Hi and Hello

I feel as if I haven't seen (talked?....what do you say when you communicate via a blog?) you all for awhile. Tuesday night I had a scratchy throat and Wednesday woke up feeling like CRAP!!! I spent the next two days in bed and then only worked half a day on Friday. It was a combination of migraines, sinus, cough, sore throat...etc, etc, etc! Whatever it was, it hit me like a ton of bricks. I'm getting better, although I have a nasty cough still hanging on...UGH!!!

Some of you who know me better know that I have been working on getting out of debt. More specifically...getting out of credit card debt. At the heyday of my credit card madness I had at least 7 credit cards...all maxed out!!! UGH!!! Well, I paid another one off this week (YEAH!!!) and only have 2 left! I also have only 3 months left on the loan I took out to pay for new furniture when I moved this last February...the furniture was one of those pay no interest as long as you pay within a year...I've kept it within the year period. Come January, when I have to student teach, I will have less money that needs to go out which will make a lot easier! I know that it is going to be hard when I have to start paying student loans back, but I should a better handle on finances at that point! Hallelujah!

Maddy and I went and saw High School Musical 3 last night! **SIGH** Why is Zac Efron only 21? He should be at least 34! LOL.....it was definitely along the same lines of the other two movies. It had that corny, Disney feel, but we loved it anyway! The only part I think was why over cheesy was the last song of the movie where they actually sing about High School Musical! I'd have to say this probably should be the end of the road for this teeny-bopper movie series!

I heard from someone that Zach Efron is going to be staring in the next Pirates movie...There goes the series...ugh.
sorry but Zach doesn't do it for me. Cute, but just silly...

Good for you for getting out of debt! I only have one credit card with a balance, but it's essentially maxed out (though it has a fairly low max). Not good for a credit counselor! I'm working on getting it paid down, but extra expenses keep coming my way (cavities, blech). I have heard that I should be getting a substantial raise at work in the next couple of months, yay!

Thanks for stopping by my blog from SITS! I'm glad you stopped by.

Girl...I hear you about credit card debt. EEK! I too am working on that and am almost there with one card leaving one to go. Oh if I only knew then what I know now.

Enjoy your day!
