Bills are EVIL
I'm just sitting on the computer, well actually sitting at my desk that happens to hold the computer as well. Anyway, i'm adding up all the bills. We went on holiday at the beginning of the month so as is our usual practice, we ignored last months bills to ensure we'd have enough money for our much needed vacation. So most of the bills are a month behind which makes the numbers not so pretty to look at.
I'm in charge of the bill paying... that's why i get kinda stressed out when this happens. Since we bought the new (samller) house it's happening less because there is more money to go around. I can't wait for the day when I can pay all the bills without worrying about prioritizing the bills so I can pay half now and half later.
Oh well, I'm not the first person in the world that has had to fret about money and I am absolutely sure I won't be the last.
...As soon as i get my paintings hung in a public place I'll be making so much money that I will be able to light the fire place with 100$ bills **She dreams**
Speaking of art, I am working on my portraits for the day RIGHT NOW! I'll have them up in a couple hours when my daughter goes down for her nap. right now she's 'calowing' with her momma.
Check out the flury of activity in that drawing hand!
Someone, I know exactly who... Left a beautiful ROSE on my front doorstep this morning. Thanks Laurie and Dave, it's absolutely gorgeous and greatly appreciated by me and the family.
So let me know if you have problems with money- and if you don't, Give me some tips on how to balance it so I don't feel like an idiot- err, well... at least less of an idiot.
Thanks guys, I knew I could count on you to make me feel better!
Hugs,
