12-31-19


My 2019 focus word was NOURISH.

Successes through the year: Met savings goal, and transitioned to Minto for financial tracking, allowing for more visibility and less friction.  Invested in two more Longview duplexes, putting our Seattle investment angst on hold.  I can’t say I didn’t buy any clothes in 2019, but I would call it pretty close to a freeze.  Supported Mom in a move, another contemplated move, and life in general. 

2019 Progress on 5 year goals written in 2017:  Not bogged down with commitments, life  is a good mix of being at home and out in the world.  Continued focus on spending for experiences rather than stuff, as our huge food, entertaining, and entertainment budgets can attest.

Areas where I fell short:  No trip to Chicago.  Didn’t do a good job of taking vacation or managing work stress.  Didn’t invest enough energy in my faith or my LinkedIn account.  And no progress on wellness or weight loss.  Grateful to be healthier here in Seattle, but not very comfortable in my skin.

So long to 2019 and this decade!
