It's my birthday in 3 days! Celebrating another great month of gains & a positive year overall. Cheers to more of the same.
I can't recall if I mentioned it earlier, but I was to receive a settlement from work. Yesterday I checked my mail (I only check it once a week) and I found the check in the mail. It's a nice time of year to receive some unexpected money! I'm not doing anything with it specifically, other than making sure my debt is paid off.
My sister already sent some things the kids wanted for Christmas so I did my Black Friday shopping early. That was my only Black Friday shopping, actually. I don't plan to do much shopping at all as I already shop all year long.
Today is Giving Tuesday so I am donating to my alumni association.
Happy Holidays!
I am 48, single, no kids. I am a health care professional. I feel that I'm generally a very good saver and a not so good budgeter - hence the credit card debt payoff I worked through in 2020.

Thank you for the Giving Tuesday reminder. My go to charity is Donors Choose and they have matching on all donations today so I was able to make my donation go further!
