November is here, and we are quickly approaching the end of the year. There is a decent amount that I need to get done this month, and because of that, my goals list will be on the smaller side. Before we get to my November 2025 goals, I want to take a moment and share how I did with October’s goals.
October Review
October was a fantastic month. I planned to dedicate the month to fun, and that’s exactly what happened. I didn’t have a plan most days; I simply did what I wanted. This may become a yearly event.
Read 5 books
That and more! I did a ton of reading this month, much more than I expected to.
Watch at least 2 seasons of shows, 2 documentaries & 5 movies
Close, I didn’t quite hit all of these goals, but I did watch quite a bit over the course of the month.
For shows, I watched:
- Wednesday (1 season)
For movies, I watched:
- Book Club
- The Horizon Part 1
For documentaries, I watched:
- Planet Earth III
- Dark Horse
- The Woman Who Loves Giraffes
- The Giant Pacific Octopus
- First Life with David Attenborough
- Secrets of the Dinosaurs: The Real Jurassic Americas
Play video games
Yes. I mostly played World of Warcraft: Legion Remix, but I also played several hours of Stardew Valley.
Spend time outside
Yes. Despite the cooler temperatures most days, I spent quite a bit of time outside. It was a mix of walking and playing with my dog, cleaning up the garden for the winter, or simply enjoying a sunny day.
Paint the master bedroom
Not quite. I couldn’t decide on a color for the master bedroom, so we skipped painting it. However, my son chose a color for his bedroom, so that room was painted instead.
November 2025 Goals
I am keeping my goals limited this month because one goal will take up a lot of my time.
Read at least 5 books
This is my standard monthly goal. If I read more than this, that’s great, but 5 books is what I am aiming for.
My November TBR is full of books I’m excited to read.
Watch at least 1 season of a show & 2 movies
I’m trying to whittle down my to-watch lists. This is a fun goal, so if I don’t get it done, that will be fine.
Get ready for winter
Ah, yes, it’s that time of the year when we need to ensure our house and everything else are ready for winter.
Deep clean the house
It’s time for autumn cleaning – think spring cleaning, but in the autumn. I’m hoping to get this all done this month; however, this will take a backseat to winter prep since that is the more time-sensitive activity.
I hope you enjoyed my October 2025 goals. What do you have planned for the month?
