2023 Financial Goals
“Better late than never,” “a spring start,” “spring is the time for plans and projects,” and all that…So a quarter way through 2023 and I can honestly say that this year already has one up on 2022. I’m living alone in an amazing apartment (who knew dishwashers did something other than be broken and hold…
April 2023 – Life Update
As always, I know. Let’s just get to it…The Job – Things at University B are actually going pretty great. Boss Lady continues to be exactly who I thought she was and this job feels…familiar. It is the same role I had at University A and there is no real “learning curve” for me. I…
2022 Financial Review
Author note: I began writing this post on December 31, 2022, and just never got around to publishing it because I was a bit depressed and checked out at the time. For that reason, it is a bit melancholy and doesn’t reflect where I am now (employed full-time, going to the gym, happier, and generally…
Unpacking…
I went a entire month without posting…wow. I won’t sport with your intelligence by offering an apology or a promise to post more frequently. Life has been lifeing recently, and when I’ve crawled into bed at the end of a long day, my thoughts have raced but my hands haven’t moved. In any instance, I…
The new gig, a move, and other life stuff
As you already know, I did not post last Saturday evening as I planned, and from this, we can learn two things: 1) I am not to be trusted with respect to my intentions to post and 2) life comes at you fast…While I didn’t mention it then, I was actually posting last week from…
February 2023 – Life Update…she’s back
Ya’ll…I know. But life has been life-ing over the past few weeks. I planned to get a post up as soon as I had news, and…I finally have news. Like…she’s back. Post Backlog – Yea…so I still need to get up my 2022 financial recap AND my 2023 financial goals. I have been dragging my…
A room with no view…and a coat.
I want to apologize for alarming some of you with my last two posts. I generally try to write once I have things “worked out” but I realized that waiting for things to settle had become an excuse for not posting at all, so the posts from the past couple of days probably seemed hectic/unsettling…
I forgot my coat.
It was a long day.I left the south a bit later than I had planned and arrived at a small, public university, in an only electorally significant, midwestern state, just thirteen minutes before my first MCAT prep class began. There was nothing surprising about the course content and I was significantly less anxious about the…
Happy Lunar New Year!
Yea…2022 was kind of a crap year for me (much of it my own making) and the earliest bit of 2023 has felt like a hangover (fixing ish that went wrong in 2022). But now I’m mostly healed up, feeling better, and ready to begin 2023 in earnest. I need this year to be better.…
They’re coming…
I was in a car accident yesterday and I’m okay but some of my bits and my ego are bruised. I will get my 2022 recap, new post, and my January balance post up shortly. Didn’t want anyone to think that I’d fallen off again. Just needed a bit more rest today.
