Snow day

Posted by LuLuGal | November 30, 2006 .

It is is 26 degrees today and the snow just keeps coming down. I was freezing so I got out of bed….had breakfast…then went back to bed.

Then I got out of bed about two hours later and went to exercise (hey I need to win that $10 bet!) and then spent some more time just lazing around in bed.

I finally got on the computer around 1:00 because I had an assignment due at 5pm. Can you say ’super procrastinator’?

After the assignment I went……..to play video games….you thought I was going to say back to bed right? No…I have lazed around too much for the day.

ING rate increase

Posted by LuLuGal | November 29, 2006 .

Great news folks. ING has increased their rates on the savings accounts. The rate as of today is a whopping 4.50%!!!!!! That means more money for you and me.

If you don’t already have an ING account (bad, bad you!) hurry up and click on the orange box on the right side of the screen and set one up.

It is REALLY easy to set up your account online….and you get GREAT interest rates! Much, MUCH better than what you would get at a regular bank.

Thank you WebDev

I really need to say thank you to my colleague at WebDev for the assistance with various elements on this website.

The majority of the technical stuff which I do not understand was taken care of for me by the great mind behind WebDev and I say a big THANK YOU!

Jagular and Texaco

Posted by LuLuGal | November 28, 2006 .

Jagular told me about the Texaco gas card in response to my ‘Where did Citgo go?’ post. I cannot remember if there is a Texaco close by but I will surely look out for it because I do so love to save money on gas.

Thanks for the heads up Jagular. By the way if you have not read this guy’s blog you are missing out on a LOT! He has the serious posts and the funny ones and he writes about EVERYTHING.

$10 bet …day 3

Posted by LuLuGal | November 28, 2006 .

I was trying to do some aerobics last night so I could be well on my way to winning the bet. My boyfriend saw me exercising and told me he was proud of me. I felt good so I walked towards him with a big smile, all happy that he was happy for me since I was exercising.

I had almost gotten to him when he said “So I will have to give you some cookies as a reward”. He is still trying to sabotage me!!!!

This just makes me even more determined to win this bet.

More credit report madness

Posted by LuLuGal | November 28, 2006 .

When will it end? I go skipping through the rest of my credit report and go to check my credit score and what is this?

My score is now 88 points lower than the last time I checked. I begin to have heart palpitations and then I start to hyperventilate.

I read the details of the drop and it says my loan was 30 days overdue. I scrabble up my receipts and they all look fine to me. This was Sunday night so there was nothing I could do.

Going to the beach

Posted by LuLuGal | November 27, 2006 .

It is supposed to be REALLY cold on thursday and all I can think about is going to the beach in St. Lucia. I am dreaming of Pigeon Point beach and I can feel the water in my mind. I might even go to Anse LaRaye beach since our house is about 5 minutes from the beach.

Okay now why did I start thinking about this? Now I am craving a beach lime. I can just see myself taking some baked macaroni and red beans and fried fish and lime squash and rounding up some people and going to the beach.
