Wow , this game has come a looooong way . <| sep |> The dentist I work for was out of town part of last week for a CE credit class , plus we ' ve been closed part of this week for Thanksgiving . Plus we ' re closed on weekends and most Fridays . So in a span of 17 days from Friday , November 11 th through this Sunday , I ' ll have worked for 4 days . It ' s been great . Gotten time to relax , sleep in , catch up on TV , get some stuff done around the house , sell some stuff on eBay , learn some new stuff , start my Smartly app , and hang out with friends . Life ' s pretty good right now . Also , I think I ' m addicted to Sweet Tarts . <| sep |> Well , sure . Expenses can get ahead of the income to pay them . But that can ' t be the case on an ongoing basis . If you couldn ' t save to fix the roof before it leaked , you ' ll have to figure out how you ' re going to pay the new credit card bill to fix it .
