I love October. Not nearly as much as September, since it's my birthday month, but I do love October and fall. I know I'm not alone in this, because plenty of other bloggers have been commenting on the same thing! So, what are my goals for this month?
1. Cook at least 4 times a week. This could be tough, since I haven't been cooking hardly at all lately.
2. Register for whatever tests I need to take to get into school, and complete my application. I'm not sure if this is a lofty goal or not, and it won't be fully complete until I take the WEST-E and WEST-B in November, but we will see.
3. Finish sanding and staining my bedside table. This turned out to be a much bigger task than I thought it would be.
4. Donate at least 2 boxes of stuff to Goodwill. I do love a good purge.
5. Make at least $100 babysitting and/or on Ebay and Craigslist. I set this goal at $100 because I have 2 babysitting jobs next week and should get $60 total so setting it for $50 doesn't seem fair :)
I think that's plenty for this month!
Are you setting goals? What are your goals?





I'm a 27 year old, newly married, newly living in Washington, librarian trying to find a job in a library. Meanwhile I'm working as a office assistant while I figure out how to live my new life as a wife.
Geoff, my wonderful, caring husband works with computers and, in his free time, plays with video games, lounges on the couch and cooks with sourdough.
Clarabelle and Hermione are our babies! Hermione, who came to Megg as a kitten, loves playing with fur mice and bottle caps. Clarabelle's hobbies include sleeping, lying in the sun and playing with straws. 
Geoff and Megg met through a mutual friend and spent 4 years dating long distance. They were finally able to live in the same zipcode after what seemed like forever when they got married on January 2, 2010! Soon after they bought a house and have been enjoying the Pacific Northwest together while being both newlyweds and new homeowners!
