I love tracking stuff

One of the things I love about my job is tracking orders.  Every morning the second thing I do is log onto ups.com and look at what is coming in for the day.  I enjoy this for two reasons.  One is so that when people ask me where their stuff is I can say things like "It arrived in Minnesota at 6:04 AM"  And the second reason is getting a kick out of the path that some things take to get to us.  Usually the path is normal like Texas to Illinois to Indiana.  But every once in a while I will get a golden nugget path like Illionis to California to Indiana.....and then I have a good laugh to myself and go about my day. 

Budgeting and what not....

Budgeting is fun if you pretend your debts are enemies and must be taken down....I have reached the point of not wanting to pay interest on my stuff anymore and therefore the husband and I have started Dave Ramsey's Total Money Makeover.

I've been tried to do this makeover by myself on and off for the last three years.  But I lack discipline and motivation and consistency....

We are currently on step 1 of funding our emergency fund and should reach that goal by Sept 2.  I know what you're thinking, great another blog about trying to get out of debt...bla bla bla....I came here to laugh not read about your road to becoming debt free!  And while you may be saying that to yourself, I am here to tell you that I will still be funny.  I just wanted to let you know what was going on in case in the future I get super excited about coupons or something.

On another note, I am happy to report that paper towels have finally arrived at work. 


You're welcome.
