20K

Today is the magical day. We are under the 20K mark in imaginary land!!! After a couple (ok 4) days of not so good solitaire (the survival tournament messed me up on how to plan and I finally remembered again) I have turned it around and cashed out 900+ in 3 days. Which gets us to the magical number of being officially unoffically below the 20K mark, we are now sitting at 19,989!!!!

Go us!!!

I'm thinking we could pay this thing off the last week of July. I mentioned to Susan if there was any way to go ahead and send the last 5,000 from the Vanguard account and she basically said she didn't know how we couldn't....LOL. So if we can stay at a pace of paying 5,000 per month through July, then add the 5,000 from the Vanguard account that last week of July, we will be done!!! Totally debt free!!!!

Mortgage, Work, and Such

The mortgage is defenitely coming along. In imaginary land, we are at the 21.5K level, in the real world, we are out 26.8K. The 26.8K will be coming down by well over 2000 tomorrow once we get the other Paypal payment into the credit union account. Should be able to make close to a 2300 dollar payment. That will be nice and get the mortgage down to 24.5K level.

Work has defenitely been going crazy until today. I pretty much refused to do anything today. I had had enough. There had been 4 days in a row (yes, including Sunday) that I busted my butt. I love getting phone calls at 4pm on a Friday asking me to come up with a grant and to somehow spend 500K. The crazy thing is we will be able to offer 2, if not 3 new services to our hospitals. We will have the Telestroke program, the TelCardiology program, and hopefully the TeleRadiology program. I have a meeting with Radiology next Thursday to talk that one over. Not to mention I have also been working with Medicaid to get our two programs to join together. That will bring out FCC total up to 5.8 Million. If nothing else, that will look good on a resume :-)

March Net Worth

Yet, it happened. With the adjustment for the tax situation, we had a negative net worth for March. We will also probably have a second month of it in April.

Here are the numbers:

Net Worth: 122,456.89 -1,291.89 -1.04%
Net Worth w/o Home: 55,310.09 -12.43%
Net Worth w/o Home or IRA: 22,442.37 -24.74%

YTD:
Net Worth: +3.44%
Net Worth w/o Home: -11.35%
Net Worth w/o Home or IRA: -13.57%

At the start of the month, we are down another 5,576.92 because of having to pay the taxes. I am adjusting for the quarterlies as well, so April should be the last month of losses.
