Another great month! My true test will be to stay within my travel budget. Considering the dismal state of financial affairs in Greece right now, I’m not sure what’s going to happen. But to be honest, I’m just happy to be going away on a vacation, so I’m not going to complain!
How was your September? How did you fare with meeting your goals?
Make sure you have travel insurance!!!
Wow you did good! I didn't do nearly as good as you.
I am awestruck and totally dropped jaw right now.Three words.You Are Awesome.
Your my hero Happy Homeowner!Hope you have a great time!!
Awesome!!!! Have a great time on vacation, youcertainly earned it!!!
Wow..I'm now inspired to actually set some goals for myself again. Have a wonderful trip.
Congrats on the amazing progress toward your goals! I don't think you could consider any of them a failure when you accomplished so much!I don't set monthly goals – I probably should, but I'm terrified of failing to meet them and getting depressed. I guess my monthly goals are keeping my accounts in the black.
Hope you're enjoying your vacation right now! You've earned it.
That's crazy-impressive. Good work!
Wow you did all that in a month? Amazing! Hope you're having a good time in Greece!
Love your blog! So glad that I found it.
You should be proud of all your accomplishments. Good work!
Great job on achieving your September goals. I did well myself, achieving at least half of my goals.
Thank you all for the wonderful comments. This kind of supportive is what keeps me going
