Happy New Year!! Hope everyone was safe last night and all is well today! I just hung out with my family last night so not very exciting here. We had snacks and watched the ball drop. It’s the same thing we do each year.
Today I got the tree taken down and all the decorations put away. The only things still up are the outdoor lights. Aaron worked all day today and I’m afraid of heights so those will have to wait. It looks like the holidays are over. I don’t know whether I’m glad or not about that.
Anyway, time to start a great new year. I only made one true goal (not a “Resolution”) for 2012, to not put anymore purchases on my Citi card. I’m really bad about using it for impulse buys when I can’t really afford something. So, I took the card out of my wallet and put it away. I’m only going to make payments on it for the year. If I can stick to this goal then this November, for Black Friday, I’m going to buy myself a new digital SLR camera. I’ve wanted one for a long time but never bought one. I’m bound and determined to do this so wish me luck.
As a smaller goal, I want to build up my savings so that means less spending over all. This one will be harder I think so I’m not as hopeful, but I’m gonna try.
To finish up today please take a look at my New Year’s look from yesterday. I figure just because I didn’t go out and do anything that’s no reason not to look all glam and such, lol.
