Busy busy busy... work, army stuff, and school.

February 23rd, 2010 at 03:26 pm

So nothing terribly exciting to discuss today. Didn't really spend anything yesterday. Scraped together a bunch of change to take the bus to class. Then went to see Colin Powell speak at my university, which was a really good time.

Made dinner at home with BF, and it turned out great.

Called about 10 places yesterday that buy junk cars. It's looking like $300 is going to be the most I'll get out of it. I really dont want to deal with the hassle of getting it fixed (whatever that would run me) and selling it. But perhaps I'll give my mechanic buddy a call and ask his opinion on the situation. I've put more than $300 in repairs over the last 4 months...

As for other financial news, there really isn't any. I'm hoping to make it to the bank this afternoon. I have checks I need to deposit. Should be a no-spend day. Very busy day, though. I have all this homework I have to catch up on because I had drill, and consequently no time to do homework, this past weekend.

Talked to my boss about my training dates getting switched, and I've decided to at least attempt to work 5-10 hours a week on top of my training and whatever extra schoolwork I'll have. I figure if I'm there, staying in a hotel, I'm not really going to go out. I'd rather save the money. I'm going to be busy as it is. Weekends I can spend doing massive amounts of school work and that'll leave me some time during the week to work as well. I work online, remotely, so I can do it from my hotel on the other side of the country as well. lol. Financially, this training is going to be great for me.

So that's it. Time for me to get back to work. Hope everyone is having a great day.

    Sounds like you had plenty to report! I have been cooking myself (DH usually does it) almost every day this month. Tried a new Rachel Ray curry recipe last night and it turned out good.

    I added cubed turkey and just roasted fresh veges (onion, carrot, bell pepper, butternut squash) except the broccoli that I dumped in the pan with the other ingredients, then dumped in the roasted veges and it was quite tasty if I say so myself.

    I hope that your boss will work with you on the military stuff. That would always lead to stress for me with one of my employers, but others were really cool about it. Still, it was worth it to me for the Tricare insurance and some of the other school benefits.
