I had a really lovely, quiet New Year's Eve Weekend. Friday I caught up with some chores and spent the evening playing board games and enjoying dinner and drinks with friends. Yesterday I made black-eyed peas, creamy potato leek soup, and cranberry muffins and Ambi and Mordi brought over some cider, white wine, and a pumpkin cheesecake. We played a few boardgames and watched the firecrackers set off by the convention center from my garden.
Darling and I chose not to spend for the past two days because I did my monthly tabulations a little early :) I was really amazed by what I found. Basically, we earned way more than I realized: an average of $1,921.56/month. And I have to admit that we spent, on average, $98/month than we earned. Which is a bummer, and I'll give a more full background of where our money went in another post (it's already written, just needs editing), but I want to get my net worth out of the way first.
My net worth is, by the way, a total and complete bummer. My assets total $824.91, and my debt is $10,036.78. That gives me a total net worth of -$9,211.87. I haven't such sorry numbers since 2010...but again, we'll talk about why and how in an upcoming post, as I had friends on their way for lunch.
Hope everyone has a lovely New Year!

Sometimes debt reduction is two steps forward and one step back. It sounds like this year is going to see the back of this debt for good though.
Make a yearly, monthly and weekly budget including something for entertainment and until your healthcare kicks in something for that also.
Try and work everyday - sounds obvious but that the key.
