Goals for the week,...

Yeah, I hear that sigh in the background...I have done it myself over and over again as we looked over our financial goals for this past year. Hubby and I talked at length last night and decided that year long goals, even monthly ones seemed way to daunting for us. But, when we changed it to WEEKLY goals, we could make more headway and feel like we were accomplishing something!

So, this weeks goals are (we go Wed morning to Tuesday night simply because that's when he gets paid):

1. NO eating out this week.
2. Stash $50 into emergency fund
3. NO spending any cash unless agreed on (we took allowances away so that we would become more disciplined ourselves)
4. Stay within our $15 budget at the fair (we get in free, and are going to allow the kids to either ride 2 rides, or have an "elephant ear") and STAND BY THEIR CHOICE.

That sounds simple, right? Well, we are learning discipline in the area of cash, and baby steps need to be taken. I will keep this updated as often as possible, because that helps hold me accountable.
