Default Re: Insomnia Thread...

MMM carrot muffins. Sure would like some... I'll just pretend to eat them. It is better for my diet that way anyway.

I refuse to use a real credit card. The one I use is my American express so I am forced to get it paid off every month. I haven't used a real credit card in 2 years or so. The problem is that right now is that I'm transitioning from one job to another and the new job has a really good cafeteria so thats $40/mo I shouldn't be spending. I have to stop being tempted to eat there. My last job had a food truck that would come by and the food wasn't great so the temptation was much less. I think my current problems are because I won't use a credit card to put off my debts. So in the short term it is painful, but like you said, the alternative would likely cause long term pain. I should be out of this mess in the spring when I don't have to pay so much to heat the house. I just have to push through this rough patch and make modifications to my life style until then. This is why I didn't want to spend more than $20 for some dragon fruit plants the other day.

That reminds me. I don't know if I responded to your earlier post about my hydroponics. I grow year round, I grow only things I can eat. My hydroponics system is the one thing I don't cut back on. I could probably save $30/mo on the electric bill if I stopped my hydroponics. As for pictures, I've posted links to my webcam occasionally. You could find it by going to the link in my signature if you are really interested.
