Ah, crap, sorry oneday. Hope you can still stay with us here at the 2025 party. :-)
I think we're doing well. It's been a year of adjusting attitudes and expectations more than anything, and progress can be slow (see my "how do you not kill your DH" thread for an example). But I have been very clear with him about my belief that we can live on a lot less than we are planning; he is not there yet, but he has started to at least joke about things like, "well, you could pack me a lunch everyday," which would have been unthinkable in years past (he goes out to lunch with the guys every freaking day). I'm also finding my own mental attitude changing; really focusing on the value of what I spend has me wanting less and less stuff and valuing my time more and more -- the only clothes I have bought this year were some gym clothes that I actually needed for Crossfit, I haven't paid for a haircut in over a year, and I have started trying the non-department-store cosmetic options for the few things I actually use. Not that I've gone cheap -- I do have a massively stupid car. :-) But I love that infinitely more than I enjoy clothes or makeup. And it feels good to move away from throwing money at crap that I don't care about. I think we'll be dropping some memberships this fall that we haven't been using, which, again, will help the budget a fair bit.
So right now, we're still at 2025. My secret hope is that I can convince DH to cut the current spend some and lower his ridiculous RE budget so that I can move up to an earlier group, like 2020 (I really don't see how we're going to spend 50% MORE than we do now, even with all the travel we want to do!). But he thinks 12 yrs is more likely, so 2025 is still our compromise.
