I've simplified my 2013 goals and resolutions

I have not been doing well with the way I approached goal/resolution setting for this year. Last year I had very tangible, to do list type of goals and they worked out well in terms of actually doing them. This year's aren't working as well so I have revised them. Here's the new ones, how I did in February and plans for March.

_________________GOALS_________________

Feel energetic and strong

Exercise daily - join gym if needed

March Plans: Pilates session weekly; give that dog those walks
February Results: Pilates session weekly; some walks by self or with dog; visited lower cost gym (discount through health insurance) which I will join when PT says ok

_______________RESOLUTIONS_______________

Save as much extra as possible for retirement

YTD Savings: $837.71

February Savings - $ 237.63

$ 29.63 - buying groceries/household goods/toiletries on Wednesdays for 5% senior discount & using coupons

$ 60 - did not call plumber or appliance repair person to fix leak from washer; found it was the drain hose, bought over the internet (special hose for this washer) and hubby installed

$ 60 - found that "Teeny Greenies" for the Poodle Princess are less if ordered through Amazon shopping instead of 1-800 Pet Meds. Next year we'll save $80 on this and puppsie will continue to get her dental treat every day

$50 - earned this amount on a health care debit card by completing some online assessments

$10 - discounted debit card for coffee place

$23 - coupons for annual car oil change, etc.

Fix Things Up!
