So it’s August, my goals list for July took a back seat this month with all the weddings I had.\u00a0 I had so much going on that most of these things will go on the August list.\u00a0 5 out of 11 isn’t too bad right?:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Add client testimonials to my website- if you are a past client email me a few words about your experience and I will add them to my site.\u00a0 Since this is almost complete I want to get this done first!<\/del> *This is done and you can see them here<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  2. clean all the windows in my house, that I don’t have to climb a 20 foot ladder for, inside and out!\u00a0 *Definitely didn’t get to this!<\/li>\n
  3. organize the basement shelves\u00a0 *not done either!<\/li>\n
  4. remove the old ditsy wallpaper from the downstairs bath and paint the walls.\u00a0 Since I didn’t get to this in May or June or now July it may still be here in September or later:)\u00a0 *I think this will permanently be on the list:)<\/li>\n
  5. go to the beach at least once and it’s edited to add** wear a bathing suit, sit in a beach chair and go in the water!\u00a0 Working on the beach is not going to count this time.<\/del> *Done and we had a blast, even though the water was freezing!<\/li>\n
  6. order a 7×7 inch sample wedding parent album to show my clients\u00a0 *hopefully in August<\/li>\n
  7. order a canvas of Chris and I for our living room- doing this today!<\/del> can’t wait to show you photos in a blog post\u00a0 *ordered and received but not hung up yet<\/li>\n
  8. add some music to my website\u00a0 *hopefully in August<\/li>\n
  9. purchase\/license 2 more songs for slideshow music\u00a0 *hopefully in August<\/li>\n
  10. purchase some type of file folder organizing system- paperwork is out of control over here!\u00a0 Thinking of going to the container store which can be a bad idea for a person like me.\u00a0 I heart organization:)<\/del> *I did get a small filing box and folders so it’s a start!<\/li>\n
  11. blog minimum 3 times a week<\/del> *Done!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    For August I would love to do all these things, but it is summer so I hope to enjoy the weather as much as possible too:<\/p>\n

      A few photos from our trip to Manasquan taken with my phone.\u00a0 It was hot that day, lucky for us I bought a $4.99 umbrella from Rite Aid and the water was freezing but felt so refreshing once you got in.\u00a0 Cooled you right off!:<\/p>\n
