Not only is your pig adorable, but it helps you save up for your RWA goal.

I have great intentions for saving, but you know where good intentions get you. :>/ A visual reminder, given to you by someone you love, will make saving easier. Plus, the pig is cute. <br /><br />Usually I am a major Christmas fan, but this year I also was blah over the holidays. No special reason, just blah. Didn't even get all my decorations up. Must be a writer thing.

The hotel is already booked and anything near Times Sqaure costs a fortune. So, AJ & I will be staying at some roach motel prolly, like the one in the movie BIG. But, at least we'll have stories. <br /><br />I have a pink baby bottle bank from when my tweener was born. Using that. <br /><br />Love the piggy.

Her pink ear is chipped and you can see glue holding her leg on. But I still, to this day, put my spare change in her. I save up for whatever mad-money I need it for. Eye on the Prize is right, D'Ann. Stay the course and you'll arrive on time. Have a great New Years! And this little message is for Kathy: I truly hope 2011 brings you smiles and tears of joy.

I picked it up as a present for my granddaughter. I figured it would be a great way for her to learn about saving money when she got older.

I have my own tax business and during that time of year is when I have extra dollars for things like writers' conferences and stuff. I try to stock up on office supplies and things for my computer. ALways look forward to it. Now this year I am looking forward to using it to survive. With my husband's poor health and stuck living with my sister I hope to use our tax refund to get into our own place. If things keep going downhill my husband may be put on hospice care. He has so much wrong with him. He's been in hospital in ICU since 23 Dec this time.Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05983209367295987926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-133132309124375119.post-2153477492697741092010-12-28T13:38:45.610-05:002010-12-28T13:38:45.610-05:00I love your little piggy.
