Aim for success, not perfection. Never give up your right to be wrong, because then you will lose the ability to learn new things and move forward with your life.

Goals:

Pay down credit card debt
Stick to my budget
Save 10% of my earnings
You girls are crazy. If you wash once a month and use vegetable oil & a hot comb every day you are set. This has given my hair a built in helmet. It just wont grow any longer but its hard as a rock!

i'm in... dont really care what it's called but i'm all for weekly updates because if you leave me alone for longer than that i'll be broke by the first check-in LOL
 
since the target is savings and debt reduction here are my goals for the next three months; in order of importance starting with the most important.
 
*catch-up my only 'late' bill
        300 dollars behind
 
* pay off remaining CC debt
         that's 700 dollars
 
* save for august vacations
          that's 1500 dollars
 
* save for my 'next big purchase' << it's a secret
           1,000 dollars
 
 
those are my big goals... but the mini 'to get me there' goals would be to stay on budget and eat 100% out of my kitchen at least 5 days a week (since most of my 'wastefullness' goes on food). i'd also like to put any money i have left over at the day before a pay-day to go towards my auto loan... it's sooo upside down right now i need to get that together.
