Getting Ready for Spring!

Well it's been another beautiful weekend here between the bright pink azaleas and majestic purple wisteria in full bloom, the multitude of people here for the Cooper River Bridge Run and Flowertown Festival. Spent Saturday with my family checking out the flea markets, then did some window shopping and gathering some more jewelry making supplies. Even went to our favorite chinese restaurant and ate to our hearts' content!

Today, I've just finished up a shift at my home-based research job. It's getting more interesting now that I've been "upgraded" to working with the clients who intially refused to do the phone surveys. I got a small pay raise so that's a good incentive and I actually completed quite a few of the interviews in just the 4 & 1/2 hours I worked today. Have also made a solid plan to get all my bills caught up and start knocking away at my debts to improve my credit rating. I may schedule myself for a few extra hours so I can make some extra money and I will probably also get a few extra hours in at my day job to bring in the overtime. This has been the first of many months that I wasn't completely broke at this time, even with rent and car payments due all at the same time. To me, that's a good sign that I am slowly getting things under control again ( I hope! )

The hubby has this week off for Spring break so I am getting a nice long "Honey-Do" list compiled to keep him busy! Gotta get the garage cleaned and get rid of a lot of the clutter we've accumulated over the winter months. Thinking about having a yard sale and then getting some clothes sold on eBay soon. Also, we are trying to redecorate / reorganize the master bedroom for the summer. You know, I always have a bunch of projects going on all at once!
