Welcome back to another monthly update from Root of Good! The new year is in full swing and off to a good start so far. We just got home from an 11 night cruise to Mexico out of San Francisco. And in two weeks we will set sail again for two weeks in the warm Caribbean waters.

While I'm at home for a few weeks at a time, it's always a scramble to take care of chores around the house, take care of some car maintenance, and keep an eye on my financials. It's not all productivity - we're also busy spending time with our kids and visiting with family and friends.

So far we've managed to dodge the worst of winter by escaping to warmer climates. And now that it's mid-February, winter is slowly withering away and it's getting nicer and warmer outdoors here in North Carolina. By the time we get home from our next cruise, spring might be in full swing!

On to our financial progress. January was a great month for our finances. Our net worth climbed by $89,000 to end the month at $3,322,000. Our January income of $4,117 was just a bit lower than our spending of $5,091 for the month.

Let's jump into the details from last month.
