Now, many of you may notice that I have a lot of the same intentions from last year for this year. Yeah, uh...I suck at following through on things sometimes. *grimace*
LOL - yeah, I tend to have the same goals from one year to the next. In a way it's good to keep reminding yourself of where you want to be. Keep working towards the debt reduction - you can do it!!!
ReplyDeletegood luck.
I don't think there's anything wrong with having the same intentions: it shows consistency and that you don't give up easily, which are both admirable characteristics. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteThose are good goals.
ReplyDeleteI'm still up for helping you with the house ones!
Happy New Year.
You'll come visit me won't you???
ReplyDeleteGood luck on your intentions for the year. Last year I concentrated on the financial portion of my life more than anything and I found myself questioning every purchase. I wanted to buy myself something special when I passed my professional engineering license exam like a new car or a sun room on my house. When the time came, I decided continuing to get out of debt was the best gift I could ever give myself. It definitely takes some reprogramming to get yourself there. Keep us up to date on your progress. We women need to talk about money and business more.
