Today is the first day of the new school year for my community and family. It is an exciting time filled with enthusiasm and change. Kids have met their new teachers and now it is time to begin settling in to a new routine. I still have a lot of the same catch-up projects that I had at the beginning of schoolyears past. Although it is not quite September, I am taking advantage of the last few days of August to get a jump on my back to school busy-ness.

My kids today on the first day of school.

September 2013

Here is my list of tasks to complete in the next few weeks.

• Do a Health Check-In. Am I eating a healthy number of calories?  Am I exercising frequently?  Have I had my annual physical?
• Put away summer toys (e.g., beach items, etc.).
• Exchange summer clothing for cooler-weather clothing.
• Organize summer photos.
• Target areas of my house that have become a catch-all during the busy summer.
• Begin to think ahead to fall/holiday events and planning.
• Adjust to extra-curricular activity schedules (e.g., soccer practice/games, Brownie/Cub Scout meetings, etc.).
• Revisit budget and financial planning pages to make sure we are on target for holidays.

What is on your Fall To Do List?
