Well the mo money Senior year has officially begun. Yet it is only summer. Today we reviewed his senior pics and ended up purchasing $360 worth of pics. What blows my mind is that I picked a package second from the cheapest. And they had the nerve to have a package that went all the way up to $1000. WTF
Thank God I had already put money away for the mo money year. So I have that to fall back on if needed. More people need to learn how to save money for that rainy day or whatever you want to call it day. I make a point to have a emergency fund for days like that. When I am working I put in a minimum of $25 up to $100 in it a month. And when I am not working………………. I just don’t touch it! I hate when it is gone. Believe me it has happened more than once. But I always get it started right back up!
On a better note. I weigh myself weekly now and take my measurements monthly. And it looks like I have been losing about a half a pound to a pound a week. And in the past month I have actually lost 5 inches around my waist. When my new swimsuit came in the mail the other day I was nicely surprised that I had more room than expected. I decided not to return it since I am blessed on the top. And it is rare for a swimsuit to fit me so well on all parts! So now I am ready to hit the beach! Or shall I say the lake! LOL
In about 2 weeks I may be hitting the road. Heading back to dear ole Washington, DC/Maryland for some R&R! LOL I would love to stop in NC to see friends and family, make a trek to Philly, PA and Ocean City while I am out that way. We are heading to FL for approximately 7-10 days starting July 17. And if I find time….. spend some time in St Louis, MO before the summer is over.
I found out I only have about 30 hours left to get my masters,…… give or take. I am attending a new school. And my new advisor has suggested that I take some classes “not” on my degree plan that he still feels will help me in the end. The degree plan he gave me only lists 8 classes. So that is 24 hours. I am planning on adding about 12 more hours to that. Give or take. Wish me luck and send me some strength! LOL
