Merry Christmas!!! You are correct, Huskies shed before and after winter, growing different undercoats to keep warmer/cooler.

[@NotDoneYetDebtJourney]

Love the oh crap fund, awesome idea.

[@KatieoftheHouse]

Isn’t it?! I loved that 😊

[@Divasbudgeting]

Merry Christmas ❤ awesome job to everyone for all the hard work. Hope you have a wonderful day

[@authenticallyallison]

Feel better Katie! And also enjoy your break! I've always wanted a husky but have definitely heard they are very high maintenance dogs. I'm not allowed to have any anyways at the moment 😂

[@KatieoftheHouse]

They are SO high maintenance 😂 Loki is high maintenance in personality, too 😆 always such a big baby! But we love him!

[@terryhenderson424]

Certainly the early '25 goal is to be a little tighter with left over money being set aside and in general. Today, we take some budgeted money out of one of the accounts and also the left over for sugar bowling. AND we will have more left over money out of that account than weve had either of the last 2 or 3 months .

[@SaraBudgetOrganized...ish...]

Merry Christmas!! Great transfers this week! I hope you feel better soon! Well done everyone! I live in the Netherlands, but no worries! We transferred €450 to the Window Replacement Fund, €1060 to our vacation sinking funds, and put additional €25 to our EF to reach the goal we had set for 2024.

[@KatieoftheHouse]

Thank you, Sara! I should have said Europe 😂 Yay for reaching your EF goal! And that’s a nice chunk to the window fund 🎉 Merry Christmas to you!

[@FIRE_DrNinjaTurtle]

Happy Holidays

[@KatieoftheHouse]

Same to you! ☺️

[@jessesmith4196]

I feel you, battling sinus infection or upper respiratory infection myself 😞. Hope your holidays get better! Happy Holidays!

[@KatieoftheHouse]

I’m sorry you are still under the weather, Jesse 😩 Feel better soon!

[@sabahatnaheed1435]

Merry Christmas to you and family. You guys have done such a good job being so consistent with your transfers. Honestly, it’s such an inspiration. I hope to make more transfers in 2025. Get well soon

[@KatieoftheHouse]

Thank you, Cat! Merry Christmas to you!!

[@PenniesNotPerfection]

Merry Christmas! It seems everyone is sick these days. Hope y’all feel better! Great job working on the debt this week.

[@KatieoftheHouse]

Thank you, Mary! It’s no fun being sick this time of year, but it certainly is going around. Merry Christmas to you!

[@mrachel3]

Christmas has definitely snuck up. Someone told me the other day that there were 5 fewer days between Thanksgiving and Christmas this year. If accurate, that does explain it.

[@KatieoftheHouse]

That definitely does make sense! It felt so fast!

[@OrdinaryEverydays]

Awesome job on your consistency! And thank you for the share - it DOES feel like a Christmas gift to myself 😍🏡 It’s such a big purchase that it’s a little nerve wracking though. I hope you and family feel better soon and kick the crud! Merry Christmas! 🎄

[@KatieoftheHouse]

Thank you so much! I get being nervous about it! It’s a HUGE purchase, but hopefully it will only grow in value and it will give you such a beautiful, happy home ❤️

[@debrasjourney]

Hi Katie, feel better. I’m a little under the weather myself. Have a merry Christmas and enjoy your time with your family.! 🎉❤

[@KatieoftheHouse]

It’s no fun to be sick this time of year! I hope you feel better, too. Merry Christmas, Debra!

[@HB-kq4zw]

Merry Christmas ❤❤❤

[@KatieoftheHouse]

Merry Christmas!

[@libbysworld7649]

Great transfers everyone! Merry Christmas to everyone who celebrates. Katie I hope you and your family start to feel better. Sucks being sick during the holidays. Hubby got a travel reimbursement and with what they paid him extra for mileage $240 (he drove a lot with our car), we were able to make an additional last minute contribution to our vehicle maintenance fund. Which is always needed. Hubby will be getting new tires on his truck in the spring. That will be about $800 - $1200 but we will be ready for that and any other general maintenance that occurs. I bumped up our monthly contribution to $200 or $100 a pay. That should help as well.

[@KatieoftheHouse]

It’s definitely not fun to be sick during the holidays! Thankfully it’s not too bad. I’m starting to feel better 🙂 Nice job getting that money to the car maintenance fund. That’s definitely something that can never have too much! Merry Christmas to you and your family 🎄❤️

[@stefsonabudget]

Great job Katie! Consistency is the key ingredient 👏🏻. Merry Christmas and happy new year. Enjoy your family 🥰🥰

[@KatieoftheHouse]

Thank you, Stef! Merry Christmas to you and your family 🎄❤️

[@angbudgetanddebt]

What a great amount towards the Highlander between the 3!! Merry Christmas! I went over too! 😮

[@KatieoftheHouse]

Thank you! Ugh, I feel like I go over every year, Ang, but things are just so expensive now and I always feel like I didn’t do enough 😩

[@angbudgetanddebt]

@ exactly! I feel this! Merry Christmas! You did awesome!

[@debbiey9452]

Merry Christmas! I hope you and your family feel better soon.

[@KatieoftheHouse]

Merry Christmas! Thank you!

Merry Christmas Katie! Great video. Feel better!!!

[@KatieoftheHouse]

Thank you! 🥰

[@a2zbudgets101]

Happy Holidays, Katie!❤❤

[@KatieoftheHouse]

Thank you! Same to you! ❤️❤️

[@MillennialLifeAndFinances]

I did my second transfer this month towards my student loans. I am so so so so close to getting these paid off. I've been paying them since 2012!!! I expect to pay this last one off by April if I keep this momentum going. Fingers crossed 🤞🏼

[@KatieoftheHouse]

Heck yes! I’m so glad you are almost done! 🎉🙌🏼

[@KatieoftheHouse]

Just subbed to your channel by the way! 🥰

[@terryhenderson424]

Almost $2400 just from the second pay period on a month you expected to have a lower Highlander amount. I remember the Highlander minimum payment to be something like a bit over $700. Disregarding interest and accurate numbers, you shaved a good 3 months off the back end of that loan just this week.

[@KatieoftheHouse]

Yes, you’re correct! The minimum is $753! So it’s a about three months worth of payments that we knocked out 😄

[@terryhenderson424]

@KatieoftheHouse And now that the Highlander is up front and center, I will remember $753!

[@terryhenderson424]

@KatieoftheHouse Periodically in the back of your mind with a phone calculator assist, divide the Highlander balance by $753 to bask in the number of remaining months on the loan.

[@U2BearCat]

Thanksgiving was really late this year so there really was less time to do any Christmas shopping.

[@KatieoftheHouse]

So true! It just flew by!

[@U2BearCat]

Happy Holidays to everyone. Just got my credit card statement. Ouch. Spent a bit too much.

[@KatieoftheHouse]

Ugh, we did, too! I feel like we do every year… Happy holidays to you though! I hope you enjoy ❤️

[@thomaschew2191]

Merry Christmas Y'all!

[@KatieoftheHouse]

Merry Christmas to you and Sue!

[@haileyreign]

Hey Katie!! Merry Christmas!! 🤍🤗✨️🎄 I transferred $155 to my emergency fund to reach $1500! 🎉🎉🎉 Also my family member I'm helping save was able to cover a medical bill from their savings! I'm so proud of them ❤🥹

[@KatieoftheHouse]

Yay for that EF balance 🎉 Aw I’m so happy your family member was able to do that! You are such a good example 🥹❤️

[@buyerclub2]

Hey, feel better. Heres my last question of 2024. Why do YTbrs always seem concerned bout their posting schedule. Is it you are worried about the YTR algorithim, or your audience worrying about you? Given you make these, mainly for self motivation, and perhaps to educate anahd have fun, shouldn't you just put them out on your scheduke. I promise I would still write a comment when I saw one, even if it wasnt on a regular schedule.😁

[@buyerclub2]

And I laughed at the doggie/ transistions story. (No I did not notice) And I hope it was/is/willbe a great Christmas time for you too.)

[@PenniesNotPerfection]

Not Katie obviously but I worry when I’m consistent then miss a normal posting. I guess I assume people will notice but you are probably right that it won’t matter and we should do our own schedule.

[@buyerclub2]

@@PenniesNotPerfection Thanks for the reply, and I watch you too sometimes.

[@KatieoftheHouse]

Thank you, Jon! I always worry about people who I watch who post consistently and that don’t for a while. I’m always thinking “I hope they are ok.” And I just don’t want anyone to think that if I am inconsistent for a bit. I doubt anyone would notice, but just in case 😂
