liz loving life.
i'm bess...or liz, or elizabeth, depending on how you know me. lover of life, collector of thoughts and songs and Sharpies. Can't make up my mind between Folly and Raleigh...I love them both. I think that the most important meal of the day is that first cup of coffee and a good conversation, even if it's just with yourself. I live for the first day of Spring when you don't even need a jacket in the morning, Wolfpack football, and fireworks. Just taking it one day at a time and trying to enjoy everything that my little life has to offer...

As I go through my Google Reader feeds this morning, I’m noticing that a lot of my favorite bloggers are setting goals for November. While I always intend to do this, I’m not so good at the whole goal-setting thing. Until today. I have decided to set a few goals for this November. Living along and working from home, I have found that I have a lot more time on my hands (no more commute, a lot of downtime to spend with myself), so I should be able to use that new-found time to achieve some goals that have been on my mind for awhile now.
November Goals
- Update my resume. I think that a resume should be a living document, not one that is only updated when looking for a new job. That being said, it’s time to add what I’ve been doing for the past (almost) two years to that dusty old document.
- Read five books. Now that I can actually attend book club monthly instead of being jealous that I’m missing it and the fact that I have a Kindle (thanks, Mom!), I have spent a lot of my free time reading. I’m averaging about a book each week, but because I have vacation in November for Thanksgiving, I think I can knock out five books.
- Start working out regularly again. This is one thing that I have not done very well since my move. In Charleston, I was going to barre class on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday mornings pretty regularly, and I definitely miss it. I have a workout room here at my apartment, and I just need to take advantage of it. I just hate getting sweaty—then I have to redo my hair!
- Keep going with Season of Soup. Leah is definitely one of my favorite bloggers, and because soup is one of my favorite things to cook, I want to keep going with making a new soup each week. I have actually made a new soup recipe every week since mid-September, and eventually I will get around to blogging about it.
I guess we’ll see how this whole goal-setting things goes. I hope that I’ll be able to reflect back on them (with good results) on December 1. Anyone else setting goals for November?
