Unexpected

February 3rd, 2015 at 09:13 pm

I've been out of loop for last 3 weeks ,because of some news from my doctor. It is not bad news, just something we never thought about. Because of this I was I total denial and withdrawal and now I need to revisit our goals.

On good note, I received my tax refund today. I am planning to pay personal debt and pay off tires and rest put on EF. I know it is advices to pay cc debt as fast possible, but I feel like not fully funded EF and paid off cc not very good in emergency situation. So this time, I will fully fund EF, before making extra payments on cc.

Family time

We craved in and went to movie theater to see Big hero 6 movie. It is was good, kids enjoyed, I think we enjoyed as much as them. Tickets was $12 for all 4 of us and popcorn and drinks with unlimited refills was $13. So $25. I guess whole next week we will be staying in and enjoying free activities as family.

I was amazed how my kids grew over last half year, we went to movie theater last time in summer and they was talking, moving a lot, especially little one. This time they was both quiet and watch and enjoyed movie.

Christmas/birthday/vacation fund

January 12th, 2015 at 06:20 am

I know we suppose to save for EF first, but this money I earn doing stuff online, which most of the time come as gift cards, so not much of use for emergency.

So as Jan, 11-2015 here my earnings:

GC for Target $5.00 from swagbucks
Cash $25.00 from swagbucks
Cash $5.00 from gifthulk
Cash $5.00 from gifthulk
Cash $0.50 from qmee

With total: $40.50

I am not sure yet in which exactly fund it will go Christmas, or birthday, or vacation, but total for all funds need to be $5000 before December, 1-2015. This equivalents to saving $15.40 daily, which is quiet impossible right now, but I hope it will turn around.
