March Monthly Goals February 27, 2009
Posted by gmbmfb in : budget, monthly goals , trackbackHere is my monthly budget for March. A few things are different from the February budget – namely I dropped my Entertainment category down to $50 since I purchased ski equipment and a ski pass. I also don’t have to pay MSP or Hydro for the next 3 months (both are billed in 3-month blocks).
Also my Personal Care category is up to $90 b/c I will probably run out of face cream and eye cream. Plus I want to buy a new face cleanser and I need some feminine products as well. Fingers crossed that I don’t actually spend the entire $90!
March Goals:
- Work out 5-6 days per week. Can be rock climbing, running, gym, skiing, or a combination of those things. BF is all about going skiing and then going climbing right afterwards. That’s something I would like to do on a regular basis. But that would just count as one work out.
- $300 into Retirement Portfolio.
- $600 into Travel Fund. An extra $50 above and beyond what I would normally contribute.
- Do something social with friends once per week. This might be hard to do, but I’ll be home twice in March, so I should be able to accomplish this.
- Stay within $100 travel budget. 1 of the 2 weekends BF will definitely be able to drive me, since he’ll be coming over as well. But the other weekend I will probably have to figure out how to get to and from the ferry terminal myself, since he plans on climbing Mt. Baker or something.
- List at least 3 things for sale on Craigslist or eBay.
- Organize all my tax paperwork. It takes forever to get all of my statements.
