I really don't like making them, but decided I don't like making them because I never stick to them. I really have a few things I want to accomplish this year so I'm doing it. I'm jumping on the band wagon and setting my goals. I read somewhere that if you make them public you are more likely to stick to them. So here they are:
~#1 Drink Starbucks only once a week.
~ Reason is because I think I spend way too much money! I don't ever just buy myself a drink. I always get one for a co-worker or my mom too. And getting one every day but 1 adds up to about $60 a week! Can you believe that? Ugh
~ #2 Loose the baby weight (from both pregnancies)!
~ After I had Krew I feel like the majority of it melted off! I didn't have to work for the first 20 pounds. I will say I was pregnant in July so lots was water weight and that explains why I left the hospital 15 lbs. lighter. The next 5 were gone in about 3 weeks and then I had to start working on it. When I got pregnant with Kade I still had 10 pounds of Krew left one me, so I already started in a bad place. So needless to say I have about 25 pounds to loose to get to my Pre-Krew weight! I think if I follow through with # 1 it should help with #2.
~ #3 Be debt free by this time next year!
We can do it, I know we can. I made a budget the other night and was appalled by how much we spend on silly things like Starbucks, Monsters, eating out, and worst of all baby clothes. I hate to say it but I think Krew and Kade could both easily go 2 months without wearing the same thing twice. They don't because of course I have my favorite outfits I put them in but they could.... Let me clarify what I mean by debt free. Obviously we will still have a house payment and car payment, but I would like to have our 1 credit card paid off (it's so close), Hospital paid off by June, and I would like to have enough money saved to do some house projects, and get Seth a truck that will fit our family! lol
I think I'll leave it at that! I know those are some big goals but might as well shoot for the stars!
