Adulting: You Need A Budget.

“Girl, I know.” I’ve been trying to get more serious about my finances. I’ve always been pretty frugal overall. Somehow, I was still able to get my hands on free stuff, but I knew there was more to money than just not buying things. Part one. I learned in college that cheaper isn’t always better.Continue reading “Adulting: You Need A Budget.”

Spiritual Talk: Suddenly September

Ack! It’s September! When did you get here? This year went by so fast like every other year and I must confess, I THINK I accomplished what I wanted for this year. I’m not sure. I thought I had New Year’s Resolutions but to be honest I don’t remember doing it. But I do rememberContinue reading “Spiritual Talk: Suddenly September”

Adulting: Groceries and Let’s Be Frugal

Which is better? I wondered with a friend. Eating out for free or buying groceries? I love the freedom of not having to buy anything throughout the week, but I admit I cringe while grocery shopping. Some stores do not have the variety, and some stores claim to be cheaper, but I see similar prices.Continue reading “Adulting: Groceries and Let’s Be Frugal”

Adulting: Networking.

I had no direction and openly and not-so-confidently told people I didn’t have a job. I wasn’t clear on what I wanted, and anythingContinue reading “Adulting: Networking.”

Neighbors

You blast your music on Wednesday around 10 o’ clock at night. But you helped me shovel my snow. Neighbors. You drink too much and why are you shouting you heard gunshots? Are you not afraid to get shot, too? Neighbors. You brought food by when you knew one of my family members were sick.Continue reading “Neighbors”

Adulting with a Car: Hang in There

I still need to vacuum inside my car. I loved how beautiful it looks after an excellent vacuum and how beautiful it smells after applying the cleaning dust and hanging the Yankee Candle air freshener. It just makes me want to drive around all day, pick up people and show off how nice my carContinue reading “Adulting with a Car: Hang in There”

Retirement

(Kou’s retirement letter, inspired by a retirement letter written by someone who worked in a company she worked at) Dear Colleagues and super close acquaintances, Peace out yo. I will miss you all, but social media makes me think the world is small enough not to miss you. I will probably be on Instagram onceContinue reading “Retirement”

Nothing Less

Lord forgive me for not caring as much as I probably should Or loving more than I probably could Nothing Less, nothing less Trying to give to the world my best. I’ve crossed my T’s and dotted my I’s Believe in my heart that I will survive. Faith with works make a powerful concoction OnContinue reading “Nothing Less”
