Luckily, January is a 3-paycheck month. I'm doing better, but I need all the help I can get.
Things aren't going great at work, and I'm pretty sure somebody's going to get axed. I definitely need this health insurance policy, so it would be horrible timing if it's me.
I've signed up for a silver-smithing class at my local adult-ed, and even though it costs a couple hundred dollars, I think it'll keep me from spending more in the long run, at the very least because it will take up 3 hours a week. Plus, I spend so much on jewelry, I should probably know what goes into making it, right? I should also take a cooking class and a pilates class, but baby steps, right?
