 Here I’ll post what I’m hoping to complete this month from my bucket list or just my monthly to do’s.

You can check my progress live on this amazing website here. (Not sponsored, promise😊)


In my Blue Monday’s journal post: I’ll bring some weekly updates from This was list. But as I’ve just started today, I’m going to start this series next Monday. If something is done today, I’ll place it in this post.

And then some blogposts with more detailed separate updates if I thought the challenge was extra fun. I try to aim to post all my posts on Monday, so you'll know when to expect my posts. 

 

Monthly Goals of August 2020:

  •         Create a blog on Blogger (As I’ve created this post, it’s obvious I’ve checked this box. )
  •          Post my first blogpost.(Also already checking this. Woohoo! I’m on a roll🥳)
  •         Start the challenge to blog once a week for a year: Better start those good blog habits immediately. 
  •          Make a fun self-portrait for the about me section here on my blog and on my social media accounts.
  •          Create an Instagram-account and link it to my blog: I’ve never used this platform, so I need some time figuring everything out.
  •          Create a Goodreads-account, make some standard lists and list it on my blog (Done, you can check it here.)
  •           Clean up the inbox of my e-mail: This is urgent, because right now it’s a big mess.
  •           Clean up my PC: Need to clean up my harddisk as it’s getting a bit cluttered. Also clean my pc literally. I’m going to see if there are some safe ways to get this fancy box shiny again.
  •          Start to update my French a bit: I’ve definitely got some basics under control, but since I want to travel more in the future and I want to move to France (I’ve set out a three year-plan, whish me luck🤞), so it’s probably best that I can speak this language fluently. This month I want to at least practice e-mailing and calling in Frenching.
  •          Set up a budget and stick to it: As for a lot of people, money is tight for me right now. We’ve had a lot of bad luck during this Covid-19 pandemic. So it’s best to get a grip on this fast.
  •           Make a cleaning schedule and stick to it: Lots of planning this month. 😊 My son is four months old today and he’s playing more independently, so I’ve got more and more time to clean properly. I had some extra help the first months, luckily in Belgium they’ve got some back-ups in the health system for new moms. I was very happy with that one, as I’ve had more time to bond with that little miracle.
  •           Visit all the Belgian museum digital tours: The part of this list above are mainly some must do’s, but let’s have some fun-do's too. Now with the pandemic lots of museums have made fun experiences for digital tours of their museum. This is perfect to do on my smartphone before going to bed. If it's a lot, I'll probably limit it to the one's from Antwerp first.
  •           Update my skills for the latest Microsoft Office’s Excel. I use this program a lot to make schedules and lists. So updating can't hurt
  •           Take a free online class: Probably checked with the Excel or the French goal, so I can check this box off from my bucket list. Héhé, checking boxes feels so good. 😌
  •           Make a list of 101 quotes that inspire me: Great way to get a first board on my Pinterest-account.
  •           Make a list of 101 songs I could listen to forever..

 

Wow, seems like my plate is very full this month. Let’s see what I actually can accomplish, I’ve got eleven days before August ends. I’m curious if I’m able to do all this. It definitely helps to post this online. That way it’s probably more embarrassing for me, if I only do like a few tasks on this list.  

 

Are you challenging yourself this month? I’ll definitely have to push myself a bit with these heatwaves. It was 38°C/100°F here in my appartment, so I definitely feel like I’ve molten into a pile of sweat. Most of my energy went to keeping my son cool. So now that the temperatures are dropping I should be able do a lot more.
