Murdocks Mama: Happy October + Goals

FIRST THINGS FIRST -- A September recap...

SUCCESSES

Call/FaceTime someone each week -- My sister, my mom, my sister in laws
Invite someone over {dinner, dessert, anything!} -- yes! I had some friends over for dessert when Adam was in Canada {that seems so long ago now!}
Catch up on One Line A Day
Paint my nails -- twice, not terrible, not great
Find a landscaper! -- The BEST check off this list! I'm so pumped to have the first phase of our landscaping done!
Re-start weekly Sunday Prep -- Check!
Refresh front porch -- I'm still waiting on C to power wash it for me, but the rest is done, so I'll call that a win.

FAILURES

Take 8 walks -- BAD, like so bad! This isn't even a hard thing, but in my defense my surgery didn't go well and I haven't been feeling 100%
Have a date night with Adam -- UGH! I tried! I even had a reservation at a Michelin rated restaurant, but they Cullyn's makeup football game was scheduled for that night, sigh.
Post something on social every day -- Well, I did this, until I got sick and then I pretty much just fell off the face of the earth. So, no.
Send a newsletter -- Fail
Start CLIA training -- Double fail!

BIG THINGS THIS MONTH

+ Jordyn turns 14 {!!!} I know I say this every year, but it seems impossible to me that we've been parenting for 14 years! Also, I'm so thankful kids in Florida don't get their permit until 15 {it's 14 in Iowa}

+ Adam & I celebrate 16 years married! I cannot wait to celebrate on two {new to us!} islands!! Super thankful my in-laws have agreed to come watched the kids for the second October in a row so we could getaway for a little bit!

+ A bunch of family is coming to visit!! :) My entire family {except my BIL} are coming and then right after they leave my in laws arrive! I say it all the time, but I just LOVE that we have family {& friends} that actually want to come visit us. To be fair, Florida is a great place to visit in October! ;)
