Stimulus minus $79.79

OK, I went for the fun part first. So I have spent $79.79 total. After much searching the net and googling MP3 players good for audio books I found this. The Creative 2GB MuVo V100 MP3 Player, in Pink & the Belkin Tunecast II so I can listen in the car. I only listen to audio books in the car. I do not listen to music unless I do not have a book. I do not jog or go to the gym. After talking to people and reading the most important feature I needed was that the player keep my place in the book when I stopped. I started with comments I found that recommended this player then went to this site. That is how I found out about the Belkin as that had to be part of the package. I then went to this site for a review. I'll try it and if it does not meet my requirements for the books it will be an easy return to any Walmart. Since I listen in the car the Tunecast was most important. I was working backward in my search so I could find the right item to listen in the car. So that should be a keeper. I'll post a review when I get it and play with it.

Forever 9 to Five

I have just finished! I have been decreasing the toe for two days now! At the same time I realize that in just a few rows I will have nothing OTN! So I am going to figure that one out and pull all my felted bags out and start finishing them! I received my stimulus check on Friday. Here is a list of things I need to do with it, plus things I want to get
  1. Get a MRI $150

  2. Pay off Best Buy card $300

  3. Get a new cell phone--free but I then need to get extra chargers. $30

  4. Get a Blackberry for $49 and spend too much a month for bells & whistles I do not need.

  5. MP3 Player to download audio books from the public library and save some money buying them. Need to learn and better understanding how that works.

  6. Really want and Ipod

  7. Need sundries; paper towels, TP, Brita water filters; --trip to COSTCO-that a good $100

  8. Savings

I don't know how to cross out copy in blogger so I know that I am doing 1, 2, 7 & 8 for sure.

I have decided to join. Whiskers on Wednesday . Check it out. They are having a shout out contest!

I sure wish I could come out smaller!
