Our lives aren’t all fun in the sun, is it? After my girl and I spent a good week away from reality on vacation, it was time for us to confront our real lives again. From high interest rates on our credit cards and our auto loan to home projects left pending, she and I had our work lined up for us. And you know, I’m determined old dog, so I was not quitting on my gps project, either.
The first thing we did was address the credit cards. Thankfully, 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 by finding great auto credit tips and low interest credit cards.
I’m grateful someone in the house has some sure sense of our finances… and it sure as heck is not me. But the lower interest and lower monthly bills should genuinely provide us a little extra breathing room.
Next we had to address a number of home betterments we had been planning for quite some time. Some may say we have no business investing in betterments at this time, but what can I say? We prefer to obstinately press forward.
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 bedsheets, 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-8. Speaking of GPS, we both agree it is time to invest in a bluetooth GPS receiver.
I believe GPS technology has refined enough and grown cheap enough that we need to incorporate it into our life.
I’m just 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 individuals around them use your problems as launching points for their pride rather than chances to unite and grow.
