Spending Spree

By Mrs. Accountability on July 25th, 2008

Our cash flow problem has ceased. Whew. The client that Mr. A billed the other day paid 75% of the amount due. That’s okay, he’s worked with her for over two years and she’ll pay the rest soon.

I sat down on Wednesday night and listed all the bills that are upcoming, estimated the gasoline usage until the end of the month, listed the credit card that we … click here to continue reading Spending Spree

Cast The Beam Out of My Own Eye

By Mrs. Accountability on July 16th, 2008

Matthew 7:5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother’s eye.

The day after I wrote this post about my mom’s $6480 washing machine, I read this post from Jesse at The Penny Saved: PMI, the nasty little blood sucking leech that’s hard to get rid of.

I cringed as I … click here to continue reading Cast The Beam Out of My Own Eye

Is It The Law of Attraction? Or Just Wishful Thinking?

By Mrs. Accountability on July 11th, 2008

If you are visiting from Carnival of Money Stories, Edition #68, welcome to Out of Debt Again! Thank you Funny About Money for the hard work of hosting this event, and including my post!

Am I just imagining things, or could The Law of Attraction be at work?

So I’ve been missing in action for the last few days because right after Day 9’s Abundance Exercise Mr. A told his air conditioning … click here to continue reading Is It The Law of Attraction? Or Just Wishful Thinking?

Day 9 – 30 Day Abundance Project

By Mrs. Accountability on July 6th, 2008

Day 9 – $25,600

I’ve joined Millionaire Mommy in a 30 Day Abundance Exercise.Today I’m buying the equipment Mr. A needs to do a kind of work he loves. He’s a sheet metal mechanic by trade. I’ll hire a cement company to come in and lay a slab of concrete, then buy the materials needed to build a shed-type building for the equipment. I’ll buy an 8′ finger brake, … click here to continue reading Day 9 – 30 Day Abundance Project

Day 8 – 30 Day Abundance Project

By Mrs. Accountability on July 5th, 2008

Day 8 – $12,800

I’ve joined Millionaire Mommy in a 30 Day Abundance Exercise.

Today I washed our bedding and after I finished remaking the beds I laid there for a while taking a break from my uncharacteristic bout of energy.

When I actually have energy, I want to get things done. The only problem is when these rare occasions roll around, there’s so much to do that it’s impossible for me to … click here to continue reading Day 8 – 30 Day Abundance Project

Day 6 – 30 Day Abundance Project

By Mrs. Accountability on July 3rd, 2008

Day 6 – $3200

I’ve joined Millionaire Mommy in a 30 Day Abundance Exercise.

I’m using my money today to fix up a vehicle that’s sitting in my yard in bad shape. It ran great the last time we used it, but it did have a few little quirks. It’s been sitting for a few years without being started so I’m going to have the gasoline removed from the gas tank and … click here to continue reading Day 6 – 30 Day Abundance Project

Day 5 – 30 Day Abundance Project

By Mrs. Accountability on July 2nd, 2008

Day 5 – $1600

I’ve joined Millionaire Mommy in a 30 Day Abundance Exercise.

One of the things I’m buying with my $1600 today will be a cream separator. We’ve been wanting one of these for as many years as we’ve had goats. Goat’s milk is naturally homogenized and so it’s not possible to extract much of the cream without a separator. This particular one I’ve had my eye … click here to continue reading Day 5 – 30 Day Abundance Project

Day 4 – MM’s 30 Day I Want More Money Exercise

By Mrs. Accountability on July 1st, 2008

Day 4 – $800

I’ve joined Millionaire Mommy in a 30 Day Abundance Exercise.

Today with my $800 I’d buy myself a new desktop computer and a year’s subscription to Carbonite.

But first, even though I’m filthy rich, I’d link over to Megan at A Dollar a Day and e-mail her for a referral link for Carbonite so I could get an extra month free, plus she would get three extra months!

Gratitude: I’m … click here to continue reading Day 4 – MM’s 30 Day I Want More Money Exercise

Day 3 – MM’s 30 Day I Want More Money Exercise

By Mrs. Accountability on June 30th, 2008

Day 3 – $400

Join me and Millionaire Mommy in this 30 Day Abundance Exercise.

With $400 we’d buy the materials needed to reroof our carport, and build another carport on the east side of our home. We put up the west carport soon after we moved out here because the sun setting in the west causes the master bedroom to grow very uncomfortably hot during the summer. The east side catches … click here to continue reading Day 3 – MM’s 30 Day I Want More Money Exercise

Day 2 – MM’s 30 Day I Want More Money Exercise

By Mrs. Accountability on June 29th, 2008

Day 2 – $200

Millionaire Mommy has invited us to do this money exercise with her. I’m supposed to double the amount of money every day I’d use to go on a spending spree.

I have trouble thinking of things to spend money on because I try to live frugally and keep my wants to a minimum. I asked Mr. A what he’d buy if he had $200. He couldn’t think … click here to continue reading Day 2 – MM’s 30 Day I Want More Money Exercise
