Bookish and Not So Bookish Goals for July
July is my birthday month, and I've had some plans in place. Due to the nature of my job, fall is VERY busy, so I want to soak up the sun while I can. Here's what I've started (and would like to) accomplish by the end of July:
July is my birthday month, and I've had some plans in place. Due to the nature of my job, fall is VERY busy, so I want to soak up the sun while I can. Here's what I've started (and would like to) accomplish by the end of July:
- Camp NaNoWriMo-Write 3,000 words!
- Take weekend trips with friends-July 4th weekend in Ocean City is in the books; next up, visiting friends in Boston!
- Swim-my parents' new house has a pool, so I've already been swimming more this summer than the past several years combined, and I hope to keep it up! I even bought a new swimsuit for the first time in 15 years.
- Spend a lot of time outside-The beach helped, I've been weeding outside, and walking my dogs. And wearing plenty of sunscreen!
- Read at least 10 books--In previous years, I've averaged 4-5 books a month; this year has been more like 8-9. Since I have some time off this month, I think I can get in at least 10!
- Meditate
- Dance
- Celebrate-have a birthday party! I haven't had a party since my 25th, but a) my 30th is definitely worth a party and b) ANY excuse to celebrate. Seriously. Life is short. We should have fun.
What are your goals for July? Do you set goals for big birthdays (or every birthday)?
