{September Goals}

It's never too late to make goals, right?

1.) Exercise more:  I am going to reestablish my 24 Hour Fitness membership today

There is a 24 Hour very close to my new place and since right now I have to wake-up at 2:45am in order to make it to my {free} work gym to workout before work (and shower), I'd rather be at a closer gym. My time is precious to me, especially when I have to work 12 hour days.

2.)  Take more Fall photographs: This will be an easy one since I now have a reliable vehicle to get me to all the places I want to visit in order to get this photos.  I have a huge list of places I want to visit and I may get to about a fraction of them (thanks to work and school) before Fall is over (in Colorado).

3.) Finish school work before my work break: I like to procrastinate.  However, if I procrastinate with this I won't be able to enjoy those fall adventures with my new Jeep.

4.) Take Gandalf for 20 minute walks (bare minimum): Poor lil guy. When I work, I only take him out to "do his business" before bringing him back in and then heading to bed.

5.) Do better with IIFYM: This is a must. I want to look good but more importantly feel good.  I want the cute clothes I've already bought to look good on me and not feel the uncomfortable stomach bulge.

6.) Start running again: I lost most of my weight when I was running AND lifting weights.  I need to start including this again in my routine. The weather is about to get perfect for it.

On a side note, I feel like these goals will be much more attainable once I begin working my M-F, 9-5 job. It is extremely hard to get into a routine when you work a rotating schedule of 2 days, work 2 nights and then have 4 off.  Excuses, sure but I am going to try my damndest to get into that routine before I even start the new job.  I did it before. I can do it again.
