Zero Percent Balances for Home Improvement
November 18, 2009
Life isn’t all fun and silliness, is it? After my girl and I spent a full week away from reality on vacation, it was time for the two of us to confront reality. From high interest rates on our credit cards and our auto loan to household projects left pending, she and I had our work lined up for us. And I’m persistent old dog, so I was not giving up on my gps plan, either.
First we addressed the credit cards. Gratefully, even in this time of tough credit, credit card companies and auto loan agencies seem eager to please people with good credit. My wife did a great job isolating the best deal on refinancing our auto loan. This should compensate for my blunders with online penny stock trading.
I’m thankful somebody in the household 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 should genuinely provide us some breathing room.
Then we had to address a number of house improvements we had been planning for quite some time. Some may suppose we have no business investing in betterments 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.
Thankfully, she’s being either encouraging or tolerant of my small 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 bluetooth GPS receivers.
I believe GPS technology has evolved enough and grown inexpensive enough that we need to incorporate it into our life.
I’m only relieved my wife and I are on the same page for most of this material. People’s lives can be so much more problematic when the individuals around you use our troubles as launching places for their pride rather than opportunities to unify and grow.
