We made our first significant budget cut this year and in the process we are saving $840. Last year I started to simplify and de-clutter my life. As part of this process, we rented a local storage building to store our junk. When I look back at 2011 it’s amazing and stupid at the [...] 
I did something tonight that I have never done before. I ordered Pizza Hut Wings online. Call me crazy & daring or just call me full. Yep, my belly is tight as a tick right now. My Queen got home from work tonight and said she was tired and didn’t want to cook. I [...] Everyone knows how Google is the all knowing God of the internet right? Everyone knows that Google serves up relevant ads on web pages you visit right? Google knows the future right? Google knows your search history and preferences right? Now I’m a little worried.

I’m so sick of “stuff” coming into my house. I just want “stuff” to leave my house. Think about it, do you really need a book bought [...] Delta Airlines has really pissed me off today. It seems that they decided to charge our soldiers returning from Afghanistan extra money for their baggage. Delta Airlines has told these soldiers that 3 bags are ok but they will be charged for the fourth bag. This is a disgusting act by an American Company, [...] I set myself free yesterday. What other people told me was successful, I considered a burden. What other people seemed to enjoy the benefits of, I only felt shackles. It started as an experiment. It grew and grew and grew. It gave me a wonderful education. People from all walks [...] Sometimes it’s not personal stress that bothers us, it’s also the stress experienced by our spouses, friends and children. Back in the day of my corporate job, I suffered from a lot of stress and looked for ways to relieve it. I mostly suffered from idiots placed in the chain of command above me. [...] |
