Elizabeth over a Table4Five.net has a blogroll going to encourage bloggers to work towards their New Years’ Resolutions. This way we can cheer and root for each other to reach our goals.
If you get a chance, check it out and join the fun!
Well I finally decided to write down my resolutions. Here they are in no particular order.
1. Save $500. Yep this was a resolution for this year but I had to pay for school so I used that money. This $500 can be cash and/or savings bonds.
2. Graduate from school. I need 4 classes and I want to do everything I can to finish by this December. The only way I won’t graduate is if classes are unavailable, I’ll find the money any way I can.
3. Pay at least $469.08 off of the principal of my car. If I pay this amount each year I can cut my car payment from 5 years to 4 years. I’ll pay a little each month and use a portion of any income tax money that I may get.
4. Get a promotion or a new job by March. I’m waiting for a promotion but if it doesn’t materialize by the end of the month I’ll start looking outside of my area. I should mention that my “promotion” has been in the works since late October so I’m tired of waiting.
5. Work towards my new net worth goal of 10k. I won’t reach that this year but I want to make some progress towards it. Right now I’m at 7k but I have to spend some of my savings on school so it will go down by the end of the month.
6. Lose another pants size by the end of the year. This was the only goal I actually met and maintained last year so I want to do it again. My ultimate goal is 2 sizes smaller but I’ll be happy with 1 size smaller.
Here’s hoping everyone meets their resolutions this year!
