A method to this madness
It’s Friday! Which means, it’s time for Friday 5!
1. What’s your routine when you sit down to read a newspaper?
I don’t read the newspaper. I read the headline news online.
2. When you fire up your web-browser on a typical day, what’s your browsing routine?
Browse the headlines on The Honolulu Advertiser website, check my e-mail (Yahoo and Gmail), then hit all of my “daily reads”, my favorite bloggers.
3. It’s time to tidy up your living space! In what order do you normally tackle things?
It seems like “stuff” piles up on my desk and in the den, so I always hit that first. The bedrooms, kitchen, bathroom and living room are usually kept in good order with an ongoing maintenance plan, so not much to tidy up there.
4. Holy cow! It’s time to start thinking about Christmas shopping! How do approach this annual, sometimes-daunting task?
Some of my shopping is done on Amazon.com, but mostly Hubby and I hit Ala Moana Shopping Center around the first weekend in December to power shop for the holidays. This occurs every weekend leading up to Christmas until we’re done. To be honest, that usually means we’re shopping on Christmas Eve.
5. What’s your method for paying bills?
When I get the bill, I input the payment in my bank’s online bill payer system, then input it in my Excel spreadsheet for my own tracking. I usually try to do it the same day that I receive it in the mail because I’m anal like that.
A 30-something Christian girl, blissfully wedded to her perfect match (the yang to her yin) of 14 years. A new mom to her miracle baby, born on October 4, 2008. Living life in Hawaii, less than 5 miles from her hometown, a slave to her mortgage payment, but seeking balance in her pursuit of family, faith, recreation, and rest.
#5: Hope that I have enough money to cover the checks I write cause I don’t balance my check book. I hate checks with a passion!!
