I’ve stopped drinking sodas (for the most part) for a few weeks now. It’s going fairly well— The first day was absolute torture, but each day after that things got better and better. I’ve even lost some weight as a result!

Though, I do have to say that I do still occasionally drink soda. Particularly when I have pizza. But I also have to report that drinking more than one in a day makes my stomach feel bad. (It’s a sign, I think.)

As of last Friday, June 6, 2008, my goal of collecting $1,000.00 in cash for my trip to Florida has been met. I’m pretty proud of myself for getting it done in time without having to take anything out of checking to make up the difference.

Now, I can only hope that a thousand dollars is enough to cover food and gas for the approximately 700 mile trip. Wish me luck.

That’s what I want before I head on out to my next trip to Florida. Mostly just so I have cash for anything I need. Gas, hotel rooms, food, the works. Calculated, that’s a stack of fifty Jacksons—Not exactly a “big” stack, but larger than I’ve ever really had before.

Although with gas prices being as high as they are, $1,000 might not be enough!

Total in the till so far: $200.00
