October was an amazing month for My Stay At Home Adventures. To be honest one of the best! Read October Income Report and November Goals to find out how amazing it was!This month went fast, and honestly, I’m super excited that November is here! I am super excited to share my October income report and November goals with you because I am impressed with my overall achievements.

During the month of October, I have to say that it started bad on a personal level. This year has been really rough, and starting this month on a bad note was more than I could handle. My 5 year old was very sick and out of school for about a week. This is the first time in his life he has been this sick. My 2 year old caught what he had, but not as bad.

This, and other news, prevented me from doing what I planned to do this month and kept me pretty busy. Overall, the month turned out to be another life changing one for us; I will share this news with you all later this month.

October Personal Goals

Personal goals

As far as personal goals, even as small as I kept them, trying to keep up with sick kids and mommy prevented me from completing them. We also changed course and decided to start a major project in our home, which we thought was only going to take us a few days. As I type this post, we are still working on this project.

  • Get rid of clothing we don’t need – I started this project and never finished it.
  • Start doing some fall crafts with the entire family – The fall crafts I had in mind turned into painting the interior of our house. The kids weren’t up to doing anything but rest.

Blog goals

  • Continue to promote the blog – I think this is working for me.
  • Revisit old posts – I did a few of them, but didn’t finish them all.
  • Publish my eBook – Still sitting there.

As you can see, I didn’t get much of what I had planned accomplished and I am OK with that. I will get them done when things settle in our home.

November Personal Goals

I don’t know if I am able to stick to a goal this month since this month is looking like an extremely busy one. This means both personal and work wise. As my blog continues to grow, so does the paying opportunities and I am so happy about this.

  • Get rid of clothing we don’t need – I have to get this done and get our winter clothes ready.
  • Start doing some fall crafts with the entire family – After we finish our painting project, we will start doing crafts for Thanksgiving.
