Hi Mommies,

I'd like to know. What would you do with $500.00 a
month if you actually made the moolah?

Let me hear it Ladies!

DeeDee · 06-06-2007, 10:17 PM

Well I would buy a lot of yarn for knitting.
Pay bills, and use some for our weekends at the cottage. Not very exciting is it?

Polly · 06-07-2007, 05:40 AM

Oh DeeDee that sounds good to me especially the cottage part. Well I would be able to work only part time instead of full time,

. Now if it were an extra $500 a month, well, I don't know what I would do with it. Save up for some really loooong vacations! I want to go somewhere and be lazy for a whole week, I want spa treatments, waited on hand and foot and I want to be on the beach! I love to walk the beach and collect seashells. Kind of can't do that where I live. also I just got a metal detector and I've heard you can really find stuff on beaches,

. Ok enough of this loooooooooong answer.

Definetey buy yarn so I can knit some of the sweaters that I have only partial yarn for.....

Take my girls on weekend trips.
Right now I would ne happy with $500.oo a month as my job ends on ther 18 and I don't get paid summers

Polly, we have a metal detector and just start going around your own yard you will be surprised at the things you might find.

Kathleen,

to hear about your job ending. I hope things work out for you.

Polly · 06-07-2007, 09:03 PM

DeeDee, I did do that a couple of times when I first got it but only to get the feel of it. I will definitley get started with that. I also take it to camp with me. The first weekend I found an old horse harness clasp and some old water lines,

. Last time we went to camp we had so much company I didn't get time to use it so I will hopefully get to play this weekend. I need to get a good shovel. I also hope to get to do some fishing. Got my fishing license last time we were up there but again too much company to go fishing, but thats ok, I love getting company and I have all summer to go fishing. We went up to the little dam in our town last sat. and did some fishing. Didn't catch anything but had fun. I don't care if I catch anything or not, just like going through the motions except touching the slimy dirty worms,

!!

Dee Dee
Thanks! I work only for the school year so I always know it is coming But I still wish I made 500.00 a month take home

DeeDee · 06-08-2007, 09:28 PM

Polly we want to take the detector around to hubby's fathers old homestead. I imagine we might find a lot of old things there. It was a camp for the loggers at one time and his grandparents boarded them. So who knows what could be there. The bugs are just too bad right now so maybe more towards fall we will do that.
I love fishing too but haven't done it in a while.

Kathleen, you are

. I wish we could all have an extra $500 a month to do whatever we wanted with.

$500 a month. Pay bills and spend some on me for a change. I would go and buy me some of those new clothes called Bitten from Sarah Jessica Parker, they are size 2 to size 22 and very stylish. They are also under $20

what a party I would have

.

DeeDee · 06-11-2007, 11:22 PM

Awww Luz I sure wish I could make that happen for you. Sound like nice clothes.

demascot · 07-11-2007, 06:13 PM

I'd go on lots of vacations with my family. Some small weekend trips and then a couple doozies!

Juliejamron · 08-16-2007, 06:14 PM

I would pay more on my credit card debt

keeverman · 08-16-2007, 07:33 PM

Well, if it were extra income and not necessary to pay bills then I would use a portion of it to put into savings for my children, another portion would go to my church and the remainder would go into a family savings for emergencies and/or vacations, etc.

lmcrow · 08-16-2007, 07:49 PM

I live in South Carolina and the way the heat has been here the last couple of weeks, I'd pay our electric bill !!!!
