- 10% raise this year, which is the maximum our company allowed for 2012! - I finished up my 2nd bachelor's degree and had all A's this year. - Finally got off our butts and refinanced our house. Went from 30 yrs. @ 4.65% to 15 yrs. @ 2.85%. I thought rates were low when we purchased!
This year was a year of survival. I guess technically I got a new job. It was temp to hire and I was hired. I love the people, the work is fine. I also had an incredible baby. Didn't mean to, but he's the most wonderful guy ever, just like his daddy. Financially speaking this year was a big, fat fail. We maxed out our cc, have tons of medical debt, all that fun. It's going to make 2013 really rough. Overall though, great year.
