August has felt like a big month:
Finishing a large writing deadline.
Planning for 9 days of Zack away on a work trip (he left yesterday morning).
Setting my calendar so I know exactly what to work on once it’s time to work.
Picking a new book club book. And, discussing this book at book club!
Reading this book “just for fun”.
Outlining a new idea.
Craving comfort soup, despite the recent humidity.
Reviewing our financial goals (aka: get out of debt yesterday!).
Recording a new podcast and chatting about “5 business tips”.
A much-needed haircut.
A week-long visit with my older brother.
Pep talk phone calls with a trusted friend.
Scheduling in more margin so I can be me.
What have you been up to this month, and what are you most looking forward to in September? For me, I’d have to say I’m looking forward to the launch of a big project. (It’s going to be so great!)
Sounds like you’ve had a great month, Maggie! I can’t wait to read some of those books you mentioned! My vacation is coming up next week and I think they will be perfect to bring along to read on the beach!
Have a great time, Laura! You have to let me know which ones you finish :)
I read 4 books this month.. including Simply Tuesday. I’m feeling all sorts of accomplished!
…as you should! #bravo :)
I am reading For the Love by Jen Hatmaker while sitting at practices for the boys. Staying at practices forces me to slow down and read.
September means schedule. Back to school and back to routine. Evening games and practices for the boys (football and soccer). Community in the village is tight and it tends to get tighter at football games.
