2011 Resolutions



Resolutions:

Do at least 30 minutes of Wii (exercise-Jillian Michaels 2010, The Biggest Loser Challenge, Just Dance, etc) daily. Try to incorporate some other DVDs (Jillian Michaels Cardio, Denise Austin, Carmen Electra, etc) and running

Read 5 books (Debt Free for Life up first)

Complete taxes and submit NLT 15 Feb

Get on a plane and stay on it until it lands!

Keep grocery savings at or above 50% each month

Start keeping track of money (Mint.com, Yodlee or Quicken). Limit going out to breakfast to 4 times a month.

Continue to save every penny for downpayment fund. Long term goal is to have 20% saved to put down, however, since we are comfortable now in the condo and if we can really scrimp and save, we would like to save 100% down for a house like Money Saving Mom. She did it in 7 years so it IS doable!

Try to limit the junk food coming into the house. Stock up on fruits and veggies and cut back on processed foods.

Organize recipes into binders and try to get out weekly meal plans.

Find new job.

Clean and organize the house with 52 Weeks of Organizing from I'm an Organizing Junkie .
