I’m terribly late with posting my goals for the month, but as always I’ve been plugging away since March 1st. After reviewing my past monthly goals posts, I’ve realized they are in desperate need of a makeover, so I’m trying something new this month with how I’m listing them. I’d love to hear your thoughts on the new layout!

This month is a unique one because I received my tax refund and I’m headed to Dubai and Abu Dhabi next week. Buying my (fourth) new laptop also hit the list despite how badly I just wanted to sock that money away into savings. It’s also both mine and my BF’s birthday month, so there were some additional line items added it to cover those expenses. It’s a pretty busy month all around!
