September in Review

Philippians 3:14  “I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.”

The end of September and I am finally feeling like we have finished most of the goals of the summer!  It is still rather warm here, highs regularly above 80 and our air is still running. Last week brought a tropical storm through the area so lets hope for some cooler temperatures soon!

Groceries- Budget $975   $ 1050 Goal Not Met I will say that my grocery list is empty and it probably is around $200 less if I would remove the Christmas items and windshield wipers from my Costco trip this weekend. But I am over.

Blogging- 15 posts per month. This is post number 9.  I do plan to get up a post tomorrow with our menu plan.  This is a significant improvement from last month.

Exercise- Nope none….Pain is a limiting factor.

Summer Goals
1. Kitchen Floor- Complete with a nightmare story. I can’t share due to my agreement. But I was not happy.
2. Bathroom Floor (Matt responsible) – Complete!  We have also managed to build shelving and move most of the items out of our bedroom!
3. New to me car- Purchased and it is the nicest car I have ever owned.
4. Back Deck- The old deck is gone and we are very hopeful to have a new one by the end of October.
5.  Purchase and process a whole cow including canning broth and ground hamburger. DONE!
6. Restock freezer with 100 meals and at least 50 breakfast burritos and 52 packs of bagels. I am going to make this as a success!!!! I am actually surprised and pleased with how much food we currently have on hand!  Added a couple of meals this week so I am counted this as complete!

This will be the last time I report on our summer goals as we did manage to get most completed after all.

I am very hopeful to find my life groove again soon!  It does help to have the house back in order for the first time since May!
