Here's a little update on some of the goals I'm trying to work on.
**Get Emme and Kisa spayed. Goodbye $175. Debating on this. I am hopeful that after my tax refund and subsequent repaying of two of my credit cards there will be enough left over to get the girls spayed. Or buy me a freezer. Decisions, decisions.
**Wash face everyday for a month. Doing pretty good on this one. If you don't count weekends. I'm lucky if I can drag myself from bed to the couch.
**Save $1000-1500 Hoping that this is one is a little closer in the making. After paying off my two credit cards, I should have about $100 more in my budget, of which $50/month is going straight into a piggy bank.
**Pay off 2 credit cards As mentioned above, I am using my tax return to pay off my credit cards (Thank you, Jesus! Amen.). My first return I ... did something with(?) the second I bought a bed, the next a car so now I'm working on debt. Really fun. Can't I buy another bed. Or something?
**Pay off smallest student loan The other $50 (or maybe $25) is going on to my smallest student loan. Only $950 left! Whoohoo! We will not mention my other student loan. Unless you want to see me weep bitter, bitter tears of hate.
**Put up blind in guest bedroom The blind has been in the bedroom for 6 months now. Why is it so difficult to actually ATTACH it to the wall? Why?
**Meal plan every week for a month. I've stuck to my meal plan so far. Granted it's only nine days in but hey, February is a short month, right? I get points for that.
**Lose 25 pounds Okay, that number may be slightly high. I would settle for 2.5 pounds right now.
**Cut cable package to internet only I have a phobia of calling my cable provider. I always sound like an idiot and no one can understand what I'm trying to explain. I mean, I use technical terms and everything like ya know, the green light thingy is blinking or the green light thingy isn't green anymore but orange or maybe yellow?
**Buy a freezer I have wanted to buy a freezer for a long time. Especially since my grocery store has been having great deals on their meat that I cannot participate in because my freezer is full. 'Cause it's dinky. And mean.
**Learn how to bake bread There is a possibility this will be attempted on Friday. Stay tuned for further announcement. Also, be afraid. Very afraid.
**Decide on keeping desk or not Probably leaning toward yes. Right now it is holding my almost-as-old-as-I-am TV which is allowing me to watch Poirot before bed. We do not mess with the Poirot watching.
**Start exercising Umm, yeah. No comment.
**Organize recipes This will take me five hundred years. But five hundred years from now I will be the most organized cook in the world. Also, very old.
**Catch up on tv series Right now, I'm through Season 1 of Torchwood, about halfway through Season 2 and dragging my heels for Children of Earth. I'm not sure I can watch. Also, watching Poirot and slugging through my Netflix queue (which I can watch on my new Blu-ray player!) of which there are 358 movies and/or tv series to get through. Where's another blizzard when you need one?
