    Default i was bored, so...

    i went to the library today. what a nice time.

    there were lots of retired men (bats eyelashes) hmmm. think i'll go again.

    there was squirrel hanging out by the door catching the air conditioning. he was very tame. he would lay belly flop on the cool tiles. way cool.
    11% gross to retirement
    10% takehome to tithe and offerings
    emergency fund maintained at 3000(works for me)
    credit card debt 7500
    mortgage free
    freedom accounts/sinking funds that ebb and flow
    then live on the rest!

    i am trying something new. LDS church advises savings or debt repayment should be the same as the tithe. 10% each.

    I love the library and miss it - it used to be included with my taxes, but now I'm unincorporated and would have to pay over $200 to get a card...when I have a family it may be worth it, but as a single person, I'm just doing without.
    Goals:
    Lose 25 lbs (exercise at least 3 times/wk/eat healthy)
    Spend less
    Save more $ in ES
    Frugal challenge
    Do three things daily
    One new recipe a week
    Prep for zombie apocalypse
