Well….this is officially 6 months. Halfway through this year! Let’s see how I did with these goals – you can read my original post from January here
Personal Goals
General Health
I feel like I did pretty darn good on this one! I’m down 10lbs thanks to Weight Watchers and some of the StepBet games I was in.
Sub-Goal: Donate Blood – I have donated blood twice and need to schedule another because it is time.
Focus on Creativity
I also did well on this one! I’ve been knitting, using the circle loom, had a great time at a collage event, and look forward to continuing this one. Here is some progress on my recent knitting project and part of a collage I started at a collage party:
I did not read as many books as I had hoped but I started a bunch! I only finished Amy Poehler’s YES PLEASE.
Financial Goals
Pay Down Some Mortgage
I worked pretty damn hard on this one but the HVAC has me all-cash-on-deck until it’s done.
$800/$1,000
Save Like a Motherfucker
I was able to put $1,000 in my savings! It has been difficult maintaining it but I feel better know it’s there gaining a lil’ interest. I also moved my IRA to Charles Schwab where some service fees are waived for doing monthly $100 direct deposit. Saving that $1,200 will be really helpful in the long run and I hope to put more cash into it!
$1,000/$1,000
Professional Goals
License Credits
I completed half of my insurance Continuing Education credits!
Annuities
I started to learn about this and think I am going to focus some of my remaining 12 CE credits on deepening that knowledge.
Blog Goals
Why The Fuck Are You Reading This?
I think I did pretty good given the huge financial expenses that have popped up.
