Day 4 : Fresh Fruit and Veg's Delivered!

As the list of things to do get's longer and the list of things done get's a little longer but not as fast as the other one... My lovely wife sent this to me.

This looks awesome! We try and buy local as much as we can, and the girls love fruit, and we are doing everything we can we eat better, and this will satisfy a number of things. 

1) The girls can have fresh fruit all the time, and we don't have to worry about trying to make sure we don't let things spoil.

2) we can get fresh veg's for meals every week.

And you know the cost is close to what we spend anyways, so it's not going to effect the budget.

Now to decide what size we are going to need. 

Day 3: Additions

Not only am I re-organizing my life financially, I'm also going to change it physically. I've been slowly losing weight and getting in better shape for a while now (including quitting smoking) which I've not been doing that bad on (down 30 lbs over the last year), but now I'm going to kick it in high gear. My goal is 40 lbs. down by my birthday, which I think is completely possible.

Day 1 : ReOrganisation.

Yesterday we awaited the Snow-Pocolypse and started going through the basement. We have had a few water issues down there from time to time, but the biggest issue is just the amount of stuff down there. There are boxes that haven't been opened since we moved into the house... which is a sure sign of too much crap. So we have a huge amount of stuff that we are putting in the "garage sale / craigs list" pile and hopefully we can get that stuff out of our lives for good.

Next up for me is the office up stairs, besides dealing with all of the stuff up there, we also need to put a new ceiling up there. I'm still deciding if I want to do it or I want to hire someone to just knock it out and get it over with.

Things I need.
1) another fridge, I'd really like to have a fridge we can put in the basement to hold more freezer goods, extra milk, juice, beer etc... we pack our fridge full at the moment and it's annoying.

2) large filing cabnit, for obvious reasons.

Financial Retard.

I'm so tired of being a financial retard... it always seems like the second I'm actually on top of things something comes up and all of the savings and emergency funds I had built up are gone. And more and more things keep piling up behind it now, you know just those little things that always pop up and you forget about them and then they bite you in the ass in the long run. So I need to put together a financial re-do plan for myself and my family, too many things are getting put off right now to satisfy old retardedness... so here we go... the first step is admitting I have a problem.

Things I plan on getting straight in my life, the deadline is my birthday, 08/29. Which gives me about 154 days to get my head on straight.

1) Organization, I'm the worst at organizing, yes I'm a Virgo, but I tend to have piles and I know exactly what is in said piles of stuff... this needs to stop... have to get my sh*t together.

2) Finances, god if I had a nickle everytime I went "oh shit, that bill was due yesterday"... well I probably wouldn't have any financial issues. I have to find a way to get my head on straight for the bills. And a system in place that makes it easy to do this sort of crap... I hate it... but someone has to do it right?

3) Budget! Budget! and ummmm BUDGET!

4) Get rid of stuff! We have too much stuff, we have soo much stuff isn't coming out of asses... we have to rid ourselves of stuff... and if some of the stuff is actually worth something? Well then Craigslist here it comes because I don't want it. We seriously have boxes of stuff from when we moved into our house just sitting in the basement... ALMOST 2 YEARS AGO! If that isn't a reason to get rid of it I don't know what is.

5) Live simpler. To me simple is the key, we don't have to give up some of lifes bells and whistles to do this. All of the things I've listed about will have the side offect of making life simpler...

So let the count down begin!

Presidential First Today.

Today our President is going to do something no President has done before... take questions from the InterWebz. Like his politics or not this is pretty cool for those of us that have been working on the webz for a long time. It's about time politics and the real world collide...

Aaahhhhh ChooOOOoo!

I need a roto-rooter for my head... the girls had it last week now B and I have it. B seems to be worse than I am, I just wish I could pop off my head and scoop it out. It's been a while since I took a day off because of sickness, and I realize that daytime TV really does suck.

Whaaa? Fulham Beat Man U?

Sweet! Fulham beat Manchester United 2 - 0 this weekend! Just awesome!

I'm watching the KC Wizards vs. Toronto FC match I DVR'd last night and getting ready for the Gaelic Athletic Club's 7 on 7 football tournament later on today.

Hiding.

shhhh..
