I’m making major, major progress in organizing my bills. I finally grit my teeth and tossed years of statements for my utilities, cell phone, satellite TV, auto insurance bills. Just now I’m going thru a year’s worth of credit card statements and trying to match them to the year’s worth of receipts I’ve collected. I don’t know how I let my finances slide like that, but at least I still pay my bills in full on time, it’s just the organizing that’s behind. So I figured the quickest way to find receipts to go with the statements is to divide the receipts up, within their current categories of “food”, “gas”, and “miscellaneous”, into subcategories of which credit card they went with. There are some restaurants I can remember going to based on the dates, but I came across one for El Cholo Cafe in late August that I can’t imagine why I’d go to. It was just a couple of days before Mr. W and I rediscovered each other, and it was months after the ex and I stopped hanging out. So I thought, “I’ll check my blog!” Sure enough, there the answer was. I was having a miserable weekend having recently ending a potential something-or-other with someone, and my old trainer/roommate Brian had come over to my house to replace my garbage disposal for me, and I’d taken him out to dinner to thank him.
Ahh, the memories. =)
I love this blog thing.
