Nah, I'm just kidding. I saw my puppy today and she is fine besides being lazy and curled up in bed all morning. That's how she do.
Well, as ya'll can see by my beautiful side bar over there I have added a section called 'the future' bum bum BUM! Ya'll probably didn't even really notice though. Am I the only one that looks at those? I'm thinking yes. Well, ya'll might laugh at me but the future thing is about saving for my wedding. No, I'm not engaged or getting married. I hope to one day but, truthfully, its gonna be awhile. I have a bit of a comitment issue (who doesn't in this day and age?) and I'm still in college and will be for awhile. It never ends....*sigh*
well, I was watching some financial stuff on Tv (I'm totally addicted. I dunno what they are talking about half the time but they are soooo passionate about it!) and reading blogs and discovered that a lot of people are still in debt from their wedding. That's a no-no when it comes to me. There is no way I'm gonna get in debt and get right back in it as soon as I'm suppose to be starting my life with someone. Some people I have talked to have made fun of me for saving this early. They are like "Why are you saving if you don't plan to get married for another six or so years! That's ridicolous! ME ME ME MOO MOO MOO!"
*note: ME ME ME MOO MOO MOO! Is what I say when people are nagging or complaining. It's Missy speak, the quiz will be next wednesday.
But I say, bite me! That's the whole point! I mean, isn't it better to save for these kinda things years in advance than one year from the date? That way I have a chance to build up more money and it not have a wedding cake from wal-mart that is designed to look like a race track! I am speaking from real life. My friend, God bless her, had KFC cater her wedding and had a Cars (you know, the disney movie?) wedding cake. It even had the plastic things....it even said CONGRADS!....Honey, noooo. That's what happens when you don't save for your wedding. *shakes head*
Okay, before I hear any complaining that my savings fund has a lower goal amount than my future fund does, I just wanna say that isn't the limit. It's just that, when I look at it, it looks a little more reasonable than putting 300,000$ especially for a girl who only has enough to put a dollar in each account.
Speaking of which! isn't that little dollar amount cute! I mean, awww! Missy, is broke! I was gonna buy a pizza with it but instead made little envelopes with the name of the funds on the outside and put a dollar in each one....with the exception of incentives of course because I didn't have enough dollars.
I'm so happy my dog is not eated!
A HOMELESS PERSON ATE MY DOG!

Since you have limited funds, you might want to concentrate on one goal first, like the EF. You'll get there 3 times quicker. Just a thought.
And good idea saving for expenses before they happen.
By the by, I use the envelope system too. Very good for those vairable expenses.
