What are you doing right now?

We are eating and soon going to the women’s college basketball game today. Surprised they would have one on New Year’s Day. They had a men’s game yesterday which they played the biggest rival and won in three overtime’s.

Mom is convinced she’s going to get a car today before the game but I just don’t see it happening on the terms she wants. I’m not going to say anything though because she’s been on a rampage all morning and going off so me and dad are tired of hearing it and arguing so we are stepping back at this point. She’s living in a dream if she thinks she can get $200-$300 payments on something that expensive in this day and age especially with interest and no down payment or trade in. She said if she decides to trade in her Camry then she won’t accept less than $15,000 for it which I also don’t see happening either for a now 9 year old Camry.

Find a GF that will move in with you and your folks and make her pay rent. That will help your Mom get a RAV4.

I’m also figuring out when all my cards are due this month too. One of them do before payday so have to get on that one asap. My advice to anyone who will listen is don’t sign up for 6 or 7 credit cards and not be able to pay them back because I struggle to pay them back sometimes and interest is killing me.

Don't be late on credit card payments as that will ding your credit score.

Just left the basketball game. We led up until the end then went to overtime for the tie and then blew the game.

My advice to anyone who will listen is don’t sign up for 6 or 7 credit cards and not be able to pay them back because I struggle to pay them back sometimes and interest is killing me. My total limit is $6,200. At least one is only 3% interest through my credit union who also financed my car, the rest are in the 20%s and 30%s. I wanted to consolidate to one payment but the only loans I can get approved for either need a cosigner or are very predatory and want over 100% interest. I make good money but time you pay all your bills that money slowly fades away.

Just sayin... Then pay off the highest one first in descending order.

Just chilling. Got the bathroom cabinet all organized yesterday so hopefully it will stay organized. Done lots of DoorDash last night and made about $75 so that was good. Tomorrow we are going to do it during football times because there’s extra incentives and super busy.
 
Doing DoorDash orders. Actually just delivered to a friend which was cool. Got to help another friend with some curtains later. Mom is having a bad day because they sold the RAV4 she really wanted to get. I hope she is able to get something eventually.
 
Feeling like crying... was reviewing my Fidelity account but was confused by why it said I could put $8,600 this year into a Roth. The limit's $7,500. What the heck? Programming issue?

Oh... this is the year I get to be on the wrong side of 50. :( I think I need to find a quiet place now.

She said earlier if she doesn’t get one she’s going to take mine and do something to it so I can’t have it. I’m like well if you do then you’re going to get yourself in trouble because at that point that’s serious. She probably doesn’t mean it but she’s very mopey right now and won’t talk to me or dad at all she’s just sitting there in silence with tears. I feel bad cause I know she wants it but she’s not acting like an adult.

Wow that's crazy....
Sounds like a tantrum to get her way.
In our house she'd just have to get over it. Inexcusable.... good luck with the drama...
