April Goals Recap and May goals

This has been a very busy week for me and so I have not had change to review my  April goals and set my goals for May. I have to say I think April goals were an epic fail on my part. I think part of the reason is that I made goals with great intentions but as the days went by my monthly goals post got further down the list of post for April. To prevent this from happening again I am going to make a monthly goals tab. You see often when I am bored I will reread posts and things on my blog. I know pathetic, however it might help keep my Monthly goals fresh.

Sorry

Sorry I have been MIA.  My BF had a family crisis so last night I drive to PH (his home town) which is 1.5h away from me to see him! It was completely worth it despite everything that is going on I had a wonderful time. However I am tired as hell because I drive back and got home at 3:15 am only to be at work for 8:30 am. What I realized as I was talking with my friend on the way home was with everything that had happened I had not even done my May budget and tomorrow is Payday!! So I did that first. You will notice that my cat fund is down to $37.61, the vet wiped me out. So I have decided that I am going to continue funding my vet bill fund $100 a month, until I get it to a level I am convertible with. After lending money to my friend on Sunday and putting 1/2 tank of gas in my mom's gas big SUV I am left with $3.46 in my account. I have snowflaked that into my LoC. As for the monthly goals review. I will get to it later this week. Don't hold your breath it was an epic failure. I am going to have to come up with some other way to flash them in my face.

Any ways I am off to bed I am picking my mom up at the sleep lab tomorrow and I have to be up early, plus I really need to catch up on sleep.

Weekly Money Check-Up

1. The most I’ve spent this last week was on  emailing money to a friend.
2. Today I am thankful that we have the right to vote and determine the government of our country.
3. Money can’t buy happiness. One free thing I did last week that made me happy was plaid in the Alumni SGHL game.
4. I will consider this week a success if I get work done on my LLQP
5. One thing I appreciate about my mom is despite everything I can still count on her support publicly. 





Expect to see Monthly Goals Update tomorrow.

This morning when I got up I thought I need to do my weekly spending recap. But of course it was only the start of the day so I held off. Just as well that I did I got  call from a friend of mine that she needed money. She discovered last night that her apartment had bed bugs and she needed the money to take everything to the laundry. I could careless about the money at this point I just hope she gets everything sorted out and I know that when she can she'll pay me back.
