MBA Program and Payday

Started school today - it was a long exhausting day.  Worked and had school until 8:30pm thank god he let us out one hour early. I transition to the on-line program next week.  I already feel behind since the professor who taught the class I went to today is not the same on-line professor.  Hopefully they will transition me to the on-line program tomorrow so I can catch up.   Today was payday I had 16 hours of extra pay on my check.  Despite that I don't have any extra money to spend this week.  So depressing - I will forge ahead I just need to keep my eye on the prize - being debt free.  I paid the dentist 300.00 dollars I still owe $100.00.  My goal is to pay him off next week.  I still have a cold I haven't exercised at all this week except for my short swim.

Sick

I felt like I was getting a cold over the weekend.  Well it took over yesterday and today I feel like crap.   I made a big pot of chicken soup and took Nyquil last night.  At least I was able to sleep.  Today I'm not much better, more soup and more Nyquil tonight.  Tonight I'm drinking nighty nighty tea - I'm not a big tea drinker but I'm liking it.  I don't have to be at work until 1pm tomorrow.  So I'm not going to set the alarm.   My goals for this week are not going well.   I did go swimming which I don't think was a good idea.  It was 100 degrees on the roof but the water was freezing.   Today was a no spend day.  Yesterday I went to Treasure Island for soup supplies.   The next two days are going to busy I have breastfeeding support group tomorrow and Thursday I have school 5:00 - 9:00.  I have to go to class for one day and then I can do the rest on-line. I'm trying hard to catch up on Quality I have to finish up by the 14th.  I added 600.00 to my credit card debt.  The next few months are going to be tough.   More updates tomorrow.  
I'm missing my puppy girl!   The weekend can't come fast enough.

Another Weekend

Crazy M. Loving her ball

My baby has a new haircut

 
Why do weekends go so fast?   I accomplished a lot most of it work related. Due to potential for identity theft I joined an identification protection service - it was free for 1 year.   I checked my credit score  it was better than I thought - 730.  The amount of credit card debt is off the wall - so I need to focus and follow a plan.  The total is 76,156.00.  I added 600.00 to it to pay for train tickets for our trip to England.   I decided I would make weekly goals hoping I will hold myself accountable and accomplish them.  
 
Week Sept 8th - Sept 14th. 
 
1.  5 no spend days.
2.  Exercise 4 days
3.  Yoga 2 days.
4.  No new credit card debt.
5.  4 PDSA's
