July Recap and August Goals

I both cannot believe that July is over and I am so thankful that August is here. I start my new job and I am excited and terrified about it. I have so many things to say about that but that is a whole different post. I feel like July was a good month for me, I am in Florida! I am ready to start my job and almost every single box is unpacked. Now that you have a rough idea of what is going on, lets get down to business how did last month go.

July Recap:
1- Move to Florida: 
Done
2- Be ready for work on day one: I want to have the car done, anything set up like cable and all of that. I want to be able to get to work and go on the first day. 
I did some of this but not all, annoying
3- Run more. I don't know how much more but I would love to get 10-12 runs in this month
I ran 7 times, but with the move this was enough.
4- The Review.... I still have to finish writing my part... oops
hahah... still didn't happen
5- Order the planner (it comes out in July, yes I am buying a fancy one)
Done and I cannot wait to share it with you
6- Enjoy the two weeks in Florida with no work, I am afraid that I will feel bad about not doing anything. I scheduled this in this way so that I would be able to really rest before school starts. I want to read and bake and just spend time with Lily. 
These weeks have been amazing, so done.

August Goals:
1- Prep for class: Plan the whole semester, have lecture outlines for the classes to the first exam, figure out the online thing.

2- Run more: My goal is 30 miles, I would also like to check out the cycling room at the apartment gym at least once a week

3- Try 2 restaurants in Jacksonville, I am going to try and check out many of the pet friendly ones until I make friends.

4- Finish the Gallery Wall in my home office

5- Become a Florida Resident: The ids needed to become a citizen are a real struggle here in Florida but hopefully all of the paperwork will be here this week so I can make that happen.

6- Get a haircut before the first day of class

7- Spend time at the beach with Lily, the beach is pet friendly in the early morning and the late evening.

I feel like August is going to be a whirlwind of a month, I am going to be crazy busy starting the new job and still trying to figure out where everything is here in Jacksonville. One of the less concrete goals is to make sure that I am taking good care of myself and Lily. I hope to be able to spend time with her exploring the city.
