August Wrap Up

August Goals

Personal: 
Read 5+ Books

  • "Trickster's Choice" Tamora Pierce
  • "Trickster's Queen" Tamora Pierce
  • "Trapped at the Altar" Jane Feather
  • "Modern Patchwork" Elizabeth Hartman
  • "Quilting Modern" Jacquie Gering and Katie Pederson

Average 15000+ steps per week day (with Saturdays at 10,000-13,000)
1 trip  

New Projects / Pinterest Challenge: 
1+ new recipe

My Projects:
Mail the Unbirthday package
Birthday present for the Nephew (by the 15th)
Deliver Welcome Baby W package
Finish 2 quilt tops: Random Reflections 2 of 2, Christmas quilt
Baste 1 quilt
Finish quilting 1 quilt: the xo charm pack quilt
Bind 1 quilt: smores love blocks

Grown Up Junk:
Schedule next cat/vet appointment
Replacement windshield for the car


House Stuff: 
Dining space update: shop for chairs or stools postponed. As long as we've got the newly larger pantry cabinet and the litter box in the kitchen, there just isn't also room for an eating surface. Except over the top of the litter box. Doesn't sound very appetizing. Maybe later, after vet's appointments and the like are over and Momo is back to being his regular, happy to use the box self. 
Replace black baker's rack in office with something more suited to the space
Continue sweeping every other day, cleaning bathrooms once a week
Mouse traps under the house
Make a plan for the 'ugly wall' in the master bedroom
Begin rearranging art in office


Was it just me, or did August fly by? I guess working 14 hour days will do that to a person... and the weather is significantly cooler on my morning walks these days, but I just want to freeze time for a few days. It seems like this year is vanishing so quickly and I just want a day or two to savor it.
