Welcome

Living is an adventure, and my adventure is deliberate. Welcome!

Worm Update and Money

     I checked on our worms today.   I had some eggshells and onion peelings to give them.  When I opened the bin, everything was covered in mold.  No smell, though.  The worms are alive and well.  I think there is too much food in there right now.  So the eggshells went into the trash (until the big compost is put up).  Scott and I think we need more worms, so perhaps tomorrow I will go back to Petco and get another container of red wigglers. 
     Today I did a budget.  Very boring.  Very necessary.  I feel so much better now!  We made some decisions regarding our wedding, and our honeymoon, and our monthly spending.  There will be no honeymoon.  That was the decision.  We decided that our goal for owning our own house was more important than spending a bunch of money on a trip.  We are also trying to put as much money as possible a month towards cleaning up our credit reports so that we can purchase a home.  Ugh, money!
We live pretty much paycheck to paycheck.  We have a thousand dollar emergency fund, but that is it.  We are hoping to get rid of most of our debt before purchasing a home.  I can't wait to have a home of my own!
