Summer 2015 ends calendar-wise in a few days. Here's how I did with my seasonal goals:
1. Make homemade cinnamon ice cream. Made on 7/11 and sweet Jesus it was delicious.
3. Have lunch at Pizzeria Vetri. Lunch with Tara on August 4.
4. Read an Agatha Christie Hercule Poirot book. I read The Mysterious Affair at Styles on vacation at the end of June.
5. Purge and organize: utility closet. Done - second weekend in August.
6. Visit Spruce Street Harbor Park. Done on September 4.
7. Visit The Clay Studio. Visited on July 28.
8. Conquer fears: cook on the grill and swim in the lake. I've been grilling like a champ, mofos! I made myself do it once a week to truly conquer the fear. I was in the lake on two different weekends on floats but not swimming. I'm counting it.
9. Increase weights and maintain exercise schedule. Fail. I actually had a falter with weights in general and dipped down to twice a week for the fuck it phase. I battled back into my routine but am still not as fluid with it as I was going into the summer. I'm working on it though.
10. Watch a sunrise and sunset in a beach town in the same day. Sunday 6/28 in Emerald Isle.
Did you make summer goals? How did you do?
Happy happy birthday today to my longest time friend Jen. We've been friends for going on 36 years. And tomorrow to my youngest brother Sean, who turns 21. Be safe and enjoy your first truly legal beer, brother. Love you both!
I am travelling, please forgive delayed replies to comments. I'll catch you on the flip side.
You did well! Happy and enjoyable goals for the most part. Keep those vacation pictures coming. Continued safe and happy travels!
ReplyDeleteLove. Your. Momma
i think you did well!! i've been killing my mini weekly goals but then got preoccupied with my craft room so i'm back at it when i get back from the weekend.
ReplyDeleteYou did great! I didn't really make any so I succeeded in winging it all summer long. Perhaps Fall is a good time to start back on the goal train for me!
ReplyDeleteKickass! You did great. I was looking at some old goal posts and missing doing them. What are the chances the themed goal linkup will return?
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your travels!!!
Great job on your goals! I have to make cinnamon ice cream like this weekend now...also I too purged many items and will be selling them this weekend at my garage sale! Hope you are enjoying your vacation!
ReplyDeleteYou did awesome girl! And that cinnamon ice cream sounds amazing :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday, enjoy the rest of your vacay <3
Great job on your summer goals!! Hope your vacation is going well.
ReplyDeletePretty sure you nailed it this summer. I don't even want to review what my goals are because I know I didn't come close. Also, did you post the cinnamon ice cream recipe? Because I feel like that since it's cinnamon I can totally transition that into a fall treat.
ReplyDeleteWow! You did great! (and lake swimming is actually quite pleasant. Wear footwear if the bottom creeps you out.)
ReplyDeleteNice work!!! You nailed so many! I'm really dying to make cinnamon ice cream by the way. Enjoy your weekend of your trip, according to Instagram- you're surrounded by beauty!
ReplyDeleteWow, good for you! I'm feeling so...unaccomplished. I love the idea of making a list like this, though - an attainable one - not like, "Go to the gym every day" which is laughable. But there are so many things I always say I want to do & I'd probably be more inclined to do them if I made a list to stick to. Congrats! Sounds like an eventful summer.
ReplyDeleteYou kicked ass with your goals!! Hope you are having a blast!
ReplyDeletei didn't make ice cream this year. i gotta redo my life. i cannot believe it. you however did great with your goals.
ReplyDeleteI'm loving your pictures of your trip so far. Go Pro for the win! I sucked at my summer goals, but I still had a great summer so I'm calling the whole thing "a fuck it phase." Maybe i'll be more realistic for my fall goals. Have fun!!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on achieving all your goals except 1 and that one is completely understandable with all your traveling which seems to throw off your schedule, at least it does to me. Have fun on your trip!
ReplyDeletewow, you did awesome! even if you failed with the weights goal, hey it's summer. you totally kicked butt everywhere else.
ReplyDeleteYou killed it, Steph! That's not fair to the rest of us ;).
ReplyDeleteCome grill me some shit.
ReplyDeleteWay to kick serious ass on this goal list! Hope you're having an awesome time on your travels—keep the Instas coming! :)
ReplyDeleteYou killed it!
ReplyDeleteWhat a productive summer! Good for you! Hope you are enjoying your trip. Can't wait to read about it when you get back!
ReplyDeleteLook at you! Definitely did great with your summer goals :) Have fun wherever you are lovely and be safe Steph! -Iva
ReplyDeleteYou got a ton done! Wishing you happy and safe travels :)
ReplyDeleteYou did a good job! Maybe I should think of some fall goals.
ReplyDeleteWow, you kicked some major ass with these goals! I'm especially impressed that you managed to conquer a couple of your fears. It can be so hard to push yourself out of your comfort zone, so that's seriously awesome.
ReplyDeleteI need to try making homemade ice cream. I've seen a ton of recipes on Pinterest, and they all look pretty simple. I have no idea what's stopping me from at least attempting it.
