The Meetup :: November 2010

Welcome to November – yikes!

I have been up to my whatever in holiday designs and I finally launched those puppies in the store. I was able to get to four out of my six Work goals (note the hearts) this month, so I’m pretty happy with the month.

I really need to wrap up those grocery notepads. It’s the perfect time to launch my take on a grocery list with most of the CSAs wrapping up this week. I don’t think my home product is going to be completed this year. It’s not something I want to rush, because I’m out of my comfort zone in the making of it. 2011, here I come.

I only hit one out of the three Personal goals, but I did run 50 miles this past month (blogged here.)

With the clocks changing this coming weekend, I’m hoping to do better with my 5am wake-up. I hit it a few times in the past few weeks and I’m much more productive when I make it happen.

In November, Craftland and holiday orders will be my number one and two priorities.

All my inventory for Craftland needs to be shipped by Tuesday, November 9, so I am deep in printing, cutting and packaging. Packaging my paper goods for the first time for retail sale is rewarding and a bit time-consuming. It’s a great first step to my wholesale goal.

I’m finishing up my father-in-law’s wedding needs with a program for the ceremony. It will be a fun project, but I need to make time for the assemblage. In this busy season, my caffeine intake is going to skyrocket!

Oh, yoga, how I miss you! Why can’t I get my act together with this goal? Maybe I’m so used to it taking 90 minutes that it seems too daunting.

So, my :: Yoga, damn it! :: goal will be to do ten minutes a day, hopefully at the same time every day. I think I can manage that. Hope you have a stretchy, busy, fulfilling November with some moments of quiet.

  1. Great work Cyn…You are doing so much it is wonderful to see. Good luck with the getting up early and the yoga. To finding balance between work and life and health. Hope you have a wonderful productive November!

  2. Congrats on your accomplishments last month and good luck in November. I want to start back with daily Yoga too… and getting up early, but I’m not sure how to make it happen for me yet. hrm.

  3. omg 50 miles, that is so awesome, you are my new hero. Love all the hearts for October. Now for November, my wish for you is that you get to the yoga everyday for the 10 minutes, and if you do nothing else, you will still be my hero. Have a great November Cyn!

  4. So great you finished your wedding suite! I’ve got some wedding goodies up my sleeve, but so far they keep getting pushed to the back burner. Seems like a great market to get into though. And yay about Craftland! (I missed a couple meetups so I guess I missed that.) I was bummed not to get in, but I’ll definitely come see your lovely work! So cool! Have fun hosting Thanksgiving…

  5. 50 miles, fantastic!!! that is truly something to celebrate. i began yoga again this month, wish I could do it daily but 2x a week is all i am good for right now. I like your idea of 10 minutes – each day that seems doable. it is so rewarding. wishing you a great November!

  6. Wow Cyn please let me know your secret to waking up 5am 5 days a week! I can barely wake up before 10am `=T & I love your to-do lists on the pretty pattern papers.

    Good luck on your goals for this month! `=]
