Sabrina’s Money Madness

One of my coworkers had a seizure and had to be rushed to the hospital. We actually missed it but once we got back to the office we found out what had happened. He was coherent (somewhat) at walking around once we got there. He didn’t want to be taken out on a stretcher but […]

I should be happy for him and in theory I am, but I just know he’s going to mess up the money. He’s not the save or invest type. He’s the blow all of your money on bling type. Then once he runs out of money, he’ll hock the bling and go back to being […]

I have 3 or 4 gift cards. I get them as gifts or from my credit card companies as rewards. The problem is that I just hoard them and won’t use them. That stopped a few months ago when I called to find out the balance on one of my cards and found out that […]

Mainly because it hasn’t gone down. It’s still at 41%. I know this because neither my income nor my expenses have increased since the last time I complete it. However my ratio should decrease at the end of this month because I’ll pay off a bill. Hopefully my ratio will go down into the mid 30’s. I […]

My company bought out another company. Today is the day that the employees of that company start in our area. There are 8-10 people that will be starting. They’re sitting the majority of them together but there will be 3 or 4 that will be scattered in amongst us.
They’re all set up and ready to […]

I expected it to cost much more than it did. It was only $33 dollars and that included the oil change and fluid refills for my car. The next time I’ll need to get my tires rotated and get a new air filter. Before Winter starts, I also want to get a fluid flush but  […]

Which really stinks. I just don’t like the idea that someone is rolling around using my id. I’ve called the bus company several times but no one has turned it in.
Ugh. As long as they don’t do anything stupid with my id in their pocket, I guess I’m ok.

There are literally hundreds of jobs available at my company. It seems like they’re adding at least 10 jobs each day. I make sure I go through and look to see what I’m interested in and apply. I really want a new job and I especially want to make more money. I want to put […]

It’s way past my 3 months but I’ve just hit 3,000 miles. I don’t really drive that far or that often so I can really stretch the oil changes out. I just realized yesterday that I’m slightly over the 3k mark so I’ll be heading out one day this week to get it taken care […]

I started a new direct deposit that won’t take effect until my next payday. I wanted to start using my new account immediately so I did a bank to bank transfer to the new account. Well the money hasn’t hit my account yet. But it’s showing up as a transfer from my old account but […]

Bummer! I was so upset. I really wasn’t looking forward to paying $75 for a new monthly bus pass. But I got a bit of a pick me up when I called my school and they told me that I could just pay $20 and get a replacement id. It has the same picture (I […]

I got on the bus this morning and showed my school id which doubles as a bus pass. When I got to work and went to grab my work id, I noticed that I didn’t have my school id in my purse. I noticed one of those cardboard displays on the bus had fallen and […]
