UGH!

I have been running a bit busy lately and have not really been blogging like I would like to. Hopefully, I can catch up on waymarking and flip those into some interesting blog posts. Keep tuned dear reader and we shall see.

With the insanity going on with borrowing money, it is getting important to get educated about money. One area you need to get to know more about is your fico score. You can learn about it at this LINK. Hopefully, I can get out of debt and get financially healthy enough to not have to worry about what my fico score is. Until then, it is a matter of getting educated about money so I can handle it better so life can be sweet.

Pathtags

I have been into geocaching for a while. I also have gotten into the geocoins. One side trade-able in the same vein are pathtags. I have not gotten into those as much but they still have some appeal.They are cool but I just have not gotten into them as much as i have the coins. I got into the geocoins first and had to draw the line somewhere. As with any hobby, you can drop a whole lot of money and still not be done with it. They are a neat dimension to the geocaching hobby. Check out their link HERE.

The Frugality of Patience

Yup, this is another of my ideas on frugality. No major new ideas here, just things that I have noticed that work. One thing to helps with frugalness around y place is being patient. Patience in the sense of waiting to be able to pay cash for things os I do not get zapped into paying more interest. It is also more than that. It is being patient enough to look for not only better deals but the best deals. It is amazing what you can get off ebay or auctions and at what price if you are willing to wait for your price. I am not good at being patient but it helps when the savings and deals start rolling in. In honor of this concept, I am starting a Consumers Advocating Hugh Savings Fund or CASH fund for short. Yes it is a pain in the butt to have to wait but so is trying to get out of debt or making payments all the time. I want more than that and I am willing to sacrifice today to have more tomorrow and the day after.

Historical markers database

I was looking around th 3ewaymarking.com website and found a website that has a database of historic markers. Since I like that sort of thing, I thought I would put it up as this week's webness. The link is HERE. Maybe I can generate a few waymarks from this.

Geocaching in Space

I have been a cacher for a while now. There is a fairly recent cache that has gotten some attention. It is a cache that has been put on the International Space Station. The link for it is HERE. Kinda cool.

Spring

Getting some weather into the 40s today. Made getting out for a walk a lot nicer. It is nice not needing the extra layers of clothes and gloves just to get out for walk. The days are getting noticeably longer. Not only are the days getting longer but it is getting obvious that it the days are getting longer at a faster rate. Guess that means daylight shifting time can not be too far behind. I grew up with daylight shifting time but I got really use to it when I first moved to Indiana. as much as I like getting more light in the evening, I hate losing it in the morning just as we started to get it back. I also hate getting use to getting up an hour earlier. I hate change.
