Lackluster?

April 15th, 2010 at 03:59 am

I just started blogging, and already feel like my blog is getting lackluster. People do not seem to be updating their blogs that frequently either. Or is it just me? If I go a few days without updating, I tend to forget about this blog. So maybe I will try and blog every night just to reflect on the day - money and otherwise. Hope I will not bore you to tears.

Money wise: There were some indirect spending for future travel. Unfortunately these are not necessarily pleasure related travel, but things that need to be done.

I checked out a book from the library called 401K for Dummies. Please don't laugh. Some help is better than no help at all, right? I have been diligently putting money in my 401K plan, but I still feel that so much of it is over my head. I would like to learn more, but do not want to be bored to death. I plan to do a little light reading on it every night. Any other suggestions would be welcome.

Other wise: I need to move from city A to city B pronto. It's not the dire need to move straight away, but I should definitely put much more focus into it and it should be my top priority. But it's daunting because it involves looking for a new job in city B, getting interviews lined up, landing a job that I will love or at least like more than average and then move. That's enough to send me into an anxiety attack!

In the beginning

...but this is not really a beginning. I used to blog under a different name a few years back. I was still paying off my debt then, now I am debt free and working on keeping and saving money. In a way this is where it all started - after visiting this site is when I started to seriously work towards my debt, and getting interested in personal finance. There is still much to learn and strive towards. So may I join you again? You can call me Aubergine. Smile
