Sunday

Spent the whole day cleaning the car with Emma. We scrubbed it, waxed it, shined the rims, vacuumed, and polished the inside. It's nice knowing that even though it's not a fancy ride it looks the absolute best it's going to in current situation. Emma was really helpful, and patient as I meticulously poured over the small things, and took up most of our day cleaning. She's amazing, she came over the other day and tore into my closet while I went grocery shopping. I came home to a completely organized and now much more functional closet arrangement. I forget how good it feels to be in a clean and organized environment, and she makes sure I'm always never too far from one. I like things clean, but I also find myself sacrificing it for laziness sometimes, luckily neither of us can be in that kind of condition for too long and we go clean crazy. After a long day of cleaning, it's wonderful to have her there to cuddle with and take in a show. 

In a fit of absolute boredom at work I wandered into a free credit report website, I admit I was also curious to see how my credit was doing. It helps that I don't have any student loans, and no car payment but my 727 credit score is 51% above the "average American", and was in the "excellent" color range. Lately I've been really taking notice to how unstable the economy is, every day the job cuts hit people closer and closer to me. I feel blessed to have a stable credit rating, and a job that I'm up for a raise in a week at, and a car that even though it's not shiny and powerful on the road gets me back and forth and hasn't crashed and burned on the side of the road. I feel prepared to take on what lies ahead and hopefully come out of school to a stronger world, with possibilities that'll let me be happy doing what I love to do.
