~$200.00 extra to something (Morgage of EF)
~Go over long term financial plan with hubby (get a better sketch)

Get my garden planted.
Get my Dear Jane quilt top finished.
List several items on ebay for extra cash

These are the main ones that I can think of now.

My goals for March:

Pay off at least 1/2 of a cc and pay off at least 1/2 of what I owe a doctor.

Stay away from clearance at stores....I did great in February. I kept saying to myself (in my head) those things steal my dreams of owning a summer home some day near the water.

Get coupons under control. I need to buy a coupon caddy.

Try new recipes that are inexpensive.

Drink more water and eat less.

Take vitamins every day.
