Happy New Year!
I am hoping, praying, planning and striving for a fantastic 2009.
Thank goodness it started off right -- I finished December 2008 in the black!
I had a wonderful trip with my guy and I am finishing up the last few days of my vacation with my family. I will head back to the office on Monday.
I finished December $81 in the black. It sounds pretty lame, but it's actually excellent because I was able to use regular flex money to pay for the gifts I bought and the trip we took -- I didn't even need to use the $500 I saved and budgeted! I also had enough for that coat I bought that I wasn't supposed to, but those J. Crew e-mails got me!
So, I moved that $500 I saved for Christmas into my vacation fund. I am going to take a major vacation this year and at least one or two mini-ones, since I didn't do anything in 2008 (I was too focused on paying off my debt ahead of schedule, which is exactly what I did!).
Now I am working on my goals for 2009. Most of them are not financial, but, of course, most of them will require moe-nay, so my money has to be right so I can do those other things.
I will let you know what those goals are as soon as I figure them out!

Happy New Year! :)
