WOW!!!
I can’t believe it’s already October!! This is one of my favorite times of the year as it means that holiday season is right around the corner!!! We are all a little bit more thankful, a bit more merrier, and, well at least for me, a little bit more broke from all the Christmas presents, coffee, sweater and pumpkins I buy! Lol…just kidding…maybe :p
But with October, comes one of my most busiest months of the holiday season for work! Here in California, October is their “Indian Summer”, so the majority of my holiday sessions are happening this month!! So, having everything written down and lots and lots of coffee is in store for October!
So, I wanted to start sharing with you guys some of my personal and work goals each month with you! That way, you can help me be accountable, and see what I got going on as well!!
Personal:
- Workout 4xs a week
- Get Christmas Gifts purchased ( every year since my kids were born I put their gifts on layaway at Toys R Us! I am less stressed during the holiday season, miss the crowds, and my kids usually get everything that they want! I love planning early!)
- Finish Setting up our house ( 2 weeks here and still in boxes 🙁 )
- 49ers game!! Great seats and my first football game, they just need to get their game together!
- Make a fall wreath for my door!
- Fall break here is next week for a week! (don’t get me started on WHY these kids get a week of fall break here, and a week of thanksgiving break, and TWO and a half weeks of Christmas break, and TWO WEEKS of spring break…what am I going to do with these kids!!)
Business:
- Book 10 Sessions
- Pass our Business cards to vendors
- Finish updating website
- Holiday Cards!! Time to get those purchased to beat the rush!!
- Book a wedding!
So there you have it! My goals for October!! Before I go and down another cup of coffee, since today is Thursday, you are getting two blog posts in one as I also wanted to introduce you to
Just so much new stuff right?!?! Well, Thoughtful Thursday is a new blog series that I will be doing from here on out! I will post a quote that I liked, talk about a topic that I’m interested, share personal things, anything that is on my mind that day! It breaks up the monotony of photography posts, and hopefully inspires someone else!
I really love this video and its meaning! I have converted this to an MP3, and I listen to it almost everyday, on my runs, in the car! It hits me every time.
Some of my favorite quotes from this:
” ‘But’ is a dream killer….”
” Even if I experience defeat and failure, that does not make me a failure.”
” There will always be tomorrow. Oh no…there are no guarantees that you’re gonna show up tomorrow!”
I hope you enjoy this!
Have a wonderful October!!!!
<3 Vanessa
