attempting to think about finances

September 26th, 2006 at 03:51 pm

Thanks for all of your support. I haven't shared the details of the procedure with my boss - all I said was I'm having a medical procedure done. Still no approval to leave, but obviously I'm taking care of myself first. You're right - I've only got one body.

In financial news...I've been working on holiday shopping. I ordered several delicious soy candles from

Crooked Mile Candle Company. They've got new scents - cocoa cappucino! Caramel pecan crumble! Count me in (and my giftees, as well).

I'm contemplating purchasing a MP3 player with radio. I miss listening to NPR every day, and I can't stream it at work. The one I've got my eye on is 1GB, $69.

I've been busy stocking up on grocery gift cards. I have one other store to stop at (perhaps two), and we'll be set for the rest of the year. Neat!

Yesterday we watched a little Globe Trekker (anyone else a fan of this show?). They were bopping around several Carribean islands, and it looked heavenly. I told SO we should consider our Mexico trip again. We've got plenty of time to save up!

    Can you get reception at work? My roomate's offices just moved and she couldn't get reception but she bought an MP3 player and just downloads the podcasts of the shows she's missing out on and listens to them the next day.

    What's with stocking up on grocery gift cards?

    That one's all new to me, I'd luv to learn more, and hope you do a blog entry about it.


    TIA

    I'm fond of Globe Trekker - especially that little red-haired British guy who hosts. The shopper woman, not so much. Smile
