April Goals

4/05/12

This post is coming a few days late, but still within the first week of the month which I consider a win! April is a particular favorite because it’s my birthday month (in fact, this year I share my getting-older with the celebration of Christ’s Resurrection!) and a generally lovely time of year, as the weather is usually in an upswing and really embracing the idea of Spring, by now.

So, what’s on the agenda for this, the loveliest-of-months? Well, firstly, let’s see what March held!

PERSONAL

– Workout 3-4 times a week (totally blew the first half of the month because of family visiting, but the second half was much more on target!)
– Drink at least 1 Nalgene bottle of water per day (did pretty terrible with this…. :-/ )
Finish 1st Samuel, start 2nd Samuel
Start a fictional book already on my shelf  (well, I ended up with non-fiction, but I’m currently reading Tuesdays With Morrie)
Have coffee/girl time at least 4 times
Try out at least 2 new recipes, of any kind
Send at least 2 handwritten letters

BUSINESS

Design new sample album
Order samples of packaging ideas to decide what I like best
– Submit 1-2 weddings/shoots for publication
Blog 3-4 times per week
Launch new blog series!  (Yay for Wardrobe Wednesdays!)
– Write a concise “mission statement”
Cancel Pictage & switch over entirely to SmugMug

Yay! I’d say March was rather successful, and I’m excited to continue trying to tackle some of the things that didn’t get accomplished, this month!
