Autumn Goals + Season Favorites

Today I wanted to share a few goals that I have for the next few months. When I think about all that I want to get done vs. all that needs to get done for each month coming up, it makes more sense to just write a collective post. I wrote out goals for September so we'll revisit those and see how I did, and then dive into the forever growing list of things I want accomplished by Christmas! (Plus keep scrolling for some of my seasonal favorites and a coupon code!)

Let's take a look at September:

Blog Goals:

- Join in on the Blogtember Challenge and stick with it (For the most part!)

- Make a new "about me" page (not yet)

- Finalize an advertising program for A Tiny Traveler (Almost done!)

- Take better quality photos for posts rather than iPhone photos (Mostly...)

Life Goals:

- Finish planning our anniversary trip to Brooklyn, NY (Yes! And it was so fun!)

- Get more exercise. (Somewhat...Getting into a routine is hard)

- Read one entire book before the month is over. (no...again haha)

- Spend more intentional time with my husband. (Yes, and it has been lovely)

- Create a better household budget + cleaning routine (No... and we seriously need to)

- Make a schedule for working from home...be productive! (Yes!)

Business Goals:

- Establish Oakmoss Collective as an LLC (All the paperwork and payments are in! Eeep!)

- Get the shop up and running for Oakmoss Collective (Almost ready)

- Prep for the booth at the Deeply Rooted Retreat (Yes!)

- Add a few more prints to my etsy shop and prep for Christmas sales (Not yet)

As you can see, the outcome was about 50/50. Not great, but not terrible! 

 

Blog Goals:

- Update the "About Me" page

- Finalize sponsorship program

- Write consistently on the blog through the busy season coming up

Life Goals:

- Get a household budget set up 

- Get more exercise

- Plan the menu & timeline for Friendsgiving in November

- Set up our home office

Business Goals:

- Finish making products for the soft launch of Oakmoss Collective's shop at The Deeply Rooted Retreat

- Consistently write and post and edit for the Oakmoss website

- Reach out to more brands that I love for collaborations

Okay so on to the good stuff. I am super excited to share a few things I have been LOVING as the weather cools down and the season gets more and more crisp! The first is kind of a no-brainer: pumpkin donuts and hot coffee. I recently got the chance to meet an online friend, Karlie, and she and her boyfriend gave us a bag of coffee from Honest Coffee Roasters. I'm loving it! I am also really excited to start wearing my new boots when the temps get lower.

I also absolutely love my new hat from Kneedles & Leaves Knitwear! Its so cozy and she has so many colors and styles to choose from, and from now until October 22 you can save 10% by using my code 'SIMPLY10'!

What about you? What are your favorites for the season?
