HELP!!!!

Clink, clink, clink, clink, clink. That would be the sound of a quarter hitting the bottom of the swear jar.  Needless to say, I have not been doing a very good job on cleaning up my mouth.  This is proving much harder than I thought.  Not that I thought it would be easy!

I was talking with a fellow teacher after school this week, and we were talking about what we have been doing well and things that we need to work on.  When we were done, we were just shooting the s*** (clink), and I told her about my blog and how I am trying to reflect on what I have been doing well and what I need to work on.  I also told her about trying to clean up my mouth.  She was hilarious in the fact that she rolled her eyes and gave me a look that said, "About time!"  But she also gave me a good idea, a swear jar.  Every time I swear I have to put a quarter in the jar.  So I think I am going to run with it!

HOWEVER, I have absolutely no idea what to do with the money that goes into the jar.  That is what I need help with.  Any ideas????

  2. Sounds like by the time baby comes you'll have plenty saved up, so use it to treat you and your wife to a night out when one of the rents wants to babysit. You'll both need it and if your mouth is cleaned up by baby time, you are in really good shape :-)

  6. Having a child makes a huge impact bro. I had been trying to quit smoking for years and always failed... when she was born, I never smoked again, cleaned up my mouth, and quit drinking within a couple years. Those little bundles of joy have a profound affect upon our decisions, just wait and see :)
    As for the money... my birthday is in July
