    Default First "official" paycheck :)

    So....I got my first official (from the company, not the temp agency) paycheck today They pay bi-weekly and one week in arrears, so it feels like it's been forever since I've gotten paid LOL. I'm really looking forward to being able to put a good chunk towards our saving's account again. When we were saving for our move from IN to FL, between BF and I we were putting away $800 every 2 weeks. It's been so strange this last year not putting anything in our savings account. So I guess that's what I'm posting about, here's to saving money again
