Now my sister told me on Friday that she got the bill rom Verizon for my broadband, now she says she did not say that. The account is in her name because it was cheaper for me and now I am thinking I made a huge mistake. one should never conduct business with family

I have a friend who I think needs psychological help; there is something seriously wrong with her. Well today was the icing on the cake, she verbally abuses her son. Don't get me wrong I think she love him but she either can not express her love in a positive way or she really has not been conditioned to know what love really is. Anyway she was yelling at him about saving money and that she though he should learn to save money. Then she goes on to tell him that there will be times when he will want to do some things and can't because he did not save his money. But here is the kicker she tells him "there are plenty of times I wish I could do something thins but I can't because I had you" can you believe that. I did tell her that, that was not nice and she owed him an apology but her response was " he knows what I mean" I thought at 8, yeah right you meant every word you said it I am sure it was not the first time nor will it be the last

Well I miss you guys but my nephew was here over the weekend and I miss him already, he's headed back to GA. I spoil him everytime he is here (he's 3)We had so much fun, we played games on the computer, watch Nemo and guess what spent no money. Now that he is back in GA it is time for to start back blogging

I hate lending anyone money but I remember the times where I barely had anything so I went ahead and let my sister borrow a $100.00. I know I may have mad a mistake but I can stand the pinch. She will pay me back but when she says Friday she means not this Friday but 5 Friday's from now (lol). However, I did tell her to keep $60.00 for the broadband service that I have on her account ( it was cheaper this way for me) so she really owed me $40.00

My brother lent me $3000.00 to get a car, well as you know I did not get the car. Well I was thinking about giving him back $2000.00 and using the other $1000.00 to pay off the high CC (33%) and pay him the $300.00 a month that we agreed on. Let me know what you guys think

My sister has driven me crazy since I simply mentioned that I was interested in another car. She wants me to give my nephew my old car and has called and bugged the _________ out of me. Every minute she wants to know did yu call the lady? Well even though I did say if I get the car I was planning on giving it to him, but what she has not realize I need something. I just put new tires, and a tune up on that car I was thinking atleast $300.00 then that way I can get the registration and tag on the oter car. But here is the kicker I have not even looked at the other she just assumes I am going to get it and that is what got me so upset not only that my nephew who will be 19 the end of this month has not even got his DL as of yet and she calling and bugging me. He hasn't even called and said one word like if you decied to but the car I will consider it or eeven give you some thing. Not only that I wouldn't mind keeping the car a little longer and put the miles on it, if I decided to purchase the other car

Whew, just had to vent

My friend just told me her daughter took nude pictures and sent them to a friend of hers whose brother supposely like her. First of all children should not have cell phones, that is how the pictures was sent. I told her to find out who this boy was and if he was a minor then speak to his parents and if he was older report him to the police. Well I think because her and her daughter has not been getting along she is a bit tired and has given up. I tried talking to her, oeverall she is a good mother to both of her kids but I think her oldest is rebelling because she has remarried and has another daughter ( this is the one who cell phone she used to send the pic)Actually her ex-husband who she remains friends with bought the youngest kid the cell phone and would periodically check the phone, he is the one who ound the pics. Anyway she sent them without the sister knowing because the date and time was really later (of course after bed time). Well I think she should get her birth control and condoms but she thinks it is promoting sex..I think it's better to teach "safety" than nothing. I told her to check and see if she had a myspace account all the kids today seem to have them. Wow..you hear about this stuff on the news but you never think it might be me or someone close to me

My nephew married his HS sweet heart on Friday and did not tell anyone until yesterday. I like her but my mom is upset, I have no idea why I think it's because she has a kid already but who knows. She is a nice girl very ambitious studying to be a nurse. I am happy for them

I have a fried who is so stubborn and who refuses to listen she drives me crazy. Today we had an argument because she says her ex will not drive 30 minutes to pick their kid up for visits but yet she won't either. Now she was living locally and decided to relocate because I think she was jealous of his new relationship. So I asked her how can you expect for someone to do something that you yourself refuses to do, I tried to explain to her that one has to lead by example.

My mom just called to let me know my nephew will be there for about 4 days, my brother and his wife are going to GA. I don't mind but when my mom says she will babysit, it is usually me who does all the sitting I love my newphew but it is week before school I was hoping to get my books on Tuesday and get a head start but I do not think that will happen, he enjoys spending a lot of time with me and 9 times out of 10 he will sleep in my room. Which means he is going to talk my head off and want to get on the computer which I hate I started by the way. But the internet has some really great educational games for kids his age. Oh well I just needed to vent

My dad seems to give me money every chance he gets, again he gave me $30.00 I ran a couple of errans for him. So I treated him to lunch today. I am thankful for the money because I plan on using it towards my books this semester, it's money that I really need

New totals:
Cash:$15.68
Personal Checking:$344.00

Well I went to see my dad today and he says to my "you want some money" out of the blue and I said to him for what and he just gave me $45.00 I was so happy because next week I see the MD which will cost me $20.00 and last week I had an eye exam which was $30.00 so basically I lost nothing

Wow, I can't believe December will be two years since my SIL died and I did not realize yersterday was her birthday. I miss her a lot

My friend that is. I am sure I have complained about her before, well the bank seized or deactivated her debit card in which she used on regularly bases for money she obviously did not have. She was bouncing so many checks...well not really checks, but when ever you use your debit card without the funds the bank allows you to complete the transaction and charges you a fee. I told her sooner or later they were going to close her account and that she needed to make some serious sacrifices to get ahead...only because I know. But she did not listen; this is the same friend who bought sandals last week. But here is the kicker she has a business account with no funds and then used that debit card to complete her transaction, what she doesn�t realize is the bank will file charges against a her person who knowingly and deliberately writes bad checks in her case uses her debit card. In FL if the amount is equal to or greater than $500.00 it is considered a felony. She thinks they did this because she has defaulted on car loan. She doesn�t realize the money she has spent on fees; it could have been used for some thing else like paying her bills. She will never get ahead this way

Oops, I forgot I told her once before and not again that she needed to keep her business separate from her personal life because once you cross that line if you owe money through your business the other party can come after your assets, the little she has
Guess we all have to live and learn and she will sooner or later

Now my dad is on my list of people who are driving me bonkers. He always want me to be the clean up woman so to speak. He has allowed this woman to move into the house with out any deposit or rent, then I just found out he has not switched over the electric. Now he is one of those people that when you speak to him it is like talking to the wall, he always does this crap and then I have to go behind him and clean up the mess. This was the same thing with the last tenant
Arrrrrrgh!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now August will be two months and no rent

Now don't get me wrong I love my little nephew, but I am always stuck baby sitting. My mom says she'll do it but I am the one who he seems to be attached to the hip. He's 3 and I needed to run a few errans which always slows me down when I have him. I have to buckle him in, move extra slow, he wants this or that etc...Seems like we well me, have had him at least twice a week for the last month and it puts a toll on if you're working 2 jobs. But according to my mom my brother needs a break...well what about me?

Well I ended up lending my sister the $150.00 we will see if she pays me back today, I am sure she will have some kind of excuse...she always does. Anyway I do not know why I do it, lend out money that is. I am always annoyed, because when the day rolls around to repaid you can never find that person, I guess I have not learned my lesson yet

Just balanced my checkbook and was off $13.00 so I am happy ( entered in transactions twice)Then I added $3.62 to the challenge brining my total to $175.93, it was a no spend day so I just added the $1.00 for the no spending and $2.62 to round up the change

I ended lending my siser $150.00 boy I tell ya, she needed for her house payment she is suppose topay me back on Friday we will see. Me and my big mouth I told her about the check from the insurance company

I had a queen size bed that I bought from a friend for $100.00 when I moved I placed all my things in my sisters garage well she gave my newphew my bed and after she did called me and ask me if I wanted it, can you believe it. Well another friend is selling hers for $150.00 right now I do not need a bed at this point (until I move) but hers is practically new, she bought it and basically moved in with her b-friend so this has been at her place basically unused. Being that I will be trying to buy me a place next year I am wondering if I should go ahead and purchase this bed and set it to the side explaining to my sister do not touch. Matter of fact I have to go over there this weekend and wrap my sofa because she has a new dog and I am sure she is not taking care of my stuff, allowing her dod to jump all over my sofa but that is the price you pay I guess. I will be see if she will come down on the price to $125.00, for the bed that is and pick it up next week (payday)

It seems like when ever I pick up lunch for anyone else I am always screwed out of money. I had GC for the Oliver Garden since X-mas and decided to use it. Well of course everyone wanted to order and I ended up spending a $1.00 more than anticipated. It's not the $1.00 that I am upset about, it's the fact that when ever I pick up lunch I always have to add to the order But I will from here on out keep my big mouth shut about where I am going for lunch.

And to top it off I ended up spending $2.88 at Walgreens for a snack and pop so of course I had to match this amount for the challenge adding $3.12

Then my sister called wanting to borrow $200.00 which I clearly do not have. At first I said ok but now I have to call her back and tell her no, I am not cleaning out my EF to lend money. I just got the money my brother owed me after 3 months, which I find out he owes me $20.00. Get this he gave me $300.00 which I used to pay off my cc thinking I made an extra $30.00 well the $30.00 was for my nephew so now I have to pay my mom the $30.00 because she gave it to him. I wish I had known all of this before.Apparently my brother forgor about owing my nephew...arghhhh!!!!

And last but not least got a phone call last night from a friend , her daughter is my God daughter and today is her B-day of course I forgot but the kicker is a last minute b-day party was planned and of course I have to go bearing a gift
Not that I do not love my GD but by looking at all my accounts I am broke until payday; which hopefully will be next week, who knows with my boss
