Main Goals

Financial:
1.  Pay all bills on time - so far so good.
2.  Make headway on paying the debts down - in case Orcas doesn't sell for years.  (Cut back expenses now so can save.)  Get debts paid off in two years.  Add no new debts is best way; then pay off slowly.
3.  Start putting more into retirement funds.
4.  Think about investing in retirement property if Orcas sells.  Goal is Port Angeles area and beachfront or lake with dock.  Aim to rent it for 6 months out of the year through agency.  If does well enough, invest in Cle Elum property.
5.  Fix the other house problems:  deck, paint, dry rot areas, fence boards, carpets and stair wood  (putting off for now other than repairing a couple of really bad boards on deck.
6.  Retirement - at least $250000 in cash and no debts.

Employment:

Short Term:  find some more fun activities for classes so students are happy and spread the word.

2.  increase French and Japanese skills - get into some classes for credit.

3.  find a way to make up for Fridays by working Sun, Tues, Wed. if possible saving Monday for yoga and Thurs for meetings.  However, Monday can also be sacrificed as necessary

Long Term:

1.  Japanese major will help with job apps
2.  $50,000 per year for me; 75+ for Glen - ha ha can't make his goal
 for him
3.  no debts
4.  hiking type job? at least part time - get paid for doing what I love
5.  keep looking for ideal job in case this one goes under - must not be more than an hour commute roundtrip, must pay enough, must be reasonably enjoyable and have good time off + benefits


Choices:

1  wait and see and just keep an eye on job postings for now - in case
2  Wait and see and get set up with temp agencies, tutoring website, and tutoring companies, apply to Sylvan and Seattle Language School - just in case
3.  Completely wait and see - pay comes until first of Sept.  Maybe good stuff will happen by then so I don't need all the other stuff.
