ME: Maddie, what should you do when Mommy asks you to do something (after I've asked her 5! times!)

Maddie: Do it.

Me: When should you do it?

Maddie: Tuesday?

How to Save More Money

I love reading yahoo news & magazines - informational stuff mostly -

{aside - I know what you're thinking, 'Amber, you're not sticking to your New Year's Resolutions,' I know, get off my back already}

But,sometimes I feel like the articles let me down. Like when I read titles like "How to Lose More Weight," & "How to save More Money," the content is not what I was lead to believe. UGH! So disappointing

So if you can't stand them, join them right? here's my first attempt at some self help articles:

How to Lose Weight
1. Eat less Bacon
2. Do More Exercise

How to Save More Money
1. Stop buying dumb s*#t
2. Leave your money in your bank account

Happy 2011!

My Resolutions for 2011:

1. Start Smoking
It's going to be hard, as I absolutely detest cigarettes, but if I put my mind to it, I know I can do it.

2. Put on about 15 pounds. This is definitely doable, no worries here.

3. Read less.

4. Watch more 'Jersey Shore', '16 & Pregnant', 'Maury Povich', & 'Jerry Springer'.

5. Do more frivalous spending.

ps, Mom, if you're reading this, I'm only teasing, I have absolutely no intention of watching Maury or Jerry.
