February 2014 Results

February is officially over! Here is my total review of the month:

2014 Goals:

1. Increase savings account to $1,000 - PASS - Savings aren't up to $1,000, but I am over $500!
2. Demolish $10,000 worth of debt - FAIL - But I did increase the amount paid off when compared to the January results!
3. NO OVERDRAFT FEES! - PASS - I didn't have any.
4. Clear out clutter. - PASS - I made progress in February.
5. Continue going to Crossfit (affiliate link) 3x/week - FAIL - The very last few days of January and the beginning of February I didn't go. First, I was sick with sinus congestion and couldn't breathe. Then my mom had surgery and I was left to do the farm work while my parents were out of town for her surgery. After that, I worked out 2-3x/week. I am hoping to get back on track with this goal this month.
6. Paleo (affiliate link) 80/20 and eat down my non-Paleo food stores without replacement - PASSish - I didn't do Paleo, but I am eating down my stores without replacement. When I re-organized my food (part 1, part 2) I got it condensed down to less shelves!
7. Loose weight and continue to tone-up - PASSish? - I don't think I lost anything in February, but I didn't gain.
8. Continue to NOT chew my fingernails - PASS - I think I'm cured :)
9. More books, shoes and clothes out of my horde than new ones coming in. - PASS - net reduction of 13 books for the year, and more clothes gone (see Thing Thursday posts: here, here, and here).
10. Read 52 books in 2014, that averages to 1/week - PASSish - I am one book behind, but I am currently reading 2 books that I'm almost finished with.
11. Find areas to scale back involvement so I have more free time at home - FAIL - I'm still trying to figure out where to cut back on my schedule.
12. Spend more time with family, friends and my pets! - FAIL - See #11 above.
