'I take a look at my budget. I've been thinking I'd spend a max of $1,500 on rent once I move out. I'm okay spending more than 30 percent of my take home pay on housing, especially because I really want to live alone in my own space for awhile.'
$246 $0 contributions should start kicking in with my next paycheck. I'll start out with 5% in my 401. I currently have ~$9,100 in a 401 from my last job.)~$600 and Roth IRA deposits kick in. I currently have ~$11,500 in my savings account.)7:40 a.m. — I wake up after snoozing my alarm for a full hour. I went to bed a little later than I usually do on a work night, so my body is not having it this morning. I climb out of bed and get ready for the day.
12 p.m. — My team is having lunch with our CEO today and he sprang for pizza! I grab a couple of slices of cheese and some spinach salad, and we settle in for our meeting. 6:15 p.m. — L. arrives and she brought quick pickled carrots! This dinner is going to be so good. We finish up our cooking, and then sit down and start in on braised tofu over rice, tteokbokki, spicy cucumber salad, quick pickled carrots, and sesame spinach salad. and when it ends all of us are yawning and practically falling over, so we call it a night. I could metro home, but it would probably take me over an hour and I'm really not feeling it.
12 p.m. — My stomach is starting to growl, so I go downstairs and heat up leftover Ethiopian food. I bring it back up to my room and eat while I watch2 p.m. — My plan to not get back in bed has failed. I curl up on top of my duvet cover and cover up with a blanket because for some reason it makes me feel less guilty than getting fully in bed. I put on an episode ofbecause I'm almost done with season three and I might as well make a dent in that.6 p.m.
9 a.m. — I get into the office and there's like one whole person here. Weird. I pop my food in the fridge, get a glass of water, and settle in to reply to client emails. One person in particular is driving me a little crazy, but I try not to let it get to me. 3:15 p.m. — I snack on a bag of Skinny Pop popcorn from the kitchen. Some of the pieces are good and some are truly terrible, so it's sort of like playing Russian roulette with low calorie snack food. My boss walks by my desk holding what looks like an iced espresso and yells"I'm dying!" before collapsing on the sofa. What a mood.
6:15 p.m. — I head out to do some organizing! N. and O. live just far enough away that walking isn't ideal, so I borrow my mom's car. I get to their house, hang out in the backyard with the doggies for a bit so they can get their zoomies out, and chat with N. She's honestly the sweetest. Afterward, I head down to the basement and continue tackling the mess.
9:30 p.m. — They arrive, salad in hand, and we all hang out in the kitchen and chat while I eat. Tomorrow is my mama's birthday, but she decides she wants to keep it pretty low-key. Plus, my sister is coming home on Friday for the weekend , so we're going to go out to dinner as a full family to celebrate once she's back.11 p.m. — Finally ready for bed! I climb under the covers and am asleep within minutes.7:30 a.m.
2:45 p.m. — I sat down for a meeting at 2 and by 2:30 I felt awful. Like, feverish, lightheaded awful. I can't concentrate because I feel so dizzy and like I'm burning up. Perfect! Love this for me. When the meeting ends, I let my boss know that I'm feeling sick and that I think I should work the afternoon from home. She tells me to feel better and I head out.
8:40 p.m. — We get back home and I pull out the donuts for my mom. She's very happy to see her favorite treat! I also give her the present I bought her and she really loves it. It's this really neat spherical glass vase that reminded me of her. 12:30 p.m. — I take a break from work to re-pot a couple of my plants that are in desperate need. I also prune a few and then check to see how the soil feels in all of them to see if anyone needs watering. I have a good number of plants and I brought them all with me from Boston. Most of them handled the move okay, but my damn spider ferns totally freaked out and are only now starting to recover.
