I'm still here

June 3rd, 2006 at 05:08 am

I haven't abandoned this, I just have had a lot going on. I won't go into it but let's just say I haven't had the best of luck and I've been in a major state of anxiety this week. I am glad May is over because, looking back, the entire month was just one big thing after another.

In good news, my birth control pills have gone back down in price by about $8. So roughly $96 saved over a year. I'm hoping they'll stay at that price but you never know. I've yet to find them anywhere cheaper unfortunately.

A few more charges have had to be put on my credit card thanks to the car mishaps and such setting us back but thankfully they will all be paid back very quickly.

I cashed in my coin jar to give us a bit of extra money for things like the boy's dinners at work and such. I had $10 in change without even trying.

Either tomorrow or Monday, depending on when checks clear, I'll be closing my account and opening a new one to make certain the scammy debt collector can't take any more of my money. I'll probably open up a Keep The Change savings account through B of A so that I can have my change automatically put into the bank and also get extra earnings from them matching it for the first 3 months.

I'll probably be restarting my $20 challenge from scratch due to all the money going in and out lately and us spending more than saving.

Writing for Money

May 18th, 2006 at 01:31 am

I'm burned out on writing for the day.

I wrote a letter regarding a debt.

I wrote a KnowHow article for ClubMom.

I wrote a review for ReviewStream.

I wrote a couple more answers for Helium Knowledge as well as a question about the best free software you can find where I listed some of my favorites.

I wrote a couple of entries at WritingUp whose blog service I'm trying out.

I wrote an entry late last night before bed at my personal blog and then a short one this morning.

I need to get away from the computer and stop thinking about writing and money for a bit. Definitely so.
