Which is good, because I didn’t have an operation after tearing mine. I haven’t had much trouble, but it is hard for me to step up on anything higher than a regularly sized step.

I have so many expenses right now, my head is swimming. Some of them are necessary expenses: property taxes, professional licenses, condo assessment, professional dues, as well as regular monthly expenses, while some are not so necessary: two trips to the beach in the next six months, dinners out, plane tickets, and a cruise next January. Plus all the other fun things I do.
I also may have to buy a new central air conditioning system in the near future, and that idea is scaring the pants off me. I am hoping to hold off on that, but you never know when that anvil will fall. Additionally, there is a tax credit and a state rebate you can get until the end of the year for buying an energy saving AC system, and that would help. I don’t know if the credit and rebate will also be offered in the future. Wish I knew. It would be a shame to miss that opportunity and then have to pay an arm and leg for a system next year. Still, it is a lot of money to shell out if you can wait some more.
I still have my regular job, and I am making some money from my part-time law practice. I am counting on being able to pay for everything. I will have to cut some dinners out and other frivolous things. Don’t want to mess with the vacations right now. Who knows when I will get these opporuntitie again? I guess if need be, I could get an
online cash advance
But I am going to cut the fat out my budget to make everything work. Maybe my law work will take off.

Now that I am a lawyer, I need lots of business cards to hand out. I ordered my first box from a friend, but I could only order 250, because they were a little more expensive than I thought they would be. But I wanted to give him the business. I may order business cards from him again, but I am going to shop around for a more economical place.
One thing you have to consider is the kind of printing you want. You can actually get them really printed, using the old fashion way, and the cards will last longer. Or you can get them laser printed, which is a little cheaper, but they may not hold up as well. But since I am going to probably change the info on my cards a few more times before I settle on something, I went with the cheaper before.
Now that I need to call on people to learn as much about lawyerin’ as I can, I really understand how valuable those cards are. I need to get a nice case to carry them in, or find a safe place to keep them. Right now, I have them all over the place–in my purse, in my catch-all place in my house, and in my desk drawer. So I need to consolidate.

Who is one to blame when A fire argues?? If a fire between two people is bad, then maybe both are to blame. But if it is the fire of passion, the blame is positive.

I watched part 1 of the latest epidode of The Bachlorette, enough to know that Frank has decided to go back to his old girlfriend, but I didn’t see part 2, where he tells this to Ali. I have to admit, I like Frank a little better now. After all, who of us wouldn’t want our old boyfriends, when faced with winning someone like Ali’s love, to decide he likes us better after all? It is kind of a fairy tale. I take it from the previews that Ali doesn’t take it well, which again, none of us in her shoes would. But if she is decided week to week whom she likes best, don’t the guys really have that ability as well?

A friend has invited me to go with her to Hilton Head in a couple of weeks, and I can’t wait. I haven’t been there in years. On top of that, I have been offered my family’s condo in Destin, and I can go there in the fall. Destin wasn’t badly hurt from the oil spill, so it is still OK. I am thrilled about both trips except for two reasons. I only have enough vacation time for one of them, so the other will be time off without pay. I can’t really afford that, but you can’t pass up vacation, can you? The other is, who to invite to Destin. I have asked friends to go with me in the past, and they have loved it. But I think they want to be invited back, and who can blame them. I just get the condo once a year though, so I have to spread the joy around. I hope they understand that. I have a lot of teacher friends, I can cross them off right away. They can’t go during the school year. Once I figure it out, I probably won’t say much about it. I don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings.

I watched episode 8 a few minutes ago, and right away, I remember that Ty had already been voted off. Again, I wonder if he was the one I saw at Harris Teeter. He does live in Nashville.
I was just going to watch that one episode, but really want to go ahead and watch episode 9, and then I will be caught up. To see what happens with Frank. I never understood what she saw in him to begin with..

I am two episodes behind on the Bachelorette, and I am going to try to watch one tonight. But I could swear I saw Ty in the parking lot of Harris Teeter in Nashville. hmmmm. Wouldn’t that be a hoot if that was him? And I don’t he was with Ali, but on the other hand….she was blonde. I need to catch up! Don’t be a spoiler and tell me.

Outside a broad downright rots the laughing luxury. Sometimes we just have to say silly things that make no sense whatsoever.
