I can’t believe it is now September so here I am sharing my September plans. We have so much going on this month so I have got plenty in the pipeline. Here is what I want to do this month:
- Take pictures of Jack’s first day at school and actually get them printed out and framed for us and his grandparents. I can’t quite believe he is going to be going to school, I still haven’t got over him attending pre school!
- Rewrite my CV and apply for a couple of jobs I’ve seen. One is permanent, one is temporary but even so, a little extra money will help us in the run up to Jack’s birthday and Christmas.
- Following on from that, I want to keep on top of my freelance work – chasing up those who email me and go quiet and actually chase up late payments of my invoices – I can be far too nice.
- Pay a substantial amount off my credit card – this requires hard work.
- Make time for myself. Whether this means making time to read (including my Netgalley challenge for the month of September), having some friends round for a movie night or playing some free bingo with friends on a site like Bingo Extra), I need to spend a little more time relaxing. I’m constantly doing something and I need to find the time to chill out every now and again before I flake out.
- Start getting Jack’s presents for his birthday and Christmas – with both in December, I have to get prepared in advance. Since he’s now got the two things I was going to buy (thanks to family), I’m a little stuck for what to get him! I only have one thing in mind right now but I’m sure I will find more things he would like nearer the time.
- Get my personal finance blog up and running again.
- Get a few things ticked off my 30 before 30 list.
I suppose you could also call my September plans goals. Some of them are certainly achievable, others not so much. I plan on getting as many of these done as I can this month. I’m thinking about making this a monthly post as I think it can keep me accountable if I have something to refer back to. I struggle without having a set to do list in front of me to keep me on track – so this should help, right?
What have you got planned for the month of September?

You certainly have a lot of plans. I just want to get my back sorted out and am hoping after my MRI scan next week I will have a way forward. x
I think it’s important to have goals like this to keep being focused. Good luck in applying for jobs. I can’t believe Jack will be off to school, my son is going to University so that will be a big deal for us this month.
omg i know, i can’t believe september has rolled around so quickly!!!!!
re your freelance work do it! no way should you be having to wait for invoices, get your girl boss head on and go get your cash! x
Good luck with all of your plans – especially on the job front. I’ve just written my blog plans and some personal ones on my blog – September always feels like a second “new year” to me!
It sounds like you have a lot planned! Good luck! I hope Jacks first day of school goes OK! x
I’m still struggling to understand how it’s September already! It’s going to be ma busy month for me as well, too much to do. I hope you manage to achieve all your plans xx
I want to read the 4 books I have on my list still and then look at getting more x
Great goals for September – it sounds like you are going to be busy! I hope you get everything ticked off and that the first day of school goes well!
That sounds like you’ve got a lot planned – and I think the best way to get somewhere is to have a plan, so I’m sure you’ll be fine. Good Luck! 🙂
Sounds like you’ve got a busy month ahead! Not sure what I’ll be doing yet exactly
What a great list… lots of exciting things you have planned there!
Best of luck with your plans. It’s great to set goals/plans/targets to keep us in check x
Ahh I can’t believe you have so many plans – I don’t even know what I’m doing tomorrow – good luck! x
Sounds as though you have a busy month ahead of you. I have only one big plan for September, 3 weeks on holiday in Austria. Can’t wait.
Lot’s of plans! I have no idea what I want to achieve in September! Maybe keep the white school shirts white!! #mumslife
I can’t believe its September already; this year has literally flown by for me.
