Weekly Money Check Up

1. The most I’ve spent this last week was on Black Friday shopping at Kohl's. (but I'm going to return $30-ish of it today and I got $20 in Kohl's cash!)
2. Today I feel only slightly worried towards money.
3. Money can’t buy happiness. One free/inexpensive thing I did last week that made me happy was um... we went to my brother-in-law's birthday party.
4. I will consider this week a success if I can manage to actually cook instead of eating out.
5. My favorite holiday song is Mary Did You Know.

Weekly Money Check Up

2. Today I feel hopeful towards money. Our budget is working pretty well. We're still eating out too much, but it's a lot less than it was.
3. Money can't buy happiness. One free/inexpensive thing I did last week that made me happy was play around on Polyvore.
4. I will consider this week a success if I can make smart Black Friday decisions.
5. My favorite food at Thanksgiving is cranberry sauce, the jell-o-ish kind.

Ke$ha, Get Out of My Brain

I have had this song stuck in my head all day. I don't particularly like this song nor do I know all of the lyrics. Needless to say, I am highly annoyed at Ke$ha right now. Also, I'm getting annoyed at spelling her name with that dang dollar sign.

Blogger, will you take me back?

Blogger, I need to apologize. I need to apologize PROFUSELY. I thought Wordpress was better and I tried to make it work, but Wordpress treated me horribly. It was hard to navigate and would never let me make it look pretty.
I came back to you and you let me make you look pretty in under five minutes. I'm back Blogger and I (will probably) never leave again!

Also, let me apologize to those of you who have left me comments in the past. I'm so used to LiveJournal just emailing me when I get comments! I never knew I had any!!!
