1. Save $1000. Well, I started out with good intentions when I got paid on the 10th. I paid most of my bills on my first check, but had some unfortunate unexpected expenses come up when I renewed my license and registration. It turns out that your registration does not expire on your birthday every year, so I accumulated some late fees. Also, I bought a blender that cost $150. Haha. February seems to be going a little better though; I haven't spent much of my 2nd paycheck from January.
2. Travel someplace new before December 31, 2014. When filling out my application for CTY this year, I ranked Seattle, Hong Kong, and some other places, but then got scared! I ended up changing my preferences to just Seattle because I was too nervous to travel to Hong Kong alone, plus I wanted to work for more than just 3 weeks. There's a possibility that I may still end up going to Santa Cruz, but I'm really keeping my fingers crossed for Seattle!
3. Sign up for and run in a marathon-type thing. Okay, so I haven't even started running. I also haven't used my Beach Babe DVD since my birthday. I am most definitely going to get my rear into gear this month! I have 2 different fitness related Groupons! One for a local Barre3 studio and another for a nearby yoga studio.
4. Become more comfortable in the kitchen. I haven't really had time to do any creative cooking. Earlier this month, I made one of my favorite Weight Watchers recipes and made a few adjustments based on what I had available in the kitchen. This month, I promise to make more time for cooking (especially since last week we basically ate freezer food each night).
Originally, I thought about making "monthly resolutions" instead of the traditional year-long type. I still set some goals for myself in January and accomplished all of them. I scheduled a dentist appointment and switched my phone plan and got a smart phone.
This month, my goal is to file my taxes!
