Day 2 of my 4 day weekend.  It’s going alright.  Beth works today, so I’m home alone.  That means I get to clean up the place.  Not all bad.  I’m working on organizing stuff as well.

One of the things I was “organizing” is my iTunes music.  I realized (again) how much I have and how much I hardly ever (or never) listen to.  Alot of it I got for free as sampler packs from iTunes.  Others are CD’s that I haven’t listened to in a long time, etc.  So I was thinking about going through and deleting some of it.  Freeing up space on my HD, and not having my playlist be full of songs I never listen to.  I might get to that later.

I’m also working on consolidating our student loans.  I’m sure it might have been in the fine print, but we have a fair number of them that cannot be consolidated.  That’s a little disappointing.  But I think we can get some of our payments down, which will help. The bank suggested we do that as it would help us with our home loan.  Those places that claim “$300,000 mortage for under $800/month” have to be out of their minds.  I don’t quite know how they work, but they can’t be very good.  Crazy lenders.

I should go to the bank in a bit.  I’ll wait til after the lunch rush.  Time to put some money in the checking account.  It’s almost bill pay time of the month.  Everyone loves that time!

I also saw the kick off of the Aquatennial on the news this morning. Maybe we’ll have to go down there for it.  It seems like it would be fun, and we’ve never been.

Happy Friday!
