Snowflakes and other Progress

I've decided to add a list of snowflakes to the sidebar. This will help keep track of all of the snowflakes that come in throughout the month. So far, considering that I haven't had much free time the snowflakes are going well this month.

For the most part the snowflakes will go to the loan I'm focusing on repaying. Earlier this month I decided to use a big snowflake from my contract work and fully fund the emergency fund. I prefer thinking about as few things as possible at once. I combined the rest of the snowflakes and sent in a student loan payment. Both are highlighted on the progress bars I was finally able to figure out, also on the sidebar.

I would love to keep writing but I need to get some work done to keep the snowflakes falling.

Snowflakes

On the sidebar is a list of snowflakes for March. I'm going to try posting them for a month to see how it works out. Depending on the source they go straight to ING or my local bank. As a result sometimes I can't immediately put the money where I would like it to go. This will help me keep track. I'll also use it to help me decide the best ways to focus my snowflake earning efforts.

I decided to use the large snowflake from contract work to finish off my emergency fund. I like focusing on as few things as possible at once. So now all of my focus can go to day to day things and paying down all that debt.

As I type this I'm looking at real snowflakes falling from the sky. I hope that the snowflakes (real or financial) in your world are working for you.
