I have to admit my dh is a little hoarder. lol But I would like to declutter the shed and to finally get him to put up the metal shelves so that I can organize his stuff he uses with labels so that he doesn't take everything out. You should see the closet in our office, it is strictly his, I don't dare open it. But I would like to do that for him since he works so hard.
For me personally just to take better care of myself, more walking when its warm on certain days.Maggi

My one goal would be to have $3000 in an emergency fund by December 31, 2012. It's at $1000 right now. So, I'll have to put a minimum of around $167 each month.
Emergency Fund $1500
