August 19 Goals

Crikey can’t quite believe it’s August 19 already!! Month 8 of the year – how did that happen! Anyway, I have been a bit slack on goal setting recently but without further ado, let us dive into my August 19 Goals (I keep typing Golas – brain working at a different speed to my fingers lol).

• Weight loss – I am aiming for 1lb per week in August, I have some hols from work and will be sticking to my 80% healthy rule (see post here) so whilst I would like more I will be happy with 1lb per week
• Exercise – no big goals here but I would really like to do the stairs every day at work (don’t laugh its 5 floors!!) and walking 10,000 steps per day. I am also aiming to jog or do Beachbody 3 times per week.
• Streaming – I am going to try and do more gaming and possibly stream some (down with the kids!!)
• Cooking – I am going to try and make one new dish per week – any suggestions let me know in the comments!!
• Journal – I am going to try and use my bullet journal **. Its ages since I did it properly and I know it helps me to focus. I am not going made but aim to have my to-do list, habit tracker and meal planner plus my weeklies.
• Blogging – I am going to aim to do 1-2 posts per week like I have in July
• Try and go camping or on day trips
• Finally, finish sorting my desk – I have new monitors etc set up, just need storage for my pens and note
• Attempt a couple of “date” nights – feels like years since we were in Italy and we haven’t had a night out on our own since so I really need to make an effort to do this!

Review of July 19

July was a really busy month, we were crazy busy at work. Went to Norfolk camping, had a nice day out to York and celebrated my Mums 70th. Diet and exercise wise I was rubbish. I did a volunteer day at a farm which was great fun and has made me realised I need to do more manual jobs (that involve power tools lol)

Blog wise I managed to post at least once a week and I am really trying to work on my social media. I still find Instagram hard work, but I will keep chipping away at it!!

July was also a month of really mixed weather – cold and wet in parts, scorchio in others!

That’s my review of July 19 and August 19 Goals – as always – wish me luck
