I'm so glad it's friday! this week just flew by.
Well all my work is starting to pay off. See there are all these old balances from like 2004, that the old receivables girl was too damn lazy to research and try to collect on, so when I have time, I do research like that. I have closed so many 2004 account balances, not only that but I'm getting these people to pay! The Smart and Final account that I spent half my day researching because the invioces were 4 years old, I was digging in the warehouse boxes, shit it took like 6 hours to pull, sort and calculate, and in the end I had made a 21 page packet for the collections agency I sent it to, cause the A/P guy was giving me the brush off. Well finally they are agreeing to pay the full amount! There are just so many accounts like that, that I've spent so many hours on and their payments are beginning to trickle in. I dunno I guess because I see actual results from all my work. It's nice.
Anyways I also finished one of my books today. I get to read an hour a day when I relieve Laura for her lunch hour and I finished up The Five People You Meet in Heaven, it was such a sweet book. It made me want to hold Jacob. I started on a new one too, Sea Glass, and so far it's pretty addicting.
I paid off my old Navy card last week. That also feels good. Next month my Target card will be paid off. Those two alone is $1,500 off of my debt. If I factor in the Kay Jewlers card I paid off two months ago that comes out to $2,100 off of my total debt. Doing the accounts receivable is like Karma lol it's so funny, I use to be like some of these assholes who wont pay! Now I am so nice when I call the agencies I owe money to, and just try to come to an agreement. Also now I am so anal about paying all the bills on time and about balancing my check book daily, I have not overdrawn a single time since I've opened my account.
I think my favorite part of the day has become the mornings. I wake up and lay on jacob and he just holds me and strokes my hair or back. I swear he has the ability to make me want to pull out my hair, and the ability to make me feel like the most beautiful important person in the world.
Well a dirty house awaits my tending, I better go. happy friday all, enjoy your weekend!
