Money Moves Monday – October Week 3
Hello! At this point, I’m just coasting through October as best as I can. I didn’t have too bad of a weekend. More sleep would’ve been super nice but beggars can’t be choosy…even when they took two days off work at the end of the week that consisted of getting things together for their home. Continue reading

Budget Close Out & August Paycheck 1
So we made it to the month of August somehow. I don’t know how this happened. I don’t know when it happened. Half of the year is all the way gone and time keeps moving on. Since we have no choice in the matter, let’s get this budget business out of the way. 😊 So Continue reading

Money Moves Monday – July Week 3
Long post alert! It’s Monday again! While this sounds like excitement, it’s only excitement to an extent. I have a major announcement to make a little later on that will more than likely derail everything. For now, this weekend I have been licking my wounds. For the past several years, I’ve had one thing after Continue reading

Money Moves Monday – July Week 2

Budget Close Out & June Paycheck 2
This seemed to work out pretty well last time so I figured I’d present this information the same as I did last pay period. Of course, I’m late posting again. It’s been slightly crazy because sleep isn’t something that comes easily for me. I go to sleep and am losing close to an hour of Continue reading

Money Moves Monday – June Week 3
Another Monday has came around and it’s time to share the progress made. This weekend I realized, feet take a super long time to heal, especially while wearing Crocs. My toes move a lot better but not as well as they move on my left foot. And my foot feels fine until I start walking Continue reading

Money Moves Monday – June Week 2
It’s Monday and it’s that time again! Before we get started, I always have to share how my week/weekend went. First and foremost, I had been waiting on the final glimmer of hope for my TMJ case to see if there was anything that could be refunded to me. There was not unfortunately, but what Continue reading

About Me
I’m a licensed esthetician and free lance makeup artist that has a full-time career at a local credit union in Raleigh, NC. Personal finance has become my second love next to makeup, as well as an unhealthy addiction to Excel. The plan is to be debt-free by late August 2024. New posts will be available between Monday and Thursday at 6 AM. To watch my debt balances go up or down, check my Money Moves Monday/Month-End posts. 😊
