Show Me the Money
I was so acutely excited this afternoon at work that I almost jumped out of my desk chair and started screaming, ala Cuba Gooding, Jr. in Jerry Maguire.
I was checking my gmail account and saw an e-mail from our mortgage company. I am signed up to receive e-statements from them, as I far prefer paying bills online (I can never finds stamps). The e-mail said, "Congratulations. We have reviewed your account and your account has been paid in full. We are de-enrolling you in our e-alerts program."
I knew we were trying to pay off the mortgage, and I knew the check we got from our flood insurance was sufficient to satisfy the balance. But our mortgage company has been so difficult to deal with that I was convinced they would do anything in their power to keep us from paying off this loan, even if it didn't benefit them. But I was wrong! So wrong!
WE PAID OFF OUR MORTGAGE! One year and a half after we went to closing! Paid! Off! Done!
Suze Orman would be so proud of us.
In other, less exciting news, I went to Atlanta this week. Although I managed to squeak through the holidays without re-gaining all of the weight I lost, I think I gained at least 10 pounds while in the great state of Georgia. I swear I ate my way through that city. I had a phenomenal client dinner at this restaurant, which I highly recommend. Even the food we had brought in for the meeting itself was tasty.
The only glitch in the trip was my forgetfulness. Every time I take a trip somewhere, I forget to bring something. Usually it's something like a hair dryer or a razor -- something the hotel supplies. This time, it was deoderant. I can make do without a lot of things, but deoderant is a deal-breaker. And not so much for me, but for the poor people who have to sit next to me.
Naturally, I didn't realize that it was mising until the morning of the meeting, when I needed to put it on. I called the front desk and they assured me they could bring me a replacement. I would oh-so-grateful, got dressed and waited.
They brought me Speed Stick.
That stuff stinks. I was running late, so I threw it in my purse and ran to my meeting. When I got there I ducked into the bathroom and debated whether it was worse to smell like Speed Stick or like sweaty girl. I went with a swipe of men's deoderant under each arm and a lot of self-confidence. No one was edging away from me during the meeting, so, you know, mission accomplished.

Congrats on paying off the house. Don't think I'll ever know that feeling.
