Grand plans and reality

I had all this time off work, with grand plans of elaborate posts and long series. All I actually accomplished was getting the checkbook balanced. But it is very balanced, and I’m feeling more up-to-date than I have in a good long while.

We made a serious dent in credit card debt, despite the holidays, and most importantly kept it from growing. We also started an online saving account with ING. We’ve got money stashed in various checking accounts, adding up to an emergency fund, but in 2009, I’d like to be more deliberate about savings. More deliberate about everything, really, including this blog. Look for changes over the next few weeks, from improved content to some design adjustments.

Happy new year!
