Goals Update: March


I can't believe it's the end of March already.  I barely feel like I've accomplished anything so far this 2012 and it's already a quarter over.

Here's my goals update:



1. WORK ON MY 101 IN 1,001 LIST - I've been doing pretty well with this so far.  There are a few more things I want to accomplish during the summer.  Plus, I know as soon as I move into my own place here in Chicago, I will be able to work on a few other things.

2. SAY "YES" MORE OFTEN - I think I've been doing pretty well with this... all things considered.  I've been more flexible with my time (which is a HUGE accomplishment for me) and I am looking forward to more things as the year goes on.

3. SAVE, SAVE, SAVE - This has stayed the same since my move.  I had to use a portion of my savings to pay for my month of health insurance (man, is that expensive).  Also, I know that I will have to pay a large chunk to move my things to IL when I find my own place.  I'm trying really hard to not use that money and put more into it.  Selling my house would be a BIG help!  Also, my new job relies a lot on my spending my money when I am traveling and submitting for reimbursement.  In the end, it's all fine, but I haven't had the luxury of having that extra money (I've been living pretty tightly), so this will be an adjustment for me.  Hopefully, I can get some things lined up, develop my own budget and go from there.


So far, 2012 has been pretty successful for me goal-wise.
