June Goals

With a big move planned for August, my goals need to reflect the upcoming changes in my life.

  1. $200 into my Emergency Fund--I'm still trying to build this up as much as possible. My account currently has $1,753.88. I want to have at least $2k in the account after my move.
  2. $200 into my down payment account--I'm not sure what I plan on doing with this account because I won't be able to buy a place while I'm in graduate school. My account currently has $3,277.83. However, I'm going to keep contributing to this account until I reach $4k or leave for graduate school.
  3. $200 into my moving fund--I'm going to try to contribute more, but this is a minimum. I've been selling stuff on half.com and Amazon; so I hope this account gets a healthy start in June. I'm not sure how much money I will need for the move and replacement of stuff, but I'm going to try to put away as much as possible. If I have any money left over (which I doubt), I will put the money in my emergency fund.
  4. Weight<130--I sound like a broken record. I was close a few months ago, but then I put the weight back on. I haven't been working very hard (or at all) with the recent changes...
  5. Drink at least 32 ounces of water at work. It's warm outside, so I need to be careful not get dehydrated. Plus, I think this will help with goal number 4.

Great goals for June. I still have to decide on mine.

I agree, your down payment fund is looking great. Kudo's on that!

excellent! I was just putting my june goals together too. so regarding the weight/broken record thing... maybe it would help to make it more specific? IE, certain number of calories burned/eaten a day, or something like that? I find that something I can track on a daily basis allows for more accountability...

Hmmm, this makes me want to maybe set a weight loss goal too!

Great goals! I would never be brave enough to have a public weight goal.
