Our lives are not all fun and silliness, is it? After my wife and I spent a full week away from the real world on our vacation, it was time for us to face the music. From high interest rates on our credit cards and our car loan to home plans left incomplete, she and I had our work lined up for us. And I’m tenacious old dog, so I wasn’t quitting on my GPS plan, either.

First we tackled the credit cards. Gratefully, even in this time of tough credit, credit card companies and auto loan bureaus seem eager to please people with good credit. My wife did a great job isolating the optimum deal on the best zero percent balance transfer credit card.

I’m thankful somebody in the house has some sure sense of our financial situation… and it sure as heck isn’t me. But the lower interest rate and smaller monthly bills ought to really furnish us a little extra breathing room.

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

My wife has been looking over the different available steam showers and we both agree on the bathroom light and the bathroom 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 encouraging or tolerant of my little gadget fixation. 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 bluetooth GPS receiver.

I think gps technology has refined enough and become cheap enough that we need to incorporate it into our life.

I am only assuaged my girl and I are on the same page for a majority of this material. Life can be so much more problematic when the souls around you use your problems as launching places for their pride instead of opportunities to unify and grow.
