hi friends and welcome back to a spend the week
with me Vlog! this is a continuation of my last video which I will link below where I go through
all of the money I spent and made during the week as a 34 year old uh social media professional
and finance influencer living in College Station Texas you can check out that video below see
how I spend and make money in my everyday life because I believe in transparent personal finance
so last week's video got a little bit long and it went Monday through Friday so go check that out
and this we're going to spend the weekend with me so here is what I spend on a kind of higher
spend weekend in College Station Texas let's briefly go over my core expenses this is
just for the week as a whole between housing electricity insurance phone subscriptions
I spend 78 dollars and 26 Cents a week and I also save 250 a week for savings and
Investments rolling out to 328 of just normal life expenses every single week
at my day job at Texas A M I make 728 dollars and 63 cents a week and I also have
several side businesses including budget girl my website my short-term vacation rental
the AG wagon Investments Etc et cetera Etc with a broken hearts in me
if I deserve this feeling 30 Saturday so what you guys don't know
about these little idiots is that they wake up every day around 6 A.M and either
Jake or not gets up let's not pee feeds them and then we go back to bed and that is how
we end up waking up to deconstructed shoes another doggy malarkey it's uh about 8 A.M
we need to drop them off at the Doggy Daycare Rory's getting walks brought towards the bougie
money thing that I do one of the best things that I do is you know these two love attention and
play but Rory is a much less social dog and so she gets so many from some walks her she would not
enjoy daycare and these two would not enjoy being stuck all day so we're gonna get dressed we're
gonna go Austin and hopefully have fun too late Stella what are you doing I'm a baby all right where'd it go sit down daycare
how much does daycare usually cost Jacob 30 or so per dog but there's like all the
add-ins you know what did we add in this time bucks uh hopefully they do a nail trim and stuff
too there's the Kong service that's like three bucks per day for dog so I guess it's really
complex so Rory's just 30 bucks and so I guess you could say if it's about 35-ish for a dog 70.
another 12 for the Kong so 82 and then another 30 for the pounds so if it comes out to about 100
120.
Okay that's not bad they're very delicious 30 per dog per day so they have a weekend
minimum so we drop them off Saturday morning and then we pick them up Sunday at like five
uh I guess it'll probably come out to about 170 ish yeah all right still okay they deserve
vacations every day it's very bougie dog stuff and then Rory's is 38 plus a five dollar tip
for the uh for two 15-minute walks and feed it come on foreign quick walk before daycare drop off all right blue bonnet and they take
such good care of the girls here so I was just chattering in
the back she is just talking Tom okay so we hope we'll do a little better with
the group this time she's been socialized a lot um here's their food um just one
per meal yeah one per dog for me they can eat at the same time they don't bust over
food or anything yeah we are grabbing gas for the Austin trip uh Jacob's paying girls are dropped
off at daycare um we love having a Fuji daycare but it costs us even if it costs us 200 to leave
town for eight eight hours plus it's something I do not regret about like getting better with money
and paying off debt and stuff like that I I really like being able to treat my dogs to the life I
think they deserve uh we're probably a step in a Walgreens grab a couple of drinks and get on
the road I don't know why you left me bleeding this feeling I also found these had a Goodwill do you see
them they're Pumas guess how much I paid 7.99 five dollars and that's after I rounded
up I never do that at Goodwill they were on sale they were 7.99 he was cheating made
it to Austin grabbing at this Japanese place Museum s that was really really delicious so no regrets but
it was expensive how much was it 72 72 bucks after a 15 tip Jacob does have leftovers of his own um
really really good though Austin at The Container Store Love The Container Store almost never buy
anything from The Container Store because it's so expensive we are specifically looking for
a new dog food storage thing for Stella's food because her old one broke perhaps we can find
one here and those are really tough to find this would be perfect except
it has cats all over it this is too big they didn't really have any opaque
containers and I do not want dog food in a clear container also everything is so expensive at The
Container Store I know this going in every time and I enjoy looking but I feel like The Container
Store is more of a museum of inspiration than it is a place to spend actual money what do you
think oh my God some of the stuff's expensive it's a lot it's I don't even know if I'd
be comfortable spending money if I was like really wealthy there Maybe we're in downtown
Round Rock at the library for the Mensa event we went to a metal detector already that's for
library books though okay I'll wait for you all right well what do you think of the Austin
Mensa group it was fun but uh they are a great deal older than me yeah I think we were at least
two decades younger than every other person there and we are in our 30s yeah the
closest people to our age were some literal children so yeah they
came in with like a grandparent yeah yeah people were friendly people were friendly
we played several games we did it independently Jacob is trying to revive the Bryan College
Station Mensa but he's faced some pushback there's not a lot of a lot of members there are even less people my age
who are but that's been the issue since you joined at like 16 right that
there was never anyone younger than their 50s at the time so maybe it's just kind
of a Dying organization and I don't know whether that's because they haven't adapted at the times
they haven't recruited new members or they don't new members who are interested
they aren't interested in the people there were lovely but I'm not sure
if we want to come back for another game day I mean it just before I was driving yeah two there two back we're gonna host
one inspiring College Station it's all dark somewhere
yeah yeah it's a social club those are tough sometimes I was in Social Clubs tough even when everyone is on the same page we're gonna go to Ikea Ikea Hall we got two
step trash cans for our bathrooms to Stella we'll quit getting it this lemon and dill sauce
some gummies a pillow cover and a microwave thing 42 I am especially happy about the price of the
trash cans at Target very similar ones were like 40 plus bucks into the Container Store they were
crazy prices too so we've been looking for those for a while so Ikea came and clutch on that um
It's Five O'Clock I don't know what we're gonna do next Jake was very disappointed for the month of
event and this car is parked way too close to us yeah we had um both meals were pretty quick today
all right um total is 47 after tip and we have some leftovers all right officially almost home
uh I have no idea how much I spent today Jacob got lunch I got dinner Jacob got gas I got the stuff
in Ikea what else did we spend right else here we go we went to Goodwill did you get anything a good
one yeah I got the five dollar shoes at Goodwill and the other two Goodwills we went to I didn't
buy anything um and you spent 10 bucks in our admission to the Mensa thing and there's somewhere
else oh we went to Walgreens do we waited okay no I didn't uh we went to World Market and
Jacob actually bought me a dutch oven there so I didn't film while we were shopping because
I was shopping but yeah big day I'll put the totals on screen and hopefully tomorrow
will be less spending but had a good time well you have your home do you help Go Walks
good girl all right I never showed you guys the fit is it today very comfy all right now
we're going to bed and we missed the little dogs I miss the little dog so bad um there are
a lot of puffy energy but I bring so much love oh we'll get them back tomorrow at five happy
Saturday Sunday oh crap it's Sunday Jerry are both slowed down because the dogs are at daycare
little ones and we can't pick them up until five I miss them very much we both had weird bad dreams
he's making breakfast I just got this in the mail I got it off of a Facebook Marketplace somebody
was selling it and it's really cute it was only like 16 bucks so and the original tag from Kohl's
is still on it OG price was 60.
So nice new work dress Jacob made breakfast and some coffee and
it's currently cleaning up the kitchen I am sitting here doing nothing all right I thought
I was just gonna relax today but apparently I am incapable of that so I'm working on the front
bedroom in the house which is also kind of Rory's Sanctuary so she doesn't love the little dogs
climbing all over her so if she comes in here we kind of shut the door too they can get in Hershey
can still get out but she just likes lay in this area and as you can see it's just covered in
dog hair I've got stuff for upcoming brands I keep like camper renovation stuff all this all
this was completely stacked up and covered there's some stuff I'm selling on Poshmark I need to paint
that so I might do that in a second but because this room is usually closed Rory's on the couch
right now uh it doesn't it kind of has become the trash room so working on it a little bit got some
stuff kind of stored better in the closet and I'm trying to figure out if I want to like list some
stuff for sale or paint that or you know clean off that or I but I do enjoy this type of organizing
I am definitely finding some stuff I need to declutter or get rid of which is great this poof
thing I got at a yard sale a long time ago dogs took it over you can't wash it so unfortunately it
is being trashed it just it won't I would have to like get an industrial bring it to a laundromat
to do it and we have tons of dog beds everywhere but yeah this is probably a good way to spend
a little bit of time and it's definitely going to make me feel better to clean out this room
a little bit also there's a bunch of stuff in here from when I went to my dad's old home on the
Gulf Coast and was helping Vincent Beth kind of like cleaning out for around the funeral time they
wanted to make sure I grabbed anything before we put everything up for estate sale so
there's a bunch of little stuff in here that you know like not worth anything
but like I remember this from my childhood and like this is a really pretty little frame
my mom had so little tchotchkes like that that I don't want to just find disappear I got this
table at a yard sale for a couple of bucks and it's very cool very vintage and I was actually
it came rusted already and I actually had was doing like concrete pop projects on this but I
think I'm gonna tape the silver section off and spray paint this give it a quick sand and then
that might make this a little nicer don't get me wrong it's still going to be a project table
but it will be a prettier project table foreign however wow that's been drying between coats
I've been working in here and this is looking a lot better a lot of stuff organized put
away still working on it but Improvement all right the paper piles are gone so much better all right well I got the concrete stuff out this
is looking a lot better painted this I think this looks really nice even sealed it going to get
the puppies I feel about getting the dogs I'm pretty excited have we missed them all day I have
it's been very quiet life's been different Stella would look so cute in this I may try to find one
they uh they know their demographic it's official branded merchandise really yeah easy enough
to find it's got a little thing on it yeah I wonder how much we can find it for elsewhere
I like the leash the leash is very nice that's a Oh I thought it was a dual leash the
girls are coming yeah oh you know babies yeah we became good friends so still come here
thank you yeah thank you oh she smells so good oh did you have fun that was very
sweet of you to tell the lady goodbye how much was it again 142 all right 142 but they
got baths and nail trims right or supposedly nail trims I don't think they got any nail
trims but they definitely got an extra bath they smell very good they're very fluffy they're
very happy Stella cry two more leave Maggie was very happy to I would say Maggie was sufficiently
grateful yeah look how fluffy her voice it's so very fluffy it's a very fluffy voice it
