Finally, I am happy after a lousy work week.....I treated myself to some craft stuff (which I should not have done, but this was that bad this week)....BUT I did NOT charge it, and that is a good thing!!!!! My job has been HORRIBLE....the headhunters are calling...but I think that I can stick it out now. I solved the mystery of why it was so difficult to cope with the junk flying at me from the project, and I actually HELPED PEOPLE this week which made me feel great before the day ended.

And now I am thinking I can attack and conquer the debt thing now, too.

I am trying to change some old habits....I was always giving,giving, giving , and now I am rethinking it, and I am finding I am happier doing less of it......someone was asking me to take them out, and in the past I would have just done it, but NOW I am suggesting we can go out but somewhere cheaper and I'm not buyng carloads of gifts for them, and really, the relationship hasn't chnaged for the worst....so I am over that. This is a big deal for me.

Tomorrow I am going for the annual long drive to look at the leaves, and I am PACKING SANDWICHES....I can't believe it.......I DON'T need a restaurant meal.........

I am keeping lights off, thinking twice about cetain spending, trying to conserve certain things......trying to be happy with what I already have........finding new inexpensive interests...........

For me, debt reduction is going to be a holistic thing.....that's fine.

Have a great weekend!
