short term goals
Finish my class successfully.
Lose 100+ pounds
Quit focusing on money
Learn to live within my means.

long term goals
Save Money
Pay off credit cards and car

I'm on lists for section 8 vouchers and well if I can get a nicer apt with amenities I won't necessarily need to buy a house. But I'm going to try to put myself in position to buy if at all possible.

I decided to keep my job. I hope the raise really helps me. get money saved and debts paid. I need to start living within means.

I show up for class every week. Even when I'm tired and don't want to go. I'm analyzing how I use credit. I paid for my class with a personal loan so I wasn't worrying about money every month. I have a repayment plan, a budget that I adjust as things change, sometimes monthly. I'm working on varies ways to save money.
