How I did it: I set my alarm on my phone while watching tv at night so I knew when I needed to go to bed. I got all my things ready for the next day during commercials so I wouldn't be rushed in the morning. Set my alarm for an hour earlierthan I normally get up and made myself a good healthy breakfast. :) Read how I did it…
How I did it: The first few nights I tried to do this were very hard as we had many issues with our product to deal with. The best way I have found for me to stay calm is to remember that all the things that go on at work I can leave at the door. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I started slow and figured out exactly how I wanted my room to look. I started by getting all of my laundry done and actually putting it all away.Then I did a little bit each day keeping a trash bag in my room I would throw things away as I found them and found places for all of the random things I couldn't be without.

So it flooded near my apartment this year so I ended up moving in with my sister in another part of town. At first it was great, the apartment wasn’t quite as big, but it was newer. But I’ve decided not to renew our lease because they aren’t very good at maintance and the neighbors are just getting to be awful. They are either really loud, or their cooking smells the whole place up. So I am not done yet with my search.
I’ve slowly been chipping away at my debt. I’ve stopped spending as much money on things that I don’t need or that can wait for a while before I get them. It was really hard at first to stop buying things but after a few months of this its really easy now.
