I swear I am not making plans any more. Today I was looking at my finances and planning out how I could save some money for some expenses I know that I will have coming in March. Well I had it all planned out and I have even been really diligent about not going over my budget for Christmas this year. Then today happens.
I get a speeding ticket and I am less than a mile from my house going 44 in a 30. I have lived in Arkansas for 9 years now and have never been pulled over before. And of course I have no idea how much the ticket will be because they don't write that on them here. At least in Oklahoma they let you know how much it is. And by the way this is only the 2nd ticket I have ever gotten in my life.
Then I get home and have a letter in the mail from a collection agency saying I owe $94 dollars to this company that I have never even seen a bill from and I don't use their service.
AHHHHHH!! It is so frustrating! Anytime I decide to save money it always seems something stupid comes up. I think what makes me the most upset is I have no one to blame but myself. I know what the speed limit is I drive that road at least 4 times a day.
The bright side is that my third graders did amazing on their program today and I know they will be adorable tonight. Plus afterward I get to hang out with a good friend of mine I haven't seen for a while so there is a happy ending to all of this craziness.
