JANUARY 20, 2023

Did you make 2023 financial goals ? We decided on one big audacious financial goal for the year, and it’s a doozy! The last time we wrote numbers-driven financial goals was 2019. That was the year that we made the goal of paying off the last of our non-mortgage debts and we achieved it by September of that year.

Welcome to my first “How We Frugal-ed” recap of 2020. Frugal living is NOT about feeling deprived. Frugal living is being intentional with our money and creative with our resources, so we have more to put towards the things that are important to us. Frugal Kitchen in January: Meal Plan.

This money gets sent automatically to the 529 accounts we set up for our girls in 2020. I started searching and test drove a pre-owned Highlander in January 2020. But by the end of 2020, I started looking again for a pre-owned vehicle. This money will go towards paying the actual medical bills from the injury.

I donated plasma 4 times in May which is short of my goal of 8 times. My beautiful petunias in 2020. I made quite a bit more from the 4th quarter of 2020 where I do most of my Christmas shopping. In fact, it was my lowest month for the year, but regardless, $321 is still THREE HUNDRED TWENTY-ONE DOLLARS! Rakuten: $11.31.

In January 2020, we booked round-trip flights to Paris for the four of us. I donated plasma 5 times in February which is short of my goal of 8 times. I had an unexpected surprise hit my credit card in February. Honestly, it was months in the making, but at one time, I didn’t think I would ever see the money.

We’ve had an Aflac Accident plan for many years and have never needed it until the fall of 2020 when we used it twice. I donated plasma 5 times in March which is short of my goal of 8 times. This reimbursement is from a foot injury I sustained while running back in September. Plasma earnings: $207.
