Looking Forward

I’m more relaxed lately than I’ve been in, well, years.

One thing I know that has been helping is that I’ve been working out 3 times a week with my employee. We’re having a good time at the gym talking shop and keeping healthy.

For the first time in a long time I’m looking forward to a summer. For one reason or another bad things have always happened in the summer in my life. This year is going to be different.

Personal Cushion

I’ve got now almost $6,000 stashed away in my personal savings. My goal is to get that to 10K by the end of the year. 

I think that’s probably the second biggest contributing factor to my low stress level of late…money in the bank. Nothing feels better than knowing you’ve got some cash on hand. Once I max out at a 10K cushion, I’ll try and figure out some more creative ways to pay back my mother debt quicker.

Motherly Visit

Speaking of my mom, she drove up to Seattle and surprised me for lunch today! I know you don’t read here Mom, but thanks, you’re the best Mom I could have ever asked for.

I told my Mom that it was my goal to try and get her paid back by the end of next year. It’s going to take a ton of work to pull that off, and it’s a lofty goal, but it’s not entirely impossible. I think that would be great for both of us.

Side Project!

I’ve been working on my first side project as DK…that I’m really excited about. It’s been mulling around my head for a few months now, and I hope to launch it in the next week or so.

If you’re a fan of reading about my journey out of debt, stay tuned for the beta launch of this new project of mine, I guarantee you’ll like it.

More details soon…
