I have already completed my first yearly goal! My EF reached $3,000 today when my check cleared. AND I had an extra $135 to put towards the car fund. I just hope the EF can stay this high this time.
Here are my January Goals a few days late:
1) $198 to car fund ($167 auto, $31 extra) – this will effectively knock off a month of saving
2) Leftover to DH Student Loan 2 – hoping for about $300 despite husband’s time off for his vacation
3) Put $100 extra to car loan – on autopilot for end of month
4) Start tax returns, finish if I get everything on time
5) No soda – reward: chocolate fondue
6) Read three books – I need to return my friend’s books, but first I need to read them
Also, I’m enjoying my time home alone these past 4.5 days. I’ve cooked a lot of good food for only me, cleaned the house and it STAYED clean, watched MY shows on the big TV, and had a lot of snuggle time with the puppies. This is one of the best staycations I ever had, even though I had no time off of work. Yet, I’m so ready for my family and husband to come back. Empty house gets a tad bit lonely from time to time. Only one more day left.
