I’m a tight wad you might say

September 16, 2009 // Posted in grown-up stuff, home improvement, outdoors, sports  |  No Comments

Now that I don’t make as much money as I did when I worked full time, I have learned how to be really tight with my money.  One thing that really helps is shopping online.  One of my favorite places to shop online is Cymax. I was surprised to  find  Cymax discount coupons online and saved even more money. Have you ever checked them out?

Believe it or not but I also found Sun & Ski Sports discounts coupons too.  Saved me a bundle so I can afford to pay for my gas to go skiing this winter.  Cool huh?  If you look, you might find discount coupons for what you want too.

Registering for classes

August 23, 2009 // Posted in education and training, family and friends, grown-up stuff  |  No Comments

It’s that time when everyone is registering for classes.  I have some that are online and some that are on campus.  I’m really looking forward to getting back into school.  Believe it or not but I have missed going to school.  This is better though since I’m not in a classroom every day.  I have come to the conclusion that I need a part-time job though and that way I won’t have to keep going to my father for money even though he did say he would pay for everything.

I’m pretty tight with my money especially since I buy most of what I want or need online.  You can really save a bundle if you just know where to look.  I’m the search king for savings!!

Back home

I will give it to my father.  He couldn’t have planned a better vacation even if Mom and I would have helped him.  I would love to go back in the fall or early winter.  It was so very beautiful but Alaska would be awesome in the winter so you can see the winter light displays in the sky.  You know, the Northern Lights.

Isn’t this absolutely beautiful?  The wonders of nature at their best.

It’s July already?

Man I swear time flies no matter is you’re having fun or not.  It’s already July and I just can’t seem to get over that.  I feel like a kid that’s been out of school for awhile and really not looking forward to going back.  Remember how that was?  Man did the summers go by fast when it was like that.  Well, I have to start thinking about what classes I’ll be taking this fall now too.
