A few days ago, we went to the toy shop to buy a toy for each of our kids. We gave them a certain budget for toys and let them search toys on their own. My daughter’s choice of toy went beyond the budget set for her but Hubby was considered her request since she has done a very good deed earlier. On the other hand, my li’l boy who doesn’t have any idea on cheap or expensive toys thankfully chose a toy that is way below the budget set. He chose a doctor playset! He said, he chose that because he now wants to become a doctor. Hmm.. I’m sure his ‘ambition’ will change from time to time, he might even end up getting a Cardiovascular Technologist Jobs in the future.

Since I’m on vacation, I’m on an Eat-All- I-Can mindset. I’m not thinking about my weight, calories and stuff. I just try to eat all my favorite food here in the Philippines and I will have to think about my weight and appearance later.Yes, I will be starting afresh on the first month next year. And this time, I promise myself to finally complete my weight loss program, be healthy and wear all my clothes without the yankees stadium cufflinks .

It’s the end of the year and I’m happy to know that this year we’ve already paid off our Grolier Books in full. We had it in installment for 2 years. We only have one more thing that we have to pay off in full and we consider ourselves debt free. Our house payment is almost completed, hopefully this will be the last  year. After this, I hope to take a break in monthly installment payments and think of creative ways to earn and save money. I’m an officially ‘discount card’ and coupon collector like that of eddie bauer coupons  and I tell you this really helps saves cash. So, this is one of the simple ways for me to achieve financial fitness.
