Sabrina’s Money Madness

My insurance company is acting crazy and I’m gearing up for a fight. My Mom passed away earlier this month and she left behind several small policies. One policy is still in the “contestable” stage so the insurance company is doing everything in their power to not pay out the policy. Never-mind that it’s a […]

It’s only a small amount, $641.00, but I am so far off of that number that it’s ridiculous. I had an emergency funeral and I blew through a ton of cash paying for expenses for that. I will be able to recoup some of my expenses once the insurance money comes through but that won’t […]

It’s not really ideal for me because I don’t want to lose and/or change my benefits but I really feel like it’s time to move on. I’m not looking anywhere particular but I have to admit that healthcare jobs pique my interest. Right now, I’m looking for a job that I can grow in that will […]

I have one coworker that I go to lunch with everyday. We don’t have any set place that we like to go. We just pick randomly each day. Some days it depends on what we want to eat, other days we just pick the closest location to where we work.
Today my coworker is ill so […]

I’m really not ready to talk about it but I had a death in the family and had to go out of town for a while. Since my family doesn’t have internet access (the horror!), I was unable to blog or really use the internet for over two weeks.
Now I’m back and slowly starting to […]

Whew! I was kinda worried that she wouldn’t like it. Teenagers can be finicky and I wasn’t sure what she would think. My friends said that I’m being too accommodating but this phone is a gift and I don’t want to spend my hard earned money and then she not like the phone. That would […]

My doctors office called me the other day to tell me that my new contact lenses were in. I was pretty excited as I made plans to go pick them up. I got there and it was only 1 trial pair. My prescription changed slightly so she only ordered one pair that I have to wear for a week and then […]

That was really fast. They’ve actually been in for a couple of days now. I just haven’t made the appointment to go back to the doctors office and pick them up. I was surprised that they came in so quick though. I thought that because I went a few days before Thanksgiving that it would take a […]

My quarterly goal is $641.75 for savings and $20 for debt repayment. I can pay it or save it all at one time or pay something every month. It just depends on how my money comes in each month. Because of the way that I have my budget set up, there will be one month […]

November was a pretty good month. I won some great stuff just in time for the holidays so I can give a couple of nice gifts this year.

1 set of MegaMind movie tickets from a Facebook giveaway. I’m really going to enjoy this prize.
$100 GC for Ebay. I really didn’t even expect to actually win this. It […]

I am so glad to see my friend retire after 35 years of service to our company. She was one of the first people that I met when I started in this area and she has always been a wonderful person to be around. It’s extremely sad to see her go though. I’ll probably have to figure out how to […]
