1: Earn a promotion at work. Yes.
2: Initiate sex at least 2x a week. No.
3: Get back into my regular work out routine. No.
4: Follow through with health recommendations made by my doctors. Yes.
5: Build e-fund to cover at least 6 months of living expenses. No.
6: Focus on keeping up with household chores/cleaning. Ish.
7: Read 20 new books during 2015. Only if textbooks count.
8: Drink the recommended amount of water every day. Yes.
9: Eliminate soda from my regular diet. Yes.


So, that's yes to four, no to three, and kind of to two.
I can't decide if that's a good completion rate or not. Haha.

Mine were deleted so I can't go down the list and remember them all, but I'm pretty sure I failed most of them.

1: Read a book a month (Nope. I am only on my 6th for the year right now.)
2: Get in shape (Nope. My arms are awesome and that's about it.)
3: Eat vegetables every day (Almost! During first trimester there were some days I simply couldn't uphold this item, but otherwise I totally rocked it.)

I can't remember any more so we'll just say they're a no.

Personal Goals:
1) Read more books (not sure what yet) No
2) Get into a good workout program/routine No 
3) Constantly declutter and purge "stuff" Yes
4) Complete wedding scrapbook No
5) Write more notes and letters to friends/family No
6) Build photography portfolio and aquire more equipment No
(I basically failed personal goals but I feel I succeeded in so many areas for my personal life with a new amazing job, H and I are doing so great in our marriage, I'm finally finding friends in my town, so even though I did not complete basically any of these goals I'm trying to count this a win...)

Financial Goals:
1) Pay off H's car loan Yes!!!!
2) Build E-Fund 4 months living expenses No, but SO close! 
3) Finalize and stick to budget I made great progress and have almost found what has worked for us I just need to be a little more diligent. 
4) Save $$ in general Yes
5) Keep building retirement and set H's up I haven't set H's up yet. He was just eligible in September for his plan. I still have time. We will see if it happens. If not January is shaping up to be VERY busy with To-Do's!

I feel we really tried super hard on our finances this year and did a lot better than our previous year so Financial Goals I feel satisfied with. I am looking forward to having an even better financial plan next year and getting even better

I don't even want to C&P mine because it was a huge fail on all fronts.  It wasn't a terrible year or anything, but I really didn't accomplish any of those goals.

[awick14]

1. Pay off all credit cards- done
2. Pay off 60% of our line of credit- we paid off about 50%
3. Go camping more then this year -we went camping way more then normal.
4. Work out 4-5 days a week- depending on the week, I'd say this was probably 50%
5. Run a 10k under 1 hr 10 mins (a 21 min PR)- didn't even run in the 10k I signed up for
6. Get at least 6 home renos done off of our master list. (Some are $$$$ and some are $)- we did 1, lol!
