It's Friday! Finally!

Friday is here! TGIF! I work today but then have Saturday and Sunday off! I'm really looking forwards to getting some projects done and for some relaxing!

This week was mostly work seeing as I've worked Sunday to Friday. Payday was Tuesday and saw a nice increase in my net worth. It's slightly misleading though as part of that is part of July's rent. Technically it should be $200 lower but until that money comes out I'll keep my net worth number as is.

I was a bit more spendy this week then planned on. Mostly because I bought new flip flops and printer ink. That stuff is stupidly expensive.

The low of my week was ruining the salmon for dinner last night. I was supposed to add corn starch to the marinade but added baking soda instead. WHOOPS. Baking soda and soy sauce do not play well together.

The high of my week was payday. Paying down that credit card, watching my savings inch up, seeing my net worth make a big jump. It's all good.

The best money I spent was the $55 on new flip flops. Yep pricey but they were exactly what I was looking for: Dark brown, comfortable and plenty of support. My old brown ones were way past their prime. With summer coming I needed to get ones to wear with my shorts and skirts. Was bad and put it on my credit card. Used my extra $70 to cover some of it along with the printer ink. Also the $16 I spent on my new Cuisinart Griddler. It was on sale at the Bay and I had a $100 Visa gift card from Christmas. So instead of $129.99 plus tax it was $116 after tax. After my gift card it was $16! Totally doable.

Weekend plans include laundry (it's never ending ugh), hanging with some friends, and scanning some old recipe books.

Tell me about your week.
