New Year, New Resolutions

Most of you have probably already made (and perhaps even already broken ;-) your New Year's resolutions.  But if not, here is a suggestion for 2011--make (or reevaluate) a budget and try hard to stick to it!  What are your long-term goals?  What do you feel is important enough to invest your hard earned time and money in? 
My hubby and I recently sat down and reevaluated our budget.  Saving as much as we can is always a priority, but we realized there are a few categories we feel it important to invest some money and a whole lot of time in.  For us, we're focusing on: 1) our marriage, 2) our family, and 3) our health.  As my dad likes to joke, "Date nights are a lot cheaper than marriage counseling!" 
What is important to you?  Plan your budget accordingly and then stick to it!!
