Surving the Chores of Everyday Life
Life isn’t all fun in the sun, is it? After my girl and I passed a good week away from reality 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 house plans left incomplete, we had our work lined up for us. And I’m determined old dog, so I was not giving up on my gps plan, either.
First we tackled the credit cards. Thankfully, even in this time of difficult credit, credit card companies and auto loan agencies seem eager to please people with good credit. My wife did a good job isolating the best deal on the best zero percent balance transfer credit cards.
I’m grateful someone in the household has some sure sense of our financial situation… and it sure as heck isn’t me. But the lower interest rate and smaller monthly bills should really furnish us a little extra breathing room.
Then we had to discuss a number of house betterments we had been designing for quite some time. Some might say we have no business investing in improvements at this time, but what can I say? We prefer to obstinately push onward.
My wife has been looking over the different available steam showers and wee both agree on the bathroom lights and bathroom sinks we want for our bathroom remodel, but after looking over some discount bedding tips, we’re no longer on the same page for the new bedding.
Gratefully, 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 bluetooth GPS.
I think GPS tech has evolved enough and become inexpensive enough that we need to integrate it into our life.
I’m only allayed my wife and I are on the same page for a majority of this stuff. Life can be so much more problematic when the people around you use our troubles as launching points for their pride rather than opportunities to unify and mature.
