Happy New Year!

A touch early 'cause I never make it to midnight.  Too old for that stuff :)

2012 goal: Put $4000 into my Roth.  Done!  Woohoo!

2013 goal: Put $4500 into my Roth.

I was hoping to aim higher in 2013 but I would also like to put the windows in this year, and who knows what will happen with the whole cliff situation.  Best wishes to all!

Dividends

I love this time of year.  Aside from all of the Christmas cheer and feasting, there are dividends!  For me anyway :)  My yearly (and quarterly) dividends come.. almost like a Christmas present to myself.  Growing slowly but surely each year..

Monthly Update

Pay off student loan - 25.6%  (Down .2%)
Roth 2012 - 88.3%  (Up 8.9%)
Pay back savings - plumbing - 9%  (Up 3.5%)

 Tires goal is gone, one way or another :)  I actually didn't need tires just yet, probably not for another year.  Someone made a big goof.  At least, I hope that's what it was, an outright lie would just make me angry.  

The student loan is slipping backwards because of the gap between payments..  I must have paid early a couple of times and now I'm backing off for a bit.

Finally a bit of progress on paying back savings and some decent progress on my Roth, I'm gonna get there yet this year.  It is a good spot to be in.  And in another month I'll have to make a concerted effort to decide on new goals for next year.  How time flies!
