Clearing Your Credit to Improve Your Home

Life isn’t all fun in the sun, is it? After my girl and I spent a full week away from reality on our vacation, it was time for the two of us to confront reality. From exorbitant interest on our credit cards and our car loan to household projects left pending, we had our work cut out for us. And I’m stubborn old dog, so I was not quitting on my GPS project, either.

The first thing we did was tackle the credit cards. Thankfully, even in this time of difficult credit, credit card companies and auto loan bureaus seem anxious to please individuals with good credit. My wife did a good job isolating the best deal by finding low interest auto credit and low interest credit cards.

I’m thankful someone in the house has some sure sense of our finances… and it sure as heck is not me. But the lower interest rate and smaller monthly bills should really provide us a little extra breathing room.

Then we had to handle a number of family improvements we had been planning for quite some time. Some may say we have no business investing in betterments at this time, but what can I say? We prefer to stubbornly push forward.

My wife has been looking over the different available steam showers and we both agree on the bathroom lights and bathroom pedestal sinks we want for our bathroom remodel, but after looking over some discount bedding tips, we’re no longer on the same page for the new bedding.

Gratefully, she’s being either supportive or tolerant of my little gadget obsession. I’m not too bad about it, but I have my weakness. Presently I have narrowed it down to a handheld tv, DVD projector or a Garmin Golflogix GPS. Speaking of GPS, we both agree it is time to invest in a dog gps collar for our dog’s safety.

I think gps tech has evolved enough and grown cheap enough that we need to incorporate it into our life.

I’m only allayed my girl and I are on the same page for most of this stuff. Life can be so much more problematic when the souls around you use our problems as launching points for their pride rather than chances to unite and mature.
