Yesterday I did something interesting. I decided to reconnect with some people from the past. Nothing crazy or scary. Just some old friends from cast. I was very selective about who I reached out to and my main goal was if they haven't grown or changed then I am going to nope them right out. If I could see or tell that they are in the same place they were 10 years ago, then that's not what I need. I managed to talk to a few and overall the response was positive. In fact, I discovered that one of them still reads this blog!! WOO! So a big shout out to you my friend. I am glad you're still here, getting healthy, and living your best life!
We did take a midday break yesterday. C was off and our friend who now drives for FedEx sent us a video midday letting us know of a Dick's Sporting Goods closing down nearby. They are liquidating and we decided to check it out. Got some good stuff! Got sweatpants and workout clothes for pennies. C found a pair of shoes for her mom regularly $125 for $28. I got sweatpants regularly $49 for $8. Added some more gifts under the tree for a fraction of the cost. Nice.
Made salmon for dinner, watched some tv, and then I helped C adult. She wants to get back using the spreadsheet I made for her and make a plan to pay off her debt. We worked on that for a while. Speaking of that, the other day I had to give the dealership $500 down to leave with the new car. I wrote them a check. I didn't have to take anything out savings! It's going to make things tight between now and next Friday but it's a good feeling knowing I was able to do that and not be screwed. I have the savings if we need it, and that's what matters.
Teach today, tomorrow, and next week. Then it's finally Xmas. 258 hours as of 6am EST today. Come faster!
