Well, I guess I am having a good Ides of March.....all the insurance payments I was waiting for came in all at the same time, and so I am able to pay back all the credit card charges I had to do, and I am so happy! The totals look better, at least they look the way they did before I had to charge all that medical/vision/dental stuff! Now I feel like I'll be able to start seeing some improvements in the totals. What a relief!
I am still doing okay with not spending...I'm more excited about paying off one of the credit cards! I think it will happen in the next month! Can't wait!
So tired....I have to work this weekend....not happy about that. I don't get paid extra for it. It's a bummer.
I have to deal with craft store temptation this weekend. A good friend wants to go to a craft class, and she's been so depressed that I am trying to be suportive and spend time with her......I've decided to bring cash, and leave the credit cards home, and that will be FINE and safer. I am so motivated to get the credit card paid off, and I just CAN'T stand the thought of seeing the balance grow............
I have been falling asleep when I sit on the sofa at night rather than cleaning....so going to give myself another chance tonight....it is little by little anyway. But, as usual, being aware of all the stuf I have is helping quell the spending urge. This morning I found a nother drawer stuffed with beauty and health products I forgot about...so much STUFF!!!!!!.......shopping not needed. Really, I just enjoy going to the grocery store right now......
Have a great evening! Littlesbigs
PS..........spring is coming!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well I certainly hope you can "see" improvements if you had to charge vision stuff! :)
Hope you have a great weekend and avoid the craft store.
All my best,
Danni
Hi, Danni!
No, Can't avoid the craft store since that is where the class is, but I am going to force myself to keep spending to a minimum like just the class materials and nothing else..... There are also dinners and gift giving to do in the upcoming weeks (and Easter.....) so I am just going to hold onto my money as hard as I can.........I'll be saving and budgeting just for that.
Oh, yeah, I know that feeling of wanting something RIGHT NOW and then finding that bag it is still in......oh, yes.....50% of the stuff in the house is THAT! Still in the bags!
I am going to continue on this new path for me and see how it goes. At least it is not boring for me!
Happy St. Patrick's Day! Littlesbigs
