Bonus at work

December 4th, 2008 at 02:03 pm

Each year we get a small bonus at work.
I am not even sure we are getting one this year. I am going to be very curious to see how that shakes out. Hopefully I will get my yearly raise. Last year it was 24 cents. So as you can see we are are not paid all that great to take care of older people. I am not complaining---just hoping. Everything extra is just pure icing to me. I never count on things like social security. Again icing on the cake.

Keeping taps on bills and finances. So far so good. I am waiting on my VISA---I want to get that thing paid right away. I will feel so much better about money once that is done.

Today I am going shopping for some gifts.
Running some errands.....I like to do as much stuff without the girls as possible.

Have a good day everyone. Stay frugal.

    That's a great attitude, to not expect anything and consider it extra. My mother always says "expect the worst, but hope for the best". Not exactly an optimistic outlook, but I think it's more realistic and helps avoid disappointment when things don't always go your way.

    Yes I have learned to be happy in the moment and if you get extra----- what a blessing indeed.
    Life lived in simple terms seems more fruitful.
    Have a nice Holiday season!
