Sunday, April 27th, 2008That’s been my life this weekend. My book supply has been running low so I decided to really make an effort to increase my inventory. And I sure picked the right weekend. Saturday morning I went for a bike ride and hit all the stoop sales in my neighborhood. And there […]

A Brief Respite
Monday, April 21st, 2008So for the first time in a few weeks I got home at a decent hour tonight. Was out of work by 5:30, and home before 7pm! So I will take some of my time to write a blog entry, and then will do a full hour of yoga after I’ve finished.

Light at the End of the Tunnel
Wednesday, April 16th, 2008I’m finally seeing the end coming for my recent busy spell, and it can’t come soon enough for me. Today was a beautiful day in NYC and, for the first time in about a month, I took a real lunch hour. I heated up my lunch (leftovers from last night’s beef stew dinner) […]

Monthly Financial Update for March
Sunday, April 6th, 2008I wrote at the beginning of March that this would be a “Treading Water” month financially and, sure enough, that’s exactly what it was. My credit card debt is exactly the same as it was at the beginning of the month. I paid down about $500, but I have $500 now on the […]

A Long Day
Tuesday, April 1st, 2008Things haven’t slowed down yet for me at work. I put in 10 hours Saturday and 6 hours Sunday, and didn’t leave the office until 9pm last night & tonight. Ah, the life of an employee of an investment bank. But I do see the light at the end of the tunnel. […]
