Zero Percent Balances for Home Improvement
October 29, 2009
Our lives aren’t all fun and silliness, is it? After my wife and I passed a good week away from reality on vacation, it was time for the two of us to face the music. From exorbitant interest rates on our credit cards and our car loan to home plans left pending, we had our work lined up for us. And you know, I’m determined old dog, so I wasn’t giving up 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 optimum deal on refinancing our auto loan. This should compensate for my blunders with online penny stock trading.
I’m thankful somebody in the house has some responsible sense of our financial situation… and it sure as heck is not me. But the lower interest and lower monthly bills should genuinely supply us some breathing room.
Next we had to discuss a number of household improvements we had been designing for quite some time. Some might suppose we have no business investing in improvements at this time, but what can I say? We prefer to stubbornly push onward.
My wife has been looking over the different available steam showers and we both agree on the bathroom lights and 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 trivial gadget fixation. I’m not too bad about it, but I have my weakness. Currently I have narrowed it down to a handheld tv, DVD projectors or a Garmin Golflogix GPS. Speaking of GPS, we both agree it is time to invest in a bluetooth GPS receiver.
I think gps tech has evolved enough and grown inexpensive enough that we need to incorporate it into our life.
I am only relieved my girl and I are on the same page for a majority of this stuff. People’s lives can be so much more problematic when the individuals around them use our troubles as launching places for their pride rather than chances to unite and grow.
