January Goals

January 4th, 2011 at 02:44 am

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.

    Wow, when you are less than a week into the new year and you have already knocked off one of your goals, that has to lead to some good feelings of accomplishment! Yes, some time alone is good, but there is nothing like welcoming back the ones you love. At least you had the insurance of the dogs to keep you company!
