The past few days I cashed in for $25 of AGCs from Swagbucks. After the monthly bonuses, I should have enough for January's $25, and then I'll start working on earning a $15 card.
I also cashed out for a $5 AGC from Bing Rewards today. I set my next goal to be a 500 SB gift card. By the time I have enough for that, I'll have Gold status. So instead of it being worth $5, it'll be worth $5.25 (cashing in for a $5 AGC from Sbs, leaving 50 SBs.)
I also finally achieved the 25,000 point level on Acheivemint . com. Of course, when I went to cash out they offered me a deal that I didn't resist. If I upped my reward goal to 50,000 points, they'd give me a free 5,000 points. Considering that it's taken me a year to get to 25,000 points ... 5,000 free points is a big deal. 
I'm hoping to get the needed 20k points by July (increased means of earning points and being more consistent *should* make this happen.)

Ok the other thing. I just had to brag on my bf a little bit. He called me tonight totally out of the blue and sang a Stevie Wonder song to me. 
That sure put a smile (read big grin) on my face.
It's hard to believe that just about seven months ago I was stressing out over whether or not to call him and ask him whether or not he wanted to give it a second go or not. How life changes.
December Snowflakes +1 :)

Not being noisy, just working on possible/probable 2014 goals.

Snafu - no problem.
As for my other goals ... well, I didn't really put much more to my EF, only put $2400 to my ROTH, and nothing to the FIRE fund. I decided mid-way that visiting with NE would take priority over my financial goals - for this year at least.
I am still planning on looking for a job near NE, starting in January (which is when we make our official notice of future plans to the school.) I doubt I'll be able to get a school librarian job right away, so am planning on making a wide scope. I'll be visiting NE during April, so hope to have several interviews set for that time. If not, I do have a paycheck through the end of July, so that gives me a little bit of flex time.
