Found my Tostitos Rebate Check

Last night I decided to start planning my December budget. As I was going thru all my bills, throwing out junk mail etc., I found my Tostitos Rebate Check for $8.00. Lucky I found it because I would have to deposit it before Nov. 20, 2007. All that work trying to trade for the rebate form, filling it out and when the check does come I lose it....I would have been pissed off.

I'm trying my hardest to get my finance and life organize. When I move I want a fresh start. I want to be financially stable and start paying off my bills. Start saving $$$ for a vacation in Europe and a house. I feel like, I've been living paycheck to paycheck. The funny thing is, I make a pretty good living but I find that living in the bay area, all your $$$ goes to rent.

Living cost is so high that I find it difficult and stressful living in the bay area even though the weather is beautiful year round. I wonder if it's even worth it because I was working like crazy and I hardly ever got a chance to enjoy the weather. There are beautiful mountains, the beaches, diverse culture etc. but I'm not sure if I would be happy living in a place where I'm living to work and not work to live.

I feel moving to Nevada, where living cost is a lot lower, I will be able to get myself competely out of debt. Finally I can take a deep breathe and live comfortably and not have to worry about how I'm going to pay the rent. It will allow me to have the extra $$$ to actually take a vacation enjoy my life while I'm young. I can't wait.......
