Even in this short time, I can see things starting to look up for me financially....it may only be in small amounts, but they are steps in the right direction.

Yesterday I used my new prescription plan from the new job...I was SO HAPPY because the same purchase I made last month cost me $100 less this month!!! I had suspected the drugs would cost less, and I budgeted for that, but when the total was even less that I budgeted for, I immediately snowflaked the money...paid on my car repair bill which is shrinking more and more! Hurray!!!!! (I didn't want to get any other spending ideas which is why I snowflaked it right away.)

I can see that taking the bus to work and bringing my own breakfast is saving me a couple bucks a week, so I am happy with that. I am just so happy that I am seeing some progress even if it is small right now. I am making changes slowly, but at least they are being made.

Well, gotta go now to cut coupons for the weekend grocery trip!

That is quite a savings! I thought I paid a lot for prescriptions, $60 per month, but it sounds like you've got a bigger budget item for that than I do.

That is soooo awesome!!! Kudos to you! It's the little steps that get you where you need to go! I need to remember that idea myself.
