Getting better

First, I have to say that this post is a blatant topic rip-off, or inspiration if you're feeling generous, from An English Major's Money. She was commenting how she thought things would get better financially over time. Not just idle hope mind you, but hope stemming from her excellent plan. By living frugally now, and building up what I would consider a sizable amount of cash reserves, she will be able to splurge now and again. Its a great idea, and one that is worth the effort.

As for our own efforts, I'm not sure. To live beneath one's means requires income, and hopefully steady income. L and I don't have that yet. We're working on it though. If she picked up the letter I solicited from a former professor today then I can apply for that long shot job. If I got the long shot job we'd be three steps from easy street. So, I should go out and buy the big tv right? Well, maybe I'll wait. I have to plan this lesson for my current job by tonight anyway, so I'll just keep plugging away.
