What We Ate Saturday I remember that Zoe was at work, but I cannot for the life of me remember what I made for myself. Sunday It was Zoe’s actual birthday, but she had to work in the evening. I didn’t even cut up any fruit. I spent: $36 at a ramen place $41 at Sam’s Club And that makes $77. It is what it is.

This week, I am thankful: that I was able to get on the flights Zoe isn’t 18 yet, so she can’t use Lisey’s flight benefits. that I didn’t have a middle seat The leg from Chicago to Honolulu was especially long, and I was lucky enough to get put into an aisle seat. I can, though, so I was flying standby.

While you can’t cash out all of your home’s equity, the process gives you access to a larger sum of money without needing to sell your home. How does a cash-out refinance work? The terms of your refinanced mortgage might significantly differ from your original loan, including a new rate or longer or shorter loan term.

For many people, working from home is a dream. Others, though, don’t really enjoy working from home. I enjoy working from home, and am glad that I have a career that allows me to do that. My husband, on the other hand, doesn’t enjoy working from home nearly as much. I don’t mind so much.

I don’t like budgets myself, and actually refer to what I do with my money as a “ spending plan.” My solution to this problem is to create a spending plan that actually works for me. Then, stop spending money on stuff that doesn’t fit with your core values. Everyone seems to dislike them.

Sunday Zoe had a night off of work, so the three of us went out for pizza and then went to Target, where we did some clothes shopping. I snuggled with Chiquita.

If you want to save money, in almost any area of life, it makes sense to work with what you have rather than trying to change what you already have. Work with What You Have in Your Home.
