Krystal at Give Me Back My Five Bucks has tagged me for the latest meme going around. This is my first one so I am a little excited. :-D

Here we go:

  1. I don't eat red meat. Haven't in 12 years.
  2. I am the first in my family to graduate from high school, go to college, and earn a degree.
  3. I love okra.
  4. I have one tattoo. Its on my right thigh.
  5. I have never thrown up or blacked out from drinking (heavy drinking).
  6. My favorites shoe brands are Sketchers and K-Swiss.
  7. I never studied in high school but still graduated with a 4.3 out of 4.0 GPA.
  8. I have an excellent memory when it comes to numbers but I am horrible with names.
Now here are the following folks I am tagging:

D.C. 2 @ Challenging Debt

Rad @ Daddy Financials

Ms. Voad @ V.O.A.D (value of a dolla)

and finally

Single Guy Money @ SingleGuyMoney

I tried giving up the read meat girl, it just wasn't happening :)
I've though about getting a tatoo of Atlas on my back (the world is on my shoulders) but I have to look into it more.

Thanks for the tag, I got you.

Home Purchase Plan - How I faired

Back in January I developed my Home Purchase Plan (HPP for short). I listed exactly what I was looking for in my new home including my needs and wants. I printed up my HPP and carried it will me everywhere. I especially took it with me when I went house hunting with my agent.

I also listed a number of ways I keep my grocery budget so low. Today I did some grocery shopping for meat and some other misc items. Here is what I bought: - 2 packages of chicken breasts - 2 packages of drumsticks - 2 whole hens - 2 packages of chicken wings - 1 bag of roma tomatoes - 1 bag of onions - 1 bag of organic baby carrots - 2 gallons of water (not shown) - 1 bottle of bbq sauce Total = $24.90 One big way to save on groceries each month is to package the food you buy into servings sizes. Your serving size depends on how many people are in your family. I separate out my sizes based on how much food my daughter and I consume in one meal.
