Pretty good start to the goals for this year! Lots of ones done, including all the streaming ones, and the big house one is well underway! I’ve had a lot of the selection meetings, now it’s waiting for the final costs to come to see where it stands versus the budget and if we have to cut some stuff back to stay within said budget. Wee!
Financials
These are goals revolving around anything related to my personal finances.
- No new credit card debt
- Calm my tits on Twitch giving to no more than $100 a month in bits/subs/tips/donations, plus 2 6 mth subscriptions – MODIFIED because I was not accounting for my 6 mth subs; I’m also failing this to ridiculous levels
- Drainage loan balance to $3,500 or less
Figure out best way to finance foundation/crawlspace/bathroom stuff– DONE! Took out a personal loan
Fitness and Health
Anything related to exercise, weight loss, general fitness, and being a healthier me.
- Strength training at least 3 times a week
- Cardio at least 2 times a week
- Redo Wondr program and try better to stick to it
- More mindfully practice self-care
Around the House
One big goal, which will probably dominate the house stuff for the year outside of simple stuff like cleaning and the all
