Halfway

We are now officially half way through the year. Can you believe it is already June! And in the world of Fumbled Returns, that means a quick review of my resolutions.

Debt reduction plan is progressing but slower than I had anticipated but progress is progress so I am going to count it at least a partial success. Though, something tells me that I may not be doing so well in the very near future. I’ll save that for a possible future post. Hopefully not but , oh never mind.

On with the rest of my resolutions.

I picked up 4 out of my 5 new followers thanks to some creative blogging over at life with dogs, aka blog hops. Welcome aboard. This brings my total up to 16. I only need 4 more to reach my goal for the year!

I Have not quite re-started up my borderless fantasy football league yet so I cannot count any success towards that goal, YET.

And if anybody wants to help contribute to some content in this blog and join my Fumbled Returns Fantasy Football league, just send me an email and I’ll send you an invite. You could win the league and be a guest blogger all at the same time!

Despite a horribly terrible month of May, Starting Lineup -9.5% Bench -8.5% (I should have followed my own advice and cashed out) my investments are doing OK over all.
It still pains me a little to think that I had already passed my yearly goal in April, only to fall behind in only one month. But hey, I have the rest of the year to make up for lost ground. At least I am still way ahead of all the indexes.

My other endeavors have really fallen by the way side and I am just about to throw in the towel on those so it looks like at least one of my goals will not have a big ol’ smiley face next to it at the end of the year.

So that leaves me with my monthly picks for the month of June. (Drum roll please . . .)
