November Goals Recap

 November whizzed by, and it felt like a month where I both got a lot accomplished & somehow didn't have time for everything I wanted to do. 

Financial:

• Follow up on some financial advice with friends - our scheduled time moved to December
• Earn $200 of side hustle - $206
• Finalize 2026 budget - yes, done!

Family:

• One date night with M - a great dinner out + so much hiking & planning for our upcoming trip
• Have a fabulous Thanksgiving + break with the family - it was really so much fun. Both boys worked a lot, but we attended a friends party, Nick hosted a lot, we did a 5k together & we had a great Thanksgiving meal
• Start on Christmas gifts - yes, almost done!
• Decide on NYE plans - yes, and very pleased that my parents will be joining us on the back half of our trip

Fitness:

• Lose 2 lbs - I lost 4 lbs
• Get back to regular fitness check ins - yes
• 15 & 15 - strength training & No S days - 9 & 8 - lots of hiking vs strength training
• Meal prep for lunches - yes, this is working well
• Average 12,500 steps/day - yes, 13,761/day

Personal:

• Get together with friends x2 - yes, lots of meeting up for workouts & hikes
• Say yes to adventure & trying new things - planned an impromptu trip with my parents, agreed to build course curriculum (even though I found out my work wouldn't approve), lots of adventure planning with M
• Declutter 50 items - 26/50
• Work on travel planning & budgets- yes, basically finalized NZ travel planning. Still need to work on 2026 planning & budgets
