Weekly Round-up: Training Next Week

Yesterday we went searching for refrigerators to see how much they would cost. After visiting Lowe’s and Home Depot, we visited a friend who’s moving out of country and is selling her fridge.  It was a great deal ($600 and it still had two years warranty left on it), but it was too large to fit in our kitchen.

This coming week I’ll be traveling for some training, so I’ll be light on posting. After training, I’ll go back to my normal schedule with the site.

With training comes some extra assignments, which means some income. Right now, the plan for the extra income is going into savings and buy a refrigerator for the house with cash.
