Been a While

October 31st, 2014 at 03:56 pm

I am alive and well. I have recently started a second job so I don't have much free time to be on the computer and I have been swamped at my day job. I am working 5AM to 9AM at a local retail store and 9AM to 5PM at my day job. I am exhausted by the time I get home!! But I made some financial mistakes that make this necessary right now. Then if I can continue I will get some more debt paid off.

I have decided to do the Dave Ramsey method and am excited to get started. I will try to keep you updated as to how it goes.

DS has decided to move in with his father, who is a functioning alcholic. I am concerned that my son will start to drink too much. But financially he is very responsible.

DD is working and making a car payment to her grandma. We pass in the night most of the time since I am usually in bed when she gets home. She is senior this year and the expenses are killing me.

That is about all going on in my life. I will try to be better about updating.

    I just thought of you yesterday while I was at the gym. I'm back on MyFitnessPal after a break over the summer. I hope the extra funds are helping you meet your goals. I think the Dave Ramsey plan is a super one!! I second those senior expenses, many are not required or necessary, but some are.

    So nice to hear from you, NGG. Smile Your schedule sounds exhausting, but if it helps you reach your goals, it will be worth it in the end.

    DR has a great get-out-of-debt plan. Best of luck to you with your goals.

    Welcome back! I think I should get back to MyFitnessPal again, too! Maybe a reunion of sorts, since it is getting cold and snowing and all I want to do is hibernate.

    Anyhow, sounds like you are busy, but a good busy. Senior year is next year for us, and I am glad that they did the class rings junior year (paid for sophomore year). DR is a good idea!
