Lots to Cover Today

I have keys to my own place and I can move in whenever. It's a cute, well organized whittle apartment. I can paint walls, get a dog and pull my stuff out of storage, finally. It has big windows facing east and west to allow tons of natural light into my place. My power bill should be pretty low because of my schedule. It has white burbur (sp) rug, which I'm considering covering with something that has colors. On the west side, it has sliding glass doors to allow the sunsets into my place. This place truly is a non-smoking place and I don't have to worry about it.

The doggy part is the best part, however, there is a size limit, up to 25 lbs. Now all of you who know me, that is a really small dog. I'm working on my very cool landlord to allow me to get one that is at least 40 lbs. I've been hunting pretty hard for my next kid and with time I'll find one soon. The cute puppies are hard to turn down, but my budget doesn't cover both the shelter fees and get a few new items I have to get. I'll get one, that is a promise to myself.

Now, to a more serious note. If the jerks in DC can't get off their asses and pass the payroll tax cut, I will be forced to cancel my health insurance. I can't live off of $1300.00 a month and that is what it will be if the tax cut doesn't continue and I keep my insurance. After my rent and 2 utilities, I would be left with choosing which bills to turn off and am afraid the my cell and internet bill would be one of those items. I don't even want to look at how my budget would change if the payroll tax wasn't extended.

Merry Christmas Everyone
