Money Goals Update
So umm, I’ve not been doing too well lately with money.

What’s In Her Purse?

Financial Update & Musings
It’s that time again! I’m finally getting around to updating my goal bars. I’ve received my tax return as well as my GST cheque, so I’ve thrown it into my savings. I had to use about $900 of it to pay of the monstrosity known as my MasterCard bill (Signed up for the Jenny Craig…

Falling off the Bandwagon
Oh man I am having some struggles, folks! I’m afraid I’m going to fall off the JC bandwagon today… lately I’ve just been wanting to eat and eat for no particular reason, and nothing is really satisfying me. Hellllppp! I don’t know what to do! I can’t tell whether it’s a craving or boredom that’s…
