A Fresh Look
by
Well isn't this a nice surprise? Updates across the board, and a new look everywhere you go. Luckily I had the last week of 2004 off from work so I was able to get in gear and finish the renovations.
Hopefully the highlights for 2005 will be the high school reunion, the "lower 48 states" roadtrip, and learning new programming languages, which will hopefully push me forward in my career.
I'm now blessed to have a comfortable $30K stashed away, and my financial goal is to have $50K by the end of the year. My long-term goal is to move out of the folk's house in the 2nd half of 2006. I won't be buying any big ticket items this year since I still have hefty car payments for a while, but I think at least the financial goal will be pretty realistic for the next 12 months.
Very excited about this year. Let's see how it goes.
