Not boasting, but I'm actually ahead of the game sm

We changed our lifestyle quite a bit over the last year. We just built a new house out in the country, so we are not ordering in as much. I actually make a menu for the week and buy groceries for that menu. I plan my meals ahead of time, but we still allow ourselves the luxury of eating out, usually once on the weekends. We were very fortunate to be able to budget for a geothermal heat pump, so heat bills! YEAH!!!! Because we went with the full geothermal (not just a regular heat pump), our light bill didn't go up that much either.

I have 3 kids and they are all elementary age and play lots of sports. They're all playing baseball, and the parents were given the option to either work the concession stand 1 game per child per season or pay $20. Needless to say, I'm working the concession stand for 3 games and saving that $60.

I also took on a part-time job in direct sales. It has been a Godsend. Not only do I get out a couple of nights a week with other ladies to have a good time, but I also get paid to do it. I make about $200 a night for about 4 hours of work, although it doesn't feel like work. I'm also on my way to earning a free vacation for next year through this company. This year, we're headed to Disney with the money I've made so far from direct sales.

I knew I needed to make a little extra income. I work part-time for an MTSO now about 6 hours a day, and the money is good, but I wanted a little for the extras. This direct sales thing was right up my alley. I don't know how long it will last in this economy, but I intend to "ride the wave" as long as I can.
