Saving Without a Goal

I'm reviving this blog.  I've found it difficult to get excited to save without a concrete goal, but I have one now.  Our family does OK financially even though we live on one income.  Our needs and a lot of our wants are met.  However, there is a potential question mark trouble on the horizon with our income, so I want to be prepared with a heftier emergency fund.

My goal this year is to save 10K.  We already save for retirement, so this is just extra padding for our savings account.  $833/mo will be kind of tough.  We'll see if I can do it.
