Monday, March 21, 2011


Not too bad for a Monday..especially with such a nutritionally horrible weekend.  Around lunch time I strolled around campus with a coworker interviewing students about spring break.  It made me insanely jealous because I NEVER went anywhere for Spring Break.  I was always too broke and would take the opportunity to work the full week.  I should have taken that as a sign of what was coming in my future.  My poor money management skills in my 20s are killing me in my 30s.  Student loans and bad car deals are my biggest pain in the tail.  I DID manage to get rid of every credit card bill I had a few months ago.  I currently am taking the stance that I do not believe in credit cards and if I can't buy it with cash or my debit card then I obviously can't afford it/don't need it.  That being said I also find myself becoming increasingly pickier about my purchases.  I don't mind paying for clothes or shoes that I know I can wear for more than a year.  FYI you can't wear maternity clothes very long and I consider them to be a HUGE RIP-OFF but that's a rant for another day.  Also for another day..budgeting is way harder than it looks and sometimes it really sucks to be a grown-up.
