It has been quite a year so far. I have not come anywhere near writing here once a week. It has been a busy one so far.
In February I moved forward by writing the last exam to get the professional designation I was going to school for. I accomplished something, finished it....have the letters RCM after my name.
About Mid-march I moved from the job and position I was in and got another job that specifically deals with my new certification in another city.
July left me single and staying with my parents.
September has meant the end of my debt. Took me a couple years but diligence has paid off. I may finally be starting to learn to live within my means. I have certainly learned what I want in my life and how I do want to spend the money I make. I am now starting to gear my budget and expenses to the lifestyle I want to live.
Now that fall is here and winter is not far off, it is time to find a permanent home for me....rent or own? Where? So many questions but at least I have realized I don't want to be house poor so maybe that will be a deciding factor in the next choice I make.
Fitness wise I have been riding my bike a couple times a week and walking as well. The fit is coming slowly.
I have also had a renewed interest in reading.I have read multiple books in the last couple of months. They include things by Lee Child, Nora Roberts, Monica Murphy and many others. I have stepped out of from the authors I have always known and expanded my reading repertoire. I joined a book club and have been reading a lot of books I would never have picked up.
Next on the list....learning Spanish. This is going to be the first step to my retirement plans. It will also make travel and vacation a much different experience.
