It's the start of mighty October, the final quarter of the year, the run to the finish. It's time to review the goals I've set myself for 2009 again. So, let's have a look and see how we're travelling;

• Give Steph the love and attention she deserves.
• I think this is going OK. Nothing spectacular, but I'm not feeling that I'm being inattentive or unloving towards her... so I guess that's OK?
• Sort out the garden at the new house.
• Garden Phase 3 happens in the next 2 weeks. Today was at a nursery looking at plants - I reckon we'll have something pretty decent by the end of the year.
• Work on losing some weight and getting in better physical shape.
• On again, off again. Haven't made much headway alas.
• Make the conscious decision and/or commitment; Vegan or not?
• Have read Singer's book, and have conciously made the decision to go Vegetarian. I think Vegan is still a little way away yet, but I don't have any problem at all being Vegetarian.
• Ride the wave that will be the next Neumann in our house.
• Atticus is now 6.5 months old, and he's awesome. We're getting along fabulously
• Make an impact on OBS, and have as much fun as possible doing it :)
• Just this week I've taken over the reins of the General Manager role - so that's going to be a big step forward in the impact I can make. I'm very excited about it actually.
• Spend some quality time with the Soesters.
• Not much in the past 3 months ... but there are plans afoot to see them in Melbourne in a month or so.
• Keep blogging. At least 10 entries a month; or better yet, at least 2 entries a week.
• I've dropped off a bit on the old blogging front... need to pick that up again
• Don't start smoking again
• I've had a few more cigarettes than planned in the past few months. I haven't become "a smoker" per se... but definitely needs to be watched (and I will)
• Hopefully get along to the MS Worldwide Partner Conference again in July
• Did it, loved it.
• Keep playing guitar.
• Playing heaps lately. Loving it.
• Start a habit of posting songs I've written and recorded to my blog.
• 8 so far. Another few to go I reckon to catch up.
• Win the lottery (Division one).
• Not yet - still trying though :)

On evaluation, I reckon that's all pretty great. Need to do something about my weight and blog a little bit more. Otherwise, full steam ahead! :)
