Goals for December

December 14, 2015

Goals for December

Even though we're halfway through December already (how...?), I wanted to share my goals for the month. I've always been a list person, with separate to do lists for the day and the week, and major to dos for the month.

Quiet Lately

Things have been a little quiet around here lately because I'm in midterms for school. I decided to take 3 classes this semester because I'm finishing my MBA (while still working full-time), and that may have been a bit much to take on. Right now, I'm looking toward the end of next week as a beacon of light. Just gotta get there!Popular around here this week:Lessons from our foster dogMy reviews on Stitch Fix, True & Co, and Trunk ClubTalking about travel and ride sharingAlso, …
