Sticking to my resolutions…..(and a free book for you!)

By Eve on Jan 8, 2009 in Money

My two biggest resolutions for 2009 were to get a better handle on the house, and not have to spend ALL my free time cleaning and getting no where! And to stick to a budget. So far so good, I have flylady.com to help me with the house, I absolutely love her plans, and it really does help, waking up to a clean sink makes life so much easier!! No more wasting the day away ‘trying’ to clean! I have been using a program called You Need A Budget
(YNAB) to help with our budget, similar to the Dave Ramsey idea, it works with a zero budget, taking all your income and expenses town to zero, factoring in savings too of course. I will be writing up a post about that program later, with more information.

EXPIRED: And as I promised in the title, I found a great freebie for you today from Oprah, it’s a free Suze Orman book download of her book, Your Money Plan 2009. I already downloaded my copy- over 200 pages! I have not had a chance to read it, but I am sure it is good. (and free this week only!) I am certain that will help with my budgeting and saving resolution!

Other resolutions for this year were the typical ones- loose weight, make more money, be a better wife, etc. etc. We will see how those go! LOL
