling a bit with the writing style, so I’m debating starting a new book and shelving this one for the time being. I’ll let ya know.

Otherwise, September was a busy month for us and October doesn’t seem to be letting up any time soon. Will keep you posted.

Ciao!
