Just added $600 to my savings account. I’m the big saver now lol. I’m currently using PayPal savings and Cash App savings as they had the best interest and insured too so no worries there. Cash App is easier to load with cash than PayPal so that’s why I have both. I also realized the other day that since I make more than both my parents combined I should be using that to my advantage and saving every bit I can. And I realize that one day they won’t be here to help me when I need it too so gotta be prepared. I miss the random deodorant and cologne purchases but I like the idea of having money instead plus who really needs to have 52 sticks and sprays deodorants and worry about storing them lol. I’m not going to tell my parents about my savings because they both would get mad that I won’t give them any money just whenever they want lol. I did set out $150 for boots and whatever I don’t use for that I’ll put in savings too. My current boots are from 2022 and killing my feet and heels where they have worn on the inside and outside.

Take good care of your feet and get good fitting ones. Blisters on your heels is bad. And, once you start getting those calluses, spurs, and bunions your days in infantry are done.
Always keep a pair of dry socks. Ever get wet feet from sweat when working in the Summer? Bad for feet.
Watching Two and a Half Men
A fan in my tower (HAF 922) went out. Watched it go from normal to moving an inch at a time and then finally stop. Figured it would be a great time to blow out the case. Took it outside and used the leaf blower!
With care! The fan seemed to spin ok using my finger, but when I tested it, it was just moving an inch again. It's a 200mm and about $28 on Newegg for a similar Coolermaster.

As time goes on money sort of disappears.....nothing better than $$$ to back you up. That eases anxiety...nothing worse than being broke...

Watching Michigan SLAUGHTER Arizona.
I find money, much like life, is a cyclical series of highs and lows.
The key is not getting too excited about either and realizing that being smack dab in the middle is a good place to be...

Up wondering what toiletries AutoMechanic will wear today....
Eleven years ago today I ruined my mother's Easter Sunday morning dinner which she did for the extended family.
The day before I had a heart attack and tried to make it til Monday but Easter Sunday I woke up and couldn't believe it and got up with zero balance.... I started off a chain of family events and nothing but horrible luck.... checking out 11 years ago looking back would have been best... it was a time I wouldn't wish on anyone. AutoMechanic and his drama was worth surviving I'll admit ... Blessings all...

Haha Jimmy boy. Ever smelled or used Davidoff Cool Water? That’s kind of my vibe for the season right now. My Speed Stick Fresh ran out about 4 days ago and I had ChatGPT pick my next deodorant out of my stash and it picked Davidoff Cool Water and I have the matching cologne too. As for other toiletries I’ve got a bar of Duke Cannon Milwaukees Best Beer soap and Ivory soap and Irish Spring soap all in the shower right now and then Old Spice Pure Sport and Head and Shoulders Green Apple shampoo and then I rarely use shower gel/body wash but I did last night and ran out of the current one so opened the cabinet and grabbed some Axe Phoenix to use next. It’s a big pump bottle so probably will last a few years. Still haven’t made a dent in all my stock yet lol.
Also sorry about the fateful day Jimmy boy but we are all glad to have you here with us.
But did Blake wear his white gloves for Easter Sunday?

I’m chilling on the couch drinking a Barq’s Root Beer and listening to the rain fall and hit the roof. I’m ready to go and get on with the day but can’t get certain people motivated around here lol.
Waiting on other people is a poor way to spend one's life, if I can be so bold.
