Some are financial and some are not. Here are the ones I had been musing over for the end of December....
1. Increase Charitable Contributions--I use to give more than I do now. Need to figure out which local charities I will give more to.
2. Pay off one auto loan. We have two. Paying off one will free up car to give to DS and then goodbye to payment AND auto insurance payment for it. (he pays for his part of insurance, but we pay for ours)
3. Keep EF at 6 mos. while paying down CC. I just feel better that way.
4. Pay off 3 CC and close 1.
5. Get all CCs down to 30% usage. This is getting closer all the time, but there is one or two that is higher because of tuition costs and such.
6. Lose a pound a month and walk/exercise again.
7. Start a house project book and try to fit in a project a month. Don't try to do more than one a month so I won't burn out.
8. Eat healthier. Add vegetables back into our diet. For some reason, vegetables disappeared from our table. Weird.
9. Keep in better contact with far away relatives.
10. Plan a trip with Hubby this year. We haven't gone on a real vacation together in a loonnngg while.
That's it so far!

People usually look at me like I am crazy that my goal is to lose 1 or 2 pounds a month. Last year I only lost about 9 pounds but you know what, it is a LOT less likely to come back on, and I am just pleased I did not gain any weight. Slow and steady wins the race.
