2011 New Year's Resolutions

[amanda6035]

I'm going to finish paying off my car. I started Dave Ramsey's Total Money makeover in February 2009. We've paid off just over $36K in debt since then, and we're in the home stretch of the remaining $6K now....once thats done, all we'll have left is student loans and mortgage.

I'm going to lose at least 20 pounds by May, when hubby and I plan to start trying to conceive. I have much more weight than that to lose, but my goal now is to get as healthy as possible so that hopefully, we will get pregnant quickly and have a safe, healthy pregnancy.

I'm going to dust off the daily devotional that I bought last year, that I never cracked open. Hopefully I can get with it this year....

Congratulations! That's huge! We are maybe 2 years from out of a similar amount of debt without having to do too much belt tightening. It just takes focus.

Other than the every year stuff (weight, exercise, be happier), I'm going to complete my quilt this year. It's the biggest friggin thing you've ever seen (European King size 300cm X 300cm mattress, plus overhang) and I'm hand quilting it. It has a tendency to get set aside and not picked up for weeks at a time. No more! At least a couple hours every week should get me there.

I just bought his book the other day ( I've been listening to him on the radio for about a year so I KINDA know the program). I have about $25k of debt (all car) which I hope to pay off this year. After that beast is killed my goal is to put $1,000 a month into my savings account.
