TGIF!
Friday tomorrow and we’re planning on going to Disneyland on Saturday for the fireworks show. We got our season passes at the beginning of the year and we’ve been going there at least a couple of times a week since. Jojo’s big enough to go on most of the rides so we’re actually experiencing Disneyland in much more detail than we did when she was like 2 years old.
Workwise, I finally got permanently hired. My official hire date was Jan 2 2009.. So basically I was a temp for about 6 months. That ain’t too bad, I’m just glad that I’m actually accruing vacation time,have benefits and 401K too. It isn’t like I needed benefits, since I’m under my wife’s plan but it’s nice to know it’s there if I ever need it.
We got FIOS and I’m loving the 20Mbit Downstream and 5Mbit Upstream. I can download a DVD in like 30 minutes which is a good thing. Not to say I use it to download movies, but it’s nice to have that type of speed for what I need it for.
We’ve been living in Junes parent’s house for about 7 months now, and haven’t saved didddly squat. We’ve been eating out too much and spending money on things that we really don’t need. We gotta stop that! I thought we’d have out head on straight when we moved back here but we’re just spending like we did when we lived here before. Things have got to change and It starts with me, I need to set an example but it’s just too hard with all the things that we can do here in LA. In South Carolina, there was nothing to do, so we could save. But here in LA, $500.00 goes really quick in a weekend. It’s all about will power and well we gotta do it if we wanna buy a home in Southern California.
Peace folks.. we’re gonna watch a movie and then knock out. Got work at 6:00 AM tomorrow.
