Hello all I think I have almost been here a month now. I'm eager to stick with it and hopefully improve some more as a writer. I truly believe I've met some amazing people here and it's amazes me how well some of you write.

Some of you know my purpose here so I'm not going to go into earnings I make on writing. Rather I will tell you some of my personal goals and content goals.

Health

I'm two weeks past the eye surgery I had on 8/25. I'm currently seeing about 40% of my view vision in my left eye. My doctor said it will be about 8 weeks until it's back to normal. I'm hopeful to be close to 80% by the end of the month.

I love running but I have been restricted from doing it since my eye surgery. I see the doctor next on 9/15. I hope to get a lot of physical restrictions lifted, hopefully this will be one. So my goal by the end of the month is to be running 3 miles a day again during the weekdays.

Another health goal is to get back on track with my diet. Once again this surgery has really knocked this off too. Not being able to do many things physically has lead me to thinking about food too much. My taste buds have been satisfied though,lol. I will start being serious about this starting right now.

Family

Being sidelined I have spent a lot of time with my family. It's kind of hard to come up with a goal actually. Maybe better to look at it more forward in time while I'm back to my normal self. So in the future maybe more family outings together.

My Delivery Job/ Full Time Job

Ok it's been two weeks since I've made a delivery driving. You heard enough about my eye already, right? I'm hoping to make a few deliveries the last week in September. So I'm going to make a goal of 15 deliveries.

For my full time job I want to be able to do all the physical things the job entails. This will be throwing bags into and out of aircraft baggage compartments. Also to be able to load and offload cargo on aircraft. The only thing I probably won't be able to accomplish is driving equipment up to the aircraft. I have been the secretary for too long, lol. I also teach all the classes currently to stay gainfully employed.

Financial Goals

My financial goals are in pretty good order. The only real thing I need to prepare for is getting a new car. My current car is going to be given to my son to drive. I don't want to dig out of my savings or my emergency fund for this. I don't plan to buy outright either but I would like to put a nice down payment on it. So a goal will be to save $400 this month for this. The upcoming months I will increase that amount because I will be doing more hours.

Read & Noise

I have to the most part wrote an article almost every day. I will continue to do my best but there are days when I don't have the time. I'll set the bar at 20. I think I have only missed 1 day so far this month so just 15 to go. As far as reading goes I will shoot for 15 a articles a day. I would like to get to 5o followers. I think I can get there before months end. I would also like to personalize my articles a bit to. I do have two other things I want to accomplish this month but it's kind of a surprise. I'm working through somethings to make that happen. I hope I can accomplish this surprise goal.

I keep pretty active in Noise. I think my goals here will be to make 3 posts a day, use all my FT , and make at least 15 comments to other posts. I also need to improve my posts with more pictures. The last goal for September will be to reach 100 followers.

Closing thoughts

Well first goal posts I hope I meet most as some are kind of out of my control. I'm glad to be part of this community and hope to build on current relationships as well as make new ones. Well that's it folks.

Take care and have a great day!!
