Get ya money right!!

So I was just flipping thru my calendar and realized that the hubbers and i will be starting our newest adventure together in less than two weeks! What is this wonderful new adventure i speak of? It's called Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace University...and we are geeked! (ok soooo im prolly a bit more geeked cuz im a nerd and get excited about stuff like this..totally fine lol)

The program usually is hosted at a church or rec center and focuses on building strong financial habits...it supposedly teaches principles that help people get their money situation together by becoming debt FREE and then building wealth (both "self" wealth and wealth for others...which i think is flippin awesome). Reese and I have always been pretty good with finances, and we really dont have that much debt (the only debt we DO have is some school loan stuff) but we figure it's really important to be as educated as possible...ESPECIALLY when it comes to finances...I've always heard finances are a lead killer in marriages and while i dont see that happening w us even if we DONT take this course we still think it will worth our time and create a much more *free* life for us... No matter how hard ya try to live a smooth sailin life SOMETHING (insert: "life") will happen and throw ya for a loop...we just dont want poor financial planning on our part to be the reason for the bump in the road. Not to mention, we really want to learn more about investing so i really feel like this class will be great...yes, yes i do!!

The course is made up of 13 sessions held once a week and each session focuses on a given topic relating to finances (obviously lol).. i really think they ALL sound great and will be a great foundation for us to build on...as much as i want to say and believe "money isnt important" the SHOCKING reality is that welp...it is. Now i still truly believe ya cant BUY happiness...but being in control of your finances (versus ur finances controllin you), living within your means, and being at peace with all of this most DEFINITELY can bring happiness! i refuse to have money be a burden on our lives and our marriage and i will do watever i can to make sure it never becomes one.

I can't believe ive had enuf downtime at work to blog right now...SHOCKER! This week has been madness....and this coming week has the possibilty of bein even crazier cuz we have OR cases almost everyday and cath cases as well...and yet we only have TWO open beds as of now...which will already go down to one bed tomorrow. So needless to say this week will be crazy..and since i picked up extra (cant stop askin myself "WHY?!?" now lol) i will be experiencin all this madness hands on...whoop whoop! lets get get get it! orrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr not. either way...ill be here. And im thankful for this downtime at work instead of bein caged inside on a beautiful day AND runnin around like a chicken w his head cut off.

i really wont have a time off stretch til next weekend..but even then ill be runnin around! but for good things! my "niece's" angelversary celebration is a week from today (on the 18th it will be 5 years that God took her home...cant believe it). It will nice to be with friends and family...esp cuz i feel like i havnt seen em in FOR-EV-ER! Then reese and i might be headin up to south beezy on sunday for my cousin's confirmation but not sure yet...we most likely will be but ill be in the process of switching to night shift schedule and i dont wanna screw myself and end up barely making it thru monday night...SOOOOO well see! I'm 95% positive we'll make it up tho...so even tho ill have 3 days off ill def be runnin around everywhere! for good things tho...with good people...oh yea and i have my second softball game friday!! WAHOOTY!! lol had tons of fun last nite so lookin forward to this friday...im so thankful i work w fun people...work life could be very unfortunate if i didnt!!!

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOk...back to work...changin the outcome...savin lives..ya know ya know lol
