DoubleN is working on selling the house

In a breathtakingly 3 days ago

surprising turn of events, I may accomplish this in the near future, rather than a decade from now when I’m really too old to enjoy it – Boss Man may be giving me and my friend/co-worker a trip as a 10-year anniversary gift. She e-mailed me this afternoon (she’s our office manager) and gave me a heads-up that I should probably start working on getting a passport.

I am especially speechless and teary-eyed because today was particularly awful and I made a couple of huge, stupid mistakes. I am lucky to be employed at all, much less by someone who takes errors extraordinarily gracefully.



DoubleN is working on selling the house

I took 4 months ago

Mollie’s advice and applied for a credit card that will earn me mileage rewards. After carefully reading through the account provisions, I think it’s just what I need – there is no annual fee (a big deal for me), the miles can apply to different airlines without a lot of restrictions, etc. So instead of using my personal card that accumulates a teensy bit of cash to go to the grandkids’ 529 accounts (which have tanked anyway), I’ll start using this one when it arrives.

I’ve also stashed away tiny bits of cash, but the lack of bonuses and unexpected expenses are not making that easy. This morning I had to hitch a ride with a co-worker, since my garage door opener broke with my car still inside! I hope that won’t be too expensive to fix …



DoubleN is working on selling the house

For a couple of weeks 7 months ago

I’ve been mulling over the advice of my young friend Sue, whose response to my statement that I couldn’t afford to do this was “Sure you can. Just put aside $20 a week and eventually you’ll have what you need”. Though we’re still in debt right now, when we get out I may take her advice. I most likely will not have that much to put away (maybe half that would be doable), but any progress at all would give me some kind of hope.

Passport required. 14 months ago

More detailed than simply “travel the world” – so it’s realistic for me! Hopefully just a matter of time.



Alexandra planning trip back home

Untitled 18 months ago

I have done this! started when I was very young when I went to France with my family. then went to Ireland when I was 12 (by myself) Althought that time I almost got deported because I left my passport at the airport. Thankfully we sorted everything out and my passport was promptly sent to where I was staying.
