I'm really enjoying this picture. I took it when I landed in Austin a few weeks ago. This is my element and Austin is at her best in the dark, moody rain. Incidentally this picture also captures the mood we have been in the past weekend, except snowy. It's been so, so nice.
So last week I did alright… I cleaned out my closet again, which always leaves me feeling refreshed, especially when I am getting rid of all the things that don't fit my style anymore. Speaking of that, I have been doing a lot of thinking about my style and how much it has changed over the past year and I kind of love that. But anyway, if you're interested, I am selling some of my stuff over on instagram. I'll be adding some more as the week goes on.
I didn't redesign my design shop because I got sucked into the design dream that is my media kit. I've been making future blog plans and I figured it would be a good thing to have. I actually LOVED designing it. Maybe I should look into newsletter designing?
Also, I did eat healthier dinners, even though some of them turned out to be sub-par. Oh well. I am just thankful that N is not the least bit picky.
- Finish re-branding my jewelry shop and new site. I am venturing out from etsy and I am pretty excited about all the new things that entails.
- Get my office in shape. It's coming along pretty well but there are still some things that need to be done, thrifting and ikea trips that need to be taken, those sorts of things.
- Sponsor 3 Blogs. At least. I haven't been sponsoring lately because my posting has been spotty but now that I am back I really want to get out there and start advertising again.
- Do my taxes. I am kind of a dweeb because I took an income tax account class in college - and loved it. Every year that I do my own taxes and actually know what I am doing is another year I get to feel like a nerdy rockstar. Yep.
- Take a weekend trip. I love taking trips around Texas. I go to Austin all the time because it's my home and I miss it - so I want to take another trip there and maybe to Houston.
There are so many other things I want to accomplish this month, a lot have to do with my shop but I'll leave those for the weeklies :)
Oooh I am super excited to read your wishes for February!
Venturing out from etsy makes things seem so much more official. It was one of the best choices I made for my shop. Congratulations! xo
ReplyDeleteHappy February Sarah :) Great goals this month! All the best for all, especially the weekend trip!
ReplyDeleteThese are all great! That photo is very cool too, I love how the focus is on the streams of water on the window, very cool
ReplyDeleteSuch great goals! I am jealous of your tax prowess...I get so intimidated by doing my own taxes! I'm excited to see your redesigned office and photos of your weekend trips! ;)
ReplyDeleteThese are great goals! I really hope you do amazing at all of them!
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited to see where your shop goes!
ReplyDeleteThere really is nothing like a weekend trip. I always come back feeling so relaxed and ready to take on the week. I'm visiting Texas for the first time later in the year so am excited to hear any tips!
ReplyDeleteGreat goals! I will have to check out your jewelry shop. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! Happy February to you as well :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! It does feel very official. It's seemed so intimidating but I decided that 2014 is the year to just go for it! I'm glad that it's working out for you :)
ReplyDeleteThank you!
ReplyDeleteThank you, there will definitely be pictures!
ReplyDeleteAwh, thank you!
ReplyDeleteThanks Taylor! I am too, working on all this is so rewarding, as I'm sure you know! :)
ReplyDeleteOooh, maybe I'll have to write something about that! Where in Texas will you be?
ReplyDeleteThanks girl, I appreciate it!
ReplyDeleteMy sister moved to Dallas last year, so we're going to spend a few days with her and then try to see a little bit more of Texas. I've heard great things about Austin but don't know much about anywhere else so any recommendations would be amazing!
ReplyDeleteYes, if you get the chance, go to Austin! I grew up there and it is an amazing city. I would love to give you some recommendations! When are you going?
ReplyDeleteWe're thinking September, my sister will only be back to college in August so want to give her some time to settle back in before we arrive! I will happily take any and all recommendations :)
ReplyDeleteLove your wishes...what a great way to start the month. Do you do a link up with this? If not, you should....I'd definitely join. Happy to say I am a new follower!
