Good afternoon!
I’ve been so busy to make any good updates, but it’s all for good reason! In just a couple weeks, I get my life back and I’m hoping to pick up some more writing gigs! 🙂
In LIFE:
- I’m working double-duty right now: I’m going 9-5 for six days of the week, then I’m running 7-11 in the evenings because I’m doing a show! It’s a very exciting time, but I’m damn near beat!
- I’m freezing here in the Midwest! These temperatures are out to kill us.
- I’m not religious, but I do like to take part in a Lent type of activity every year – hence, 40 Days 40 bags! I’m only at 2 bags and a large furniture piece, but I’m almost positive that I will get there.
- Completed a week-long clean eating challenge, but did succumb to a couple of Girl Scout cookies. Whoops!
With MONEY:
- I think this month may be the first time, in the history of my blog at least, that I may not go over budget in my ‘dining out’ category. If things continue as they are, that’s going to be a win! I may do a happy dance in honor of that. I’ll keep you all posted!
- I’m about 30% to my savings goal and it’s only the end of February – read more about that here!
- Does anyone else feel like they are much more broke in February? Maybe their budgets feel a little bit tighter? Mine sure does! Maybe just because the month is short? I don’t know.
- Finding out what my bonus this year will be so that I can apply it to my weeklong birthday vacation! Still not planning to use my credit cards! 🙂
Looking forward to giving you guys a real update soon! But until then, you can look forward to my Five Things Friday post coming up soon!
Sounds like you’ve made good progress. Congrats on being under for your dining out! That’s one place I go over budget EVERY SINGLE MONTH!
