june 2015

it's a beautiful morning! a season of change is upon us (literally, since summer starts this month!), a month full of hope and promise! here's my box full of optimism for the month ahead...

fiscal
1. make minimum $400.00 payment on debt snowball #1 (using fed tax refund; $500 would be better) (with goal of having #1 paid off by end of july) $100.00 paid. Should make another $100.00 payment before end of month.
2. make a minimum $300.00 payment on debt snowball #2 ($350.00 would be better; this is the last month to use it and then it's gazelle mode towards pay off!) $200.00 paid. need to make at least another $100.00 payment but $400.00 would be better.
3. open a savings account - i'm THIS close to the $300.00 minimum contemplating using what i've saved ($300.00) to go towards my debt...hard to have savings when you have debt.
4. final car insurance payment before renewal period (<$100.00)
5. delete candy mania off phone, leaving only solitare AND drop data down to 2 GB (to drop base rate down to <$60.00)
*even though i should knock out snowball #1 first because it is the smaller amount, i'm also trying to bring #2 down to a level that is doable in 6 months. my aunt & uncle gave me money for my birthday for my debt pay-down as they are "impressed" with my determination to get this thing knocked out...so, i have more money to play with than in any other given month.

physical
1. food challenge has begun! 30 days of no CRAP! (no soda, no potato chips, no processed/non-organic foods)
2. physical challenge! minimum 5 days a week of activity (dance dvd, go for a walk, work up to a jog, movement combinations) -- this coupled with the food challenge should produce good results
3. one more month of b12 pills before i get my bloodwork retested
4. doctor appointments: lady doctor 6/1, dermo #1 6/2, dermo #2 6/12
5. quit -- i am serious about it this time and i think i'm finally ready to let go...
