Updates for the week

School has started and the whacked out schedule has begun-which would explain my lack of posting…lol.

Everything is going well on the home front and money is going into savings every week. I have been working and having my husband home at night has been nice. We finally just started using the 2001 Toyota yesterday. It has been forever since we have gotten time to work on that car! So far so good though, it is running smooth. (knock on wood) A few little tweaks will be needed here and there with the car but nothing major.I thought it would be worse and I didn’t want to drive too far just in case, but it drove great. I mean the car sat for years-I am surprised how great it is running so far. Gosh, I can’t get over getting that car. It is awesome.

I have been busy trying to get more money into savings that I am up late nights working part-time from home. Yes, I finally got something. Actually it is nothing permanent, more like freelancing. I write content. Yup, I get paid to do what I love! I am a beginner so I do not make much-not much at all, but I will not complain because I still make a little extra money doing it. It is funny though, when you actually enjoy what you are doing, it doesn’t feel like work at all.I would love to do this full time!

Although I love to write, I never thought I had what it takes to make money at it. Lord knows I got the gift of gab—ya see it here on my posts. I found content writing while niche blogging. Sad to say, I suck at promoting niche blogs, but I sure do love writing content. So I turned my love for that into my niche…:) So if anyone needs content-keep me in mind. (hint, hint)

I would love to have 10k in savings by December. That would be wonderful. Mentally, having money in savings is great. For one, I have no credit so if any emergency comes up, I wont be whipping out a Visa or Mastercard. I will need to pay cash. It is nice to know it will be there.

Went to the eye doc yesterday too, my eye is a little better, but not good enough. No contacts for me for at least another month. I see the doc in 1 month and if my eye is not clear-we gotta go the prescription route. But, I am going to take care of my eye and take my flaxseed oil. We’ll see what happens. I found an eye doc I love and he works with me and no health insurance. I wish they all were all like that.
