November 2023 Goals

Sharing November 2023 goals and recapping October goals.

October seemed to fly by and it led me to being intentional in some ways and not so intentional in other ways. I am jumping into November with more of a focus as I want to focus on consistency.

Let’s recap October goals:

Monthly Action Items

• Go through photos on my phone July-September. Made it through July.
• Read 1 fiction book and 1 nonfiction. I read Something Wilder, which I loved, and need to finish Why am I Like This.
• Start the baby books. I looked into where I wanted to make them.
• Do a family fun activity. Yes! We carved pumpkins and went to a local corn maze.
• Set up ManyChat for Instagram. I realized the free version does not work well and am not sure I want to pay for it, so putting this on hold.
• Finish the setup of woocommerce shop on the website. It is set up! Now add products to the shop.
• Finish designing the new advent product. I am working on this still.
