April goals

April 1st, 2011 at 03:06 pm

For April, I hope to pay off at least $1000 of debt. Our minimum debt payments now average about $975 to principal each month, so to get to $1000 I typically have to make at least a little extra payment. This month our interest payment is due on one of NT's student loans, and I sent some extra money to it in February and March, so even if we just make our regular payment that usually only pays interest, a bit of it will go to principal. So I don't think I'll have to do anything extra this month to hit $1000.

We finally heard back from our lawyer and have a meeting set up in April to discuss our estate planning wishes, so we'll make some progress on that this month.

AS sent me an interesting job opening that's in the same area of Minneapolis I currently work in. It's my favorite downtown location to work, so I'm excited to apply. I may work on that "pros and cons" list this month, too, to clarify what I like about this job. It'll help me see what's important so I don't end up accepting a new job that doesn't have some of the key ingredients to make me happy.

I don't have any ideas for my creative project/book to read, small-group get-together, or share-your-thoughts blog post for April yet. But warmer weather is clearing the cobwebs from my brain, so I'll think about it today and this weekend.

I'll probably post again soon today, once I have a chance to check and see if our mortgage payments went through.
