Goals for 2017: - Max out IRAs - Max out i401ks - Get tax poo poo together on time this year for business - Apply for new health care with subsidies before Trump poo poo hits the fan - Track spending and passive income to get a clearer picture of what we should be budgeting for to spend down less than $30k of our savings annually after this year - Paint the outside of our house ourselves to get it done cheaply (the last major project for our house) - Start a blog for fun/profit/keeping my writing skills sharp. One post per month at least. - Write one novel (only one!) by Christmas time for my MIL - Get involved in the homeschooling community to see what it's like and to build my social network out. - Invite more people over to our house for dinner/potlucks. I'm basically a stay at home mom now, and it's weird to not have a ton of stuff going on, but babies take a lot of work!

Congrats on the babby, Guest! spinst posted:Moved this month. Update: moana posted:Goals for 2017: Hahahaha, I'm not doing any of these goals except the novel. We're spending so much more money than I thought - like $5k/month. I might need to do a case study breakdown to see if we can live sustainably like this, because right now we only have like $1k or so for income. I'm considering either me or the husband getting a part time job at a place that gives health insurance to part timers (like Starbucks or Lowes). I guess my goal for this month is to reapply for health insurance.

Love the new place - hoping to stay here until I'm ready to buy!

Whatever, congrats to everyone on track with their goals! I've spent a whole year keeping a baby alive, and it's been pretty great! I'm only about a third of the way through the novel I'm writing for my MIL, going to ramp that up this month and next to try and get er dun before Christmas. The one major thing I got done: switching health insurance, which ended up saving us $1k a month (now that we don't have very much income). Woo!
