My Life, My Credit
Life isn’t all fun and silliness, is it? After my girl and I spent a good week away from the real world on vacation, it was time for us to confront our real lives again. From high interest on our credit cards and our car loan to household plans left pending, we had our work cut out for us. And you know, I’m tenacious old dog, so I wasn’t giving up on my GPS plan, either.
The first thing we did was address the credit cards. Thankfully, even in this time of tough credit, credit card companies and auto loan bureaus seem eager to please individuals with good credit. My wife did a great job isolating the best deal by finding great auto credit tips and low interest credit cards.
I’m thankful someone in the house has some responsible sense of our finances… and it sure as heck isn’t me. But the lower interest rate and lower monthly bills ought to really provide us some breathing room.
Next we had to address a number of home betterments we had been designing for quite some time. Some might say we have no business investing in betterments at this time, but what can I say? We prefer to pig-headedly press forward.
My wife has been looking over the different available steam showers and we both agree on the bathroom lights and bathroom sinks we want for our bathroom remodel, but after looking over some discount bedsheets, we’re no longer on the same page for the new bedding.
Thankfully, she’s being either encouraging or patient of my small gadget obsession. I’m not too bad about it, but I have my weakness. Presently I have narrowed it down to a handheld tv, DVD projector or a Garmin Golflogix GPS. Speaking of GPS, we both agree it is time to invest in a gps tracking collar for our dog’s safety.
I think GPS tech has refined enough and grown cheap enough that we need to incorporate it into our life.
I’m just assuaged my wife and I are on the same page for most of this stuff. Life can be so much more difficult when the souls around them use our problems as launching points for their pride rather than opportunities to unite and grow.
