Back on track?

I did something tonite that I haven’t done since the end of September of last year. I transferred money into my 2 savings accounts ($200 into each). It felt soooo good. Right now I’m getting paid just slightly more than I did at my last job. So I should be able to go back on my savings plan. I might cut back just a little though. I was aggressively saving for closing costs so I  […]

Is it possible?

I started something today that I really shouldn’t have. You see, I’m so sick of apartment living. I’ve been wanting to get into a house for quite some time now. Especially after my friend Robin bought a house a couple years ago (I think it’s been that long now). I thought it would take me forever to be able to get a house.

Even though I didn’t think it would be possible for quite some  […]
