Surving the Chores of Everyday Life
Life isn’t all fun and silliness, is it? After my wife and I passed a good week away from reality on our vacation, it was time for us to face the music. From high interest on our credit cards and our car loan to home plans left incomplete, she and I had our work cut out for us. And I’m stubborn old dog, so I was not giving up on my gps project, either.
The first thing we did was address the credit cards. Gratefully, even in this time of difficult credit, credit card companies and auto loan agencies seem anxious to please individuals with good credit. My wife did a great job isolating the optimum deal on a zero percent credit card.
I’m thankful someone in the household has some sure sense of our financial situation… and it sure as heck is not me. But the lower interest rate and smaller monthly bills ought to really furnish us some breathing room.
Then we had to address a number of home betterments we had been designing for quite some time. Some may suppose we have no business investing in improvements at this time, but what can I say? We prefer to stubbornly push onward.
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 bedding tips, we’re no longer on the same page for the new bedding.
Thankfully, she’s being either supportive or tolerant of my little 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 receiver.
I believe GPS tech has evolved enough and become inexpensive enough that we need to integrate it into our life.
I’m only assuaged my girl and I are on the same page for most of this stuff. People’s lives can be so much more problematic when the souls around you use our problems as launching places for their pride instead of opportunities to unite and mature.
