October desktop freebie

Before I maximize my credit card limit, let me stop from window-shopping online. I had been hopping from one online store to another, I almost forgot the October calendar desktop freebie I get every month from the Shabby Princess.

This is BG playing with her aunt (my sister). I just thought the pictures captured the fun the two were having that day. Btw, click on the above image to download your free calendar desktop.

passing up on sale

I started digital scrapping two years ago. I wanted to have enough practice before I continue doing paper scrapbooks. That’s because I was so afraid to commit a mistake. It would ruin the nice papers. And I thought it would be much more affordable to do digital than paper. Then last night, I checked one of my favorite scrapbook store. They were having a sale! It was just an hour away till the sale ends. My mind was racing. Am I ready to do paper scrapbooks again? Do I have enough funds on my online account or do I need to get a cash advance to cover for the stuff?

Then I realized I’d get those kits some other time. Perhaps next year, I’m sure the store will have another great sale like this.

a shopaholic learns to budget

My sister is busy preparing for her wedding. It’s just two months away. I always tease her. You see, like my mom, she is known to be a shopaholic. So I kept teasing her if she still manages the wedding budget well or if she had blown it on a shopping spree. I even kidded that she might have to get one of those fast cash payday loans without her fiancée knowing so she could just cover it up. Of course she did not. She said she has learned to stick to the budget. She still wants to have the wedding she has in mind and wouldn’t want to ruin it with just a quick trip to Zara or Kate Spade store.

I have warned her though that there are a lot of unforeseen expenses and she better have enough extra on that day. Better be ready than sorry.
