Weekly Money Check up {04/23}

1. The most I’ve spent this last week was on my cell phone.

2. Today I am thankful for a great weekend. My grandparents finally got to visit my place. I also took some updated photos so hopefully I’ll have time to work on a blog post this week showing you all how I’ve decorated.

3. Money can’t buy happiness. One free thing I did last week that made me happy was organize and clean my house. Granted it was because my grandparents were coming over, but I’m glad it was done.

4. I will consider this week a success if I lose 2 pounds. I kinda stalled a bit earlier in the month, but I went to the gym on saturday, so here’s to starting a new routine again.

5. I am currently wearing Jeans, a grey and white striped hoodie, earrings and glasses. It’s out of uniform at work today for the kiddies so the staff get’s to dress down as well.

Weekly Money Check Up {04/09}

1. The most I’ve spent this last week was on a Mirror for my front entrance. I got it for 15% off.

2. Today I am thankful for Easter Monday Holiday. It’s a nice day off work for me and I’m able to get a ton of stuff done around the house. I might even take photos..maybe.

3. Money can’t buy happiness. One free thing I did last week that made me happy was quit the part time job. I know I’m somewhat stupid for doing it, but come on. Working 25 hrs a week onto of the 40hrs I already work not to mention having to plan my life 3 weeks in advance was not worth the extra cash I would have been making.

4. I will consider this week a success if I make it to the gym at least once. I can’t remember the last time I’ve been.

5. This Easter I went with my family to visit my aunt and uncle in Buffalo. My grandparents were already there and we had a great lunch and dinner.

Weekly Money Check Up {04/02}

1. The most I’ve spent this last week was on Car Insurance. If we are not counting my mortgage.

2. Today I am thankful for a relaxing weekend. I visited with my best friend and her new baby (as well as the rest of her family), moved some stuff from my parents and reorganized my family room. I promise photos to come soon.

3. Money can’t buy happiness. One free thing I did last week that made me happy was visiting with Cassie and getting to meet her beautiful new baby.

4. I will consider this week a success if I figure out what the heck to do about the stress in my life.

5. I started my blog because it was the cool thing to do at the time. Seriously thou, I’ve had several blogs. I started this one in particular because my last domain name didn’t suit me anymore and while I make pennies off this blog it’s just something I do to pass the time, hence the title Waste my time.

Weekly Money Check Up {03/26}

1. The most I’ve spent this last week was on Clothes for a part time job that I’m not even sure if I’m keeping. Thankfully all the tags remain on the clothes and can be returned anytime.

2. Today I am thankful for sleep. I got a good amount of sleep last night and hopefully I’ll be able to stay awake till 10pm, because thats what time I work till this evening

3. Money can’t buy happiness. One free thing I did last week that made me happy was helping my mom with a Lupus fashion show/fundraiser that she was in.

4. I will consider this week a success if I contact my utility companies on Thursday and actually get to visit my best friend who had a baby girl last Wednesday.

5. One thing I love about my home is the fact that It’s all mine and I can decorate it anyway I please.

Weekly Money Check Up {03/19}

1. The most I’ve spent this last week was on my mortgage, but since that’s a bi weekly payment I guess I would have to pick my internet. I had to pay for 2 months and a stupid activation fee. I hate hate setting up new accounts. Such a stupid money grab.

2. Today I am thankful for not a while lot. Stupid construction woke me up earlier then I needed to be, but at least I’m going to be back in a routine since March Break is over.

3. Money can’t buy happiness. One free thing I did last week that made me happy was figure out where I wanted a bunch of things to go in my house and help my dad hang them. I promise photos are coming soon. I’m just waiting for my window shutters.

4. I will consider this week a success if I get to bed early! I have a feeling I’m going to be really tired after this whole 2 job thing starts tomorrow.

5. If I could afford one unnecessary luxury, I would pay for someone to clean my house. Granted I don’t have a huge house, but then I wouldn’t need to have a vacuum. I still haven’t figured out where to store the damn thing so it sits in the living room.
