This was a $65.05 increase from last year ($0).
Missed my 50% saving target. This month income was a bit larger than normal. I had a total of 3 biweekly paychecks. The sequester delayed my December paycheck to January and I got a 443 bonus for 2014. Whoop.
I needed a break so I bought a ticket to Hawaii. My first vacation in 26 years. I'm 26 year old so that should tell you something. My trip is in June so I'll bring back some pictures.
In other good news my work schedule is now 6:00 am to 6:30 pm and 5 on Saturday. My OT increased from 35 to 40 hours per pay period. I'm so tired and my brain is not working good. Please ignore if my sentence structure and grammar is a bit off.
