October Goals Revisited


At the beginning of October I blogged about my goals for the month. Since then October seems to have completely whizzed by, and now it’s November I can completely focus on all things Christmas! While I’ve been really busy this past month, I’ve completely forgotten what I set out to achieve in October, so now’s a good a time as any to look what and see if I’ve achieved my goals!


Lose half a stone
Ha no. I found myself struggling with my Slimming World group, and felt like I had no support at all, so decided to leave. I’ve now changed group, run by the lovely Em, so I’m hoping things will change soon!


Read two books
I actually managed this one! I haven’t read a book properly in what feels like a long time, so to have managed to read two this month feels like an achievement!


Get into a regular gym routine
Nope. With me and a friend I go to the gym with having been ill a lot this month, our personal training sessions have been delayed, and I haven’t managed to get to the gym any other time. 


Finish my current knitting project
Sadly not. With a super busy month, and a lot of my evenings spent either at the gym or doing some extra work, I haven’t had much of a chance to do my knitting. Hoping to work on lots more crafts with Christmas coming up!


Try some new recipes 
I have! I’ve cooked some really lovely things over the past month, and I’ve developed a new love for my slow cooker and making curries!


If you had any goals for October have you managed to achieve them?

Maybe I’m worried someone might need to urgently contact me, or I might miss a really hilarious tweet someone’s done if I don’t refresh my feed 400 times. I used to always have really bad luck with…

  • Serenata Flowers Review & Giveaway

    I absolutely love receiving flowers, probably more for the fact I receive them so rarely, it makes them feel that bit more special. I just love how a colourful bouquet can instantly brighten up the room and can smell gorgeous. Recently Serenata Flowers got in touch to see if I’d be interested in receiving  a bouquet of their flowers, and well of course I said…

    So if you weren’t aware, I turned the grand age of 21 on the 14th May (at 5.11am if we’re going to be exact…). My birthday sort of spread out over many days this year, with the Saturday before (12th) having a night out with the uni friends, and a surprise visit from my best…

    I haven’t been on a holiday for years, and I mean years. The last proper holiday I had was with my parents (who paid because I’m poor) to Devon in 2014, and before that was… well, in 2009. I’ve had the odd day trip out, and many many trips up to Sunderland to visit Chris’s…
