Monthly Goal Review

Goals for the Year:
Lose 12 pounds in 2012.  Weight on 1/1 was 138.8.  Weight on 9/1 was 132.6. Weight on 10/1 was 133.2.  (I ate some chinese food the other weekend, and it *still* hasn't dropped down!  Then this weekend, I ate about 2 months worth of sugar at a birthday party.  And it is hard to regret it when it is sooooo good!)
Read at least 12 books (other than to my child) in 2012.  34 books read in September bringing the total to 69. 30 of these were the aforementioned sappy/crappy romance novels, but, hey, a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do.
Race 12 times in 2012. 2 races this month! 
And I have one other secret 12 goal. 8 more to add, making it 24.

Goals for September:
Continued progress towards 2012 goals.
Stay steady on the run, work up to 4 days per week with long runs 6-working-up-to-8 miles.  Done!  Complete 2 scheduled races. Done!! Enjoy the rest while maintaining consistency!  Done!!  Try to get some core work in there.  Done!!
Financial goals: liquidate SMH account and reallocate to J.  Fail, but we *did* FINALLY get the other outstanding AD issue on the road, and that is a very good thing!
House goals: clean AD house. Progress made!  Progress towards floors in my house. I had a great month - guess I couldn't have everything - no progress on this front.

Goals for October:
Continued progress towards 2012 goals.
Throw a successful beach birthday party for my (OMG) precocious 2 year old (OMG).
Keep up the consistency on the run, building to 10 mile long runs.
Complete 3 (!!) scheduled races.
Continue with the core work and other "fun" working out the rest of the time.
Financial goal: liquidate SMH account and reallocate to J.
House goals: finish cleaning out AD house, make progress towards floors in my house.
