Back at it again

Hi Hi Hi!!! Hello Blogsphere.... I have missed you all dearly!

It's November and after a long break--- I think I am ready to jump back into the blogging world. I know I briefly blogged for a little in September with Bailey's Blogtember challenges but I really want to blog more intentionally and have this act as my journal of some sorts--- a place to keep memories and experiences.

I guess its only proper if I fill you in on what I have been up to the past few months. I think the best way is through photos; I love capturing everyday moments, things that excite me or  I think are beautiful. Snapshots of everyday life that I want to remember.

The past few months have been rough but I have always loved looking back on my camera roll and seeing the images I capture. Life isn't always perfect but I always try to look for the good in each day. 

I found this quote really inspiring, just at the perfect moment when I needed it . I hope this can help someone going through a rough time.

My intention for this month is to blog more and to enjoy it. I am excited to try to share more this month. Stay tune for my November Goals.

 

Glad you made it DECEMBER, we waited all year for you!

November was a fun month, I had a lot of adventures and celebrated the start of the holidays. Lets check out how I did with my goals for November:

Read 2 books// half completed
I ended up reading 1 book this month that took me a full month to finish. The Rosie Project was not as good as the hype was. I was super disappointed.

List of Daily Gratitude//completed
Every night after dinner, my parents and write down something we are grateful for and put it in the ‘gratitude jar’. I love seeing it fill up during the month. 

Watch what I Eat//sorta completed
I have been doing this almost consistently. Lets face it sometimes, munchkins look better than peaches. I have definitely limited my snacking and sugar intake.

Workout 3x Week//completed 
I completed this again for the third month in a row. Yoga twice a week and my personal training has been a lot of fun. I definitely feel as if I am getting strong each week especially when I attempt crow or tripod. I will continue this throughout December.

A photo a day//completed
I completed this and I absolutely love seeing the end product. Take a look!

November was a great month and I am pretty excited about December. This month  I have decided to keep it simple with my goals; with the holidays just around the corner, I want to have more time to enjoy the beautiful holiday season and to have many festive adventures.

Keeping with the tradition,  I will end my post with my December Goals:

 

Workout 3x a week

Take a photo a day

Read 2 books

Experience as many holiday activities and moments I possibly can 

What are your goals for December? What are you most looking forward to?

Goodbye October, Hello November

Here is a review of my October goals:

Completed:

*Workout 3x a week

     Yoga twice a week &  personal training once a week made me a very happy girl this month

*Take one photo a day

This is such a fun project for me. I love trying to be creative with my photos

Work in Progress  :

*Read 4 books

I am half way through The Rosie Project; two more books await me on my nightstand
 
*Organize my closet 

I think I was having too much fun enjoying the beautiful weather to stay inside. This is still to be started
 
*Cut down on Sugar and Carbs 

This was sorta accomplish, but very hard to do in October, I will be continuing this into November

 

October was a transition month, I was feeling a lot better and I was out doing fun fall activities on the weekends. Even though I did not complete all my goals, I think I realized that sometimes you just have to go out and have fun, experience life. I think I accomplished more than  I realize.

Keeping with the tradition, My November goals are :

*read 2 books

*Write down daily Gratitude

*What what I eat-become more accountable

*Workout 3x a week

*Take one photo a day

  I am excited to see what happens in NOVEMBER!!

What are your goals for November??
