Cousin Bernadette is having a fit today, so I am trying to keep her mind off shopping...I mean this is one of her favorite times to lure me out of the house shopping at the holiday sales....I am trying to show her how much "fun" cleaning the house can be and don't we have enough stuff??? But, she is itching to go out. I am telling her we can't afford to go out and spend, but we can go out for a nice walk....well, that is not helping much, and I can see she is going to be a handful for me this weekend. I am going to try to keep working on her.

I am still trying to snowflake everyday to my credit card. That $5 I may have spent on little junks is going into paying off that card. I want to get a long statement every month detailing all my payments. I just get such a kick out of that. Weird, but good!!!!

I am having my first paid vacation day this week (have to take care of an issue at home this week....would rather be having fun, but gotta do what I gotta do) for the first time in 2.5 years! All other vacation days and holidays in the recent past were unpaid which made for lesser paychecks which were bummers. I am so happy about this!!! So good to have a decent job with real benefits again!!!!!!

I am finding a ton of credit card receipts as I sort thru the stuff in my house. They are making me crazy....the shredder keeps running and running......How much did I spend on THAT???? (except for last night because I got home and passed out on the sofa)

I hope everyone has a great weekend! Let's remember our soldiers!
