Accounts, Money, and Credit Cards…

I really need to learn how to save money properly. It seems that I keep spending more than I’m saving which isn’t a good thing especially in the long run and how I want to purchase a Mazda Tribute.

I have two different checking accounts. One is used for direct deposits for work, the other is used for transfers from PayPal. It’s nice seeing both of them have figures in them. The problem is, it never lasts long.

I’m really thinking about cutting up my credit card. I always purchase things on it both online and in my local mall. I think that’s where most of my spending is going. The problem with getting rid of my credit card is the fact that I actually REALLY like it. I like being able to purchase something and not having to worry about paying it until a month later. It really comes in handy when I have no cash on hand.

What on earth am I to do?? ….

Comparing Apartments

As I mentioned probably million times on almost all my blogs, I plan on moving out this year. Now that I have a great job that is paying great, I hope to do so probably in the summer.

I have already been looking for places via some online websites that allow you to look at different apartments in your city. I found two that I like. They are very near to my favourite shopping mall, liquor store, and groceries. All in walking distances!!

Both of these apartments are all inclusive and cost the same. However, when I was looking at the images of both and comparing what the apartments look like inside, they differed with the plumbing fixtures in each apartment.

One of the apartments had a bathroom that looked awful. The colour was nasty and the fixtures looked so rusted. Heck no am I going to move in there. The other one looked nice and shiny. Yes, I like nice and shiny. LOL!

So hopefully they have openings in the summer. I don’t want to go on high floors though. I have a max of going up to the third floor and that’s it. After that, I’m scared shitless to look outside. It’s way too high up.

Scorpio Horoscope Today!

I got an interesting horoscope today in my inbox from Astrocenter.com which I subscribe for. This is what it said for Scorpio which is my zodiac sign.

Your business may require a lot of phone calls and paperwork today, Tina. A business partner or a friend may be instrumental in helping to clear up some loose ends that have been left hanging. Be sure you get any work that’s left over from previous weeks out of the way, as you’ll probably soon become even more busy. When you get bored, remember that success lies ahead. Good luck!

Interesting enough since I am starting a new job today and it deals with being on the phones a lot. The business partner? I’m thinking that would be my good friend who also works there and has been helping me by answering questions I had about the job. I’ll be more busy? Well, I’m sure that is true because I usually just blog all day long and didn’t have a “real” job then. Success?…great…I LOVE SUCCESS!!

See? Some horoscopes are really dead on especially when you apply it to your own life.

Do you have a moisture problem in your home?

I don’t know if you use this in your home, but dehumidifiers are bloody awesome!!

My dad purchased one a few years ago and it does wonders in our house to reduce moisture, especially in our basement. I can remember when we have horrible conditions in the basement with the dehumidifier and I swear, mold was ready to grow. It was that disgusting.

That is why I honestly can’t live with the dehumidifier. Yes ok, when it’s on it’s loud and gets annoying. But in the long wrong, it really does wonders that you will notice.

Do you have one?

Moving soon?

I’m sure in the coming year many people will be moving on with their lives and finding new locations to live. I know that’s something I’m planning too.

If you live in the New York area, you may want to contact this mover NYC for some help. They will make your move without any hassle! I know how horrible moving experiences can be. Heck, even carrying some of those things can take forever to do. So it’s always good to get help.

I can’t wait until I move out from my parents house. I know they’ll end up helping which will be awesome instead of hiring others to do it for me.

Plus size lingerie

Being a bigger than average female, I find it hard to find certain clothing that I think is stylish. Yes, I am very picky when it comes to what I wear. I like it to fit comfortable and fit my sense of style. Sometimes, I can’t always find what I’m looking for.

The same thing goes for plus size lingerie. I think this area is lacking very much. Of course any women would love to wear some sexy lingerie for the man in their world, but the limited number of styles makes it…well…difficult.

Maybe it’s just the stores I have in my city. I don’t know. But it does lack very much here.

Stupid Exam Today

Noooooooo…….I have a bloody exam in a few hours and I really don’t want to go. Seriously…what is the friggin point? Not only that but I don’t even know what’s it on since I haven’t gone to class for the past month.

Geeze….on top of that all I’m so tired and just want to lay in my bed and fall asleep. Just hearing my dog snoring beside me is making me drift away to lala land. Shit….I just want to go to bed like RIGHT NOW!!

Unfortunately I can’t because…

1. I have to shower & get ready
2. I have to monitor my ebay wins that are finishing soon
3. I have to leave soon to go to school for that stupid exam

Ughhh…I’m already looking forward to going home even though I haven’t left yet.

Do you believe in psychics?

I personally don’t…well, not the ones you see on tv. There are some that are just so phony and are there for more of an entertainment reason. Just look at Kay Rhea or Sylvia Browne. Pure entertainment to me anyways.

Sylvia Browne appears on the Montel Williams show every Wednesday. Just watch it. Many people ask, “What’s my spirit guide’s name?” I swear she pulls those names from the top of her head. Plus, a lot of times she’ll take something that contradicts with what actually happened. Or when she describes someone’s spirit to an audience member, she usually says something like, “Sharp features, oval face, etc.” Come on now…that pretty much explains every single human being on this planet.

Don’t get me wrong though. I buy and read all books written by her. They are very entertaining to me and lets my mind get creative with what she says. You just need to know how to separate the fact from the fiction. Oh ya…just a heads up, her books cross paths all the time and she reviews a lot from other books she has written.

Anyways, check out this video below. It’s entitled, “Do psychics help the police?” It’s from the show 20/20 with John Stossel. It’s really short too so just watch it and you’ll see how phony psychics can be.

My own place someday

In a few years, when I have saved up enough money and have a steady full time job, I’m planning on moving out and getting my own place.

How do I want to decorate my place? I want it Japanese themed. I already have an entire kitchen set of bowls, trays, cups, etc that I got awhile ago. I know exact want lantern lamps I want, plants, decor, and colour schemes. The only thing I still have to look at are platform beds. They are the kind that’s low to the ground and actually look really stylish.

Then I’ll definitely have some pets too so they can easily jump up onto the bed unlike the bed I currently have which is really high from the ground. I’m still debating what kind of pets I want to get in the future. I was thinking two white Persian cats, or a Yorkshire Terrier, or even two black Dobermans for protection. I don’t know…it all depends on my income and what I can afford to keep.

Xmas shopping

Christmas is coming up faster than imagined. It’s already the end of November and I’m sure the weeks in December are just going to fly on by too.

So get yourself in check and start going Christmas shopping. With all the items you can choose from in the store, what is the one that’s on your top list? Mine…well…I’m not even quite sure. The majority of things I want for Christmas are movies or games. I also want a hand vacuum to suck up damn spiders. LOL!

Thinking about all the toys, clothing, electronics, Ingersoll Rand air tools, movies, games, chocolate, and other things people may get for Christmas, gives me a headache. I can’t imagine working at a huge department store during this time of the year. It must be REALLY busy!!
