August Goals


I know, it's August ... Already! Before we know it Fall will be here and I'm kind of okay with that. This summer has been brutally hot and I'm kind of ready for it to be over. Needless to say, we still have a few months of summer to get through so here's some things I want to get done in August.

1. Have a girls night or a girls lunch: It's been SO long since I've seen a lot of my girl friends and that is just not okay. Even though I'm out of town for some of August and I work ALL the time, I really need some girl time so August is the time to schedule that in!

2. To work out for 1 hour (at least) 3 times a week: Technically, this is a challenge that my work is really pushing so I'm participating, but it's also a goal I'd like to set as I've been really sporadic on my workouts and can come up with any excuse not to do it. This will give me a little push.

3. Read at least 2 books on my week off of work: You guys know this often becomes a goal because I can never seem to sit down and read when I have so much else going on. With my week off I want to get in all the reading I can.

July flew by and I did not do well goals wise. I did yoga maybe a total of 3 times and was not productive in getting a night routine down. I did, however, start drinking more water again (helped by the fact that we've been living in an oven the past month) so there is that. What are you guys looking forward to accomplishing in August? XO

  4. I wish we had a brutally hot summer here, hon :) I will get a week of it when we head off to Dubai (can't wait!!!). I am ready for the fall and everything lovely that comes with it: pumpkin spiced everything, oversized scarves & cuddly nights in :)
    You're a star with your workouts, babes. I skipped on the gym tonight & having some major guilt about it lol. Will have to stick to a schedule. Also, I definitely want to make time to read more <3

    1. Hahaha don't you always want what you can't have? I'm not a heat person, I'd love a cooler summer if I could hahaha. YAY, that will be so fun for you guys! I agree, I'm all about the cozy fall nights, all the flavors and just the look and feel of fall, so good! I am so not great with my workouts, but I've stepped it up this month so I am proud of that! Thanks so much for stopping in my sweet friend, hope you're doing well! XO -Kim

  5. The second I clicked on your page I immediately said 'WOW' and showed my boyfriend how great your logo is! I loveeee the design and layout of your blog and this post is fab! I'm with you on trying to read more books. I've recently got back into the swing of reading and I'm really enjoying it! Thanks for the inspiration.
