numero dos

ok blog two. I started out the day planning on making specific goals for this month, things that could change in order to get back on my feet so to speak. But to be honest I do believe I am having my first migraine, and it is not my friend. Ever since my dear darling husband woke me up with an early phone call on my day off, my head has been throbbing. anyways, enough complaining. I really appreciate my frugal-loving friends' comments and thoughts on goals for this new month. I hope to have a similar outlook soon. but really, I feel like I am too poor to cut anything out, most of it goes to current debt and getting DH to be in the same country. (That would be the ultimate Christmas gift.) I do agree that living on cash would make random spending more tangible and less likely. Goals that I currently have are to finish paperwork and send it in before the months end (September), aircare and reinsure the car in my name (Thanks mom.), look into a cheaper cell plan that actually works for me, Go see Dolly! my eyebrows need threading like you wouldn't believe. I would love to be able to start saving and get a managable plan to be debt-free, but that I feel will come with time, and with DH being here, working, that would help too. I'm I'll be adding to the list as I go. ok friends, its not yet dark out but sleep is calling me. until next time.

the welcoming speech

Day one of blogging, should be interesting. At the moment I don't have a lot to say, and really I hardly know you, can I say everything on my mind and not have you run away screaming? what kind of hostess would that make me?
To start I've decided to blog to see if I can't get this whole being grown up thing to be comprehensible. while I don't expect most of my post to make sense, I think it'll be good for me to be able to prioritize and organize and get things all straightened out in my life. not that I lead a crooked life... its just fairly on the complicated side right now. if you come again I'm sure you will see what I mean.
