January Challenges - Week 4

Carla is doing an amazing job on her goals & hosting the challenge, so go check it out! :-)

Here are the goals I'm focusing on this last week of the month!

Financial:
  • Stick to $360 $300 for all of our variable expenses. I've cut this down, as per the final challenge of the month. The $60 in savings will go towards our tax/emergency fund savings account.
Decluttering:
  • Get rid of 30 items this week. Increasing from my original goal of 20, because I think there's still more there. :-)
  • Organize the food stash!

So, that's what I'll be up to this final week of the month.

Question for all of you. . . now that we're putting our finances & houses back in order, would anyone be interested in a Fitness-Focused February Challenge, where we set goals & check in & cheer each other on? Maybe with prizes? ;-)

    1. No need to make it about losing weight. If you're interested, it could be eating more fruits/vegetables, getting out for a walk, doing stretching exercises, or whatever you'd like

  5. I'm in too! I need a kick up the backside to get started, and I won't let the snow outside stop me. I'll just do some kind of exercise indoors instead. :-)
