It's my last free week before my project picks back up! And phew what a wonderful week it is. One of my community members informed me of half priced tickets for the zoo so I'd like to go this weekend.
It's been fun having my close by neighbor to hang out with. It certainly is the life distraction I needed on days I like these. I get the workday to myself and then hang out with him afterward. I see why people like this.
It's nice and easy!
And our community puts on lots of great events.
I bought a bike yesterday as part of a wellness credit I was awarded so YaY!! Eventhough it was technically free money, I'll still consider it a good purchase if I get 10 rides out of it. I think that can be achieved. Once the sun peaks today, I plan to take it out.
And for the first time, I have a Valentine this year. That's pretty cool. And he gets so excited, he told me long before!
I'm even getting chocolates. Nice, right?!
My anxiety is well managed. I haven't had more long-standing thoughts about getting back on Zoloft because my life is distracting enough. So that's good.
I shall still keep it in the background though.
Yeah, money wise. My fixed costs are higher than ever with my pricey apartment, rental furniture, new car loan, and student loan. But auto-payments keeps it out of front of mind. And also, duh, having enough income to cover it. And also having my FIRE cushion. All's good on the money front.
I spend way too much time trying to squeeze dollars out of nickels, but oh well.
My bank bonus churning has come to a complete halt for now because I have way too much other stuff to think about.
I did manage to accumulate 150k AA miles in the last couple months so that was kind of fun. But for some reason opening a savings account is near impossible because they can't verify my identity. Oh well.
And using their pre-approval tool, I don't think I'll be approved for the other cards I would need to get my Australia lodging for close to free.
Alright gotta go!
