make more money

Just went around and unplugged every single appliance that is not currently in use: toaster oven, coffee pot, microwave, air conditioner window units, lamps, baby monitors, living room tv not in use right now in the hopes on saving on the monthly power bill.

Come November we are switching to a prepay cell phone to be used for emergency only and downgrading our HD 250plus cable plan to 1 box of basic cable and either splitting the cable for the other tvs or rabbit ears.

I am so excited and hope we can actually save up money or pay bills off. But it might be that we were just living above our means anyway and couldn’t afford this stuff.

NEXT GOAL: getting the grocery bill & impulse extra food buying to a minimum

Signed up for online developmental psychology for the spring semester. This will be class 2 of 5 for nursing school prerequisite.

I have been trying really hard to take on extra hours at work. I have a goal to make some big paychecks for the end of the year while my husband doesn’t have overtime available at his job. So far so good, I think my goal for this pay period is 55 hours. (I’m a stay at home mom and work PRN so that is really good!!)

I’m taking prerequisites for nursing school. I just completed psychology, class 1 of 5 online. I am now enrolled & starting ethics class 2 of 5. Go ME!
