merry x-mas all

December 22nd, 2006 at 08:10 pm

hey,

getting another 4 day weekend here, i found out today that i am getting payed double time on x-mas for not even going in....such blessings i have received! also, the union dues are always paid out of the last week of the month, so the company is paying the dues for us as well.
gotta love it.

i hope everyone has a great x-mas!

more overtime

December 17th, 2006 at 11:11 am

hey all,

last week, i did 20 hours of overtime, and this week i did 9. it was all i could do, and i wanted more.
i know i need to make sure i have time for me and rest, but i want to get going and get out of the hole, you know?

i also got my credit report. i am going to start paying on a couple of no pays i have. i am really stoked, i thought that i had a lot more stuff on there!! i still owe a decent amount(under$1000), but i will get it taken care of in due time.
hope everyone has a good holiday if i don't talk to ya until later!!

20 hrs overtime

December 9th, 2006 at 12:56 pm

hey all,

just got done with doing 20 hours overtime for the week.
we have a $700 credit card bill due to her car breaking down, then my car 2 weeks later...paying $200/month on it is just aggravating as heck, so i am putting in as much overtime as possibly allowed by work to make sure i get it payed off in hopefully a month.
then i will be back at square one, saving all over again.
hope all is well with everyone.

power out..then

December 2nd, 2006 at 10:08 am

hey all

hope everything is good for everyone. staying warm and safe and everything.
yesterday, our power went out, we packed up everything and went to in-laws to stay for however long. estimates where for 4-5 days. last summer it was 4-5 days too.
just when i was getting to sleep , my wife comes in and tells me that our neighbor called and our power came on!!
so we are back home and everything is good.
i just hope all the ice on the lines will not bring one down(knock on wood) and we are out again.
savings is still coming along just fine, and i am paying off the collection today, so hopefully everything will be takin care of then.
