The other evening I was out to dinner with my friends, when one of them whipped from her wallet, numerous TJX reward certificates. *In order to receive such joy, one needs to spend $200 to receive a $10 certificate. Anyhow, when she took them out, I remembered that I wanted to check online my credit card statement- for I knew I should be getting some myself. In fact, it had been quite awhile since I remembered that I needed to check my statement and as situation would have it, I forgot again when I got home from dinner.

So imagine my surprise today when the mail came and hubby put the envelope on my desk. Like a new bride, I carefully opened the thick statement and realized how much time had passed since I looked at my account. Now, thankfully, the recent spree isn’t reflected on the statement- because my heart wouldn’t be able to take it. However, after simply eyeing up the multiple certificates, it is safe to say, this brain shit is no joke.
