Our finances have sucked BIG TIME for a while now... had three smallish debts that were costing HEAPS in interest... so we decided to consolidate them all into one and pay just ONE debt with one lot of interest.
So we did.
And as a consequence our circumstances are going to be much better.
It's amazing how financial 'tightness' can slowly drag you down...
So... now that we have sorted out the finances things should pick up... AND we can get the Spa Pool that we have wanted forever! (the cost was rolled into the re-financing)... As I suffer from painful knees and backache the pool will be wonderful... and in summer we can run it much cooler and the kids can play in it. Score!
Today Steve and I are heading into Greenlane to have lunch with Stew... and I might even pop into Patchwork Passion in Onehunga to drool over some fabric! NOT buying any though... I have my Dresden Plate quilt to finish before I buy any more fabric!
OH! I'm getting super excited about TOMORROW TOO! Coco's BLIND DATE is coming over tomorrow! Let's keep our fingers crossed she likes him and they get 'happy' together!
ONWARD...
LYNDA: point taken, but as we want a spa pool NOW and not in the years it would take to save up for it...we are getting it! And the interest rate on our new financials is VERY LOW... much, much lower than anywhere else.
YIKES! Maybe I need to change my passwords as Steve knows them! Looks like he got a bit hot under the collar today? *smiles*... he loves his Mum.
LYNDA: it will cost $30 a MONTH extra in power.
Just got home from having lunch with Stew... we had... MC DONALDS! It was semi OK... not something I would want to eat on a regular basis though.
And I did not got to Patchework Passion afterall.. I am not good at 'window shopping' and would have bought something for sure!
Sad.. but true.
ANONYMOUS: I did not ask for anyone's support when I wrote my post this morning... I was simply stating why I was in a better frame of mind. If someone felt the need to impart their opinion on my financial decisions...so be it. I cannot be 'blamed' for other people deciding to have their say.... be it 'IN SUPPORT' of me or NOT. As you say, this is a PUBLIC BLOG... and ummmmm....at NO POINT did I ask anyone to NOT READ my blog! Thanks for your input.
End of Day: I'm sorry today's post has upset some people... it was NOT meant to! I have put a comment on this post too... and with that I shall say:
nite nite.
