Just trying to survive the day....not a great way to live....I feel like my job is trying to kill me...The air conditioning was turned off in my building at 6PM when I was trying to be a good worker and do unpaid overtime....well, I'm over dong that now!

I am looking for ways to save money and find money to pay my bills. I'm not creating new debt now unless it is necessary...I have an aversion to using that credit card now...I am going to stop working overtime and go back to riding the bus....$8 a day to go to work is too much...and I miss my bus! The bus is $2.50 a day. My snowflakes are melting away!!!!!

I feel a slight change in myself....like something is ticking and something is sticking with debt reduction, other focuses of life. Maybe I'm just getting older?

I ate cereal for dinner....had it in the house....no point in going out to buy food when I got home from work ALL FLUSTERED........Spent time with SO and watched TV, talked....very nice....feel better.

I am still avoiding the mall......I have a bunch of new purses I had bought last year and this year and HAVE NOT CARRIED.....I have been using this beat up packpack purse, have not had time to switch purses yet....I think when I switch bags it will be like having new clothes....I have some winter clothes that I bought and never wore....I can probably avoid the mall for a while longer.

I just want to see my numbers go down. I have to be consistent and keep repeating NO to myself more often.

One day at a time, one dollar at a time.........one snowflake at a time....one step at a time.
