Goals for Thanksgiving and after:

Thanksgiving
-don't eat too much
-stick to list when shopping on Black Friday
-don't buy anything for me on Black Friday
-play a couple of board games with kids and nephew
-enjoy time with my family
-go for a walk each day no matter how chilly

After
-go to the gym at least 3 times a week
-open a higher interest savings account on line
-review budget
-work 5 hours of overtime

I think I actually created a good budget for the next 3 pay periods which is the next 6 weeks. I may have to tweak some things but it looks like I will have a good chunk of money left over every pay period for savings and Christmas shopping. There is something very reassuring about seeing it in writing

Hope everyone has a wonderful holiday.
