1. Get to at least 4 yoga classes (health/fitness)
2. Write at least 5 blog posts (this one counts!) (adultiness)
Close but no cigar on #1; I went three times this month. This post gets me to my blogging goal!
Health:
Pros: Half marathon training is chugging along - got in my 10+ miler this past weekend and tapering a bit from here. The race is October 19th. After that it's the Wilderness Run in November!
Con: Training for a half marathon does not mean I can eat a carton of Ben & Jerry's whenever I feel like it.
Financial:
Josh and I were both looking at our spending in Mint yesterday. We spend a stupid amount of money on food - both on groceries and on restaurants. September seemed to be an especially awful month for both of us.
My Stitchfix this month was really good so I kept everything. The good thing about this is I got some fun new clothes, but as a result I ended up way over my usual spending in this area.
Work:
I've really been struggling here lately. My disengagement leads me to go out to lunch more often and take breaks to get coffee, etc. It's a bad cycle because then I spend more, too. Every little thing has been getting on my nerves - annoying co-workers, nitpicking from the boss. Things that shouldn't really bother me. I need to be more positive at work. In the meantime, I just found out today that a job I applied for is now moving forward and I am interviewing for it on Thursday.
October Goals
1. Health/fitness: No Ben & Jerry's purchases in October. Successfully finish the KC Half Marathon - ideally as fast as (or faster than) my spring marathon.
2. Financial: No clothing/accessories/shoes purchases in October. Stay within Mint budget for food & dining.
3. Work: Positive attitude! Positive attitude! Positive attitude! Prepare for interviews but also stay engaged in my current role.
