The Beginning of a New Week!

Here's another Monday morning. The beginning of a new week and another challenge of not fritting away the money I work so hard for. Because I had been sooo good for the last 2 months, I allowed myself some sanity money. It was really enjoyable having some money in my purse that I didn't need to justify. I still have most of that money just because it's hard to get out of the routine of not spending. I also view spending quite differently now. My husband took me out on Saturday night (out of his allowance) which was truly wonderful. And tonight he's taking me to the movies. I must be being rewarded for my mammoth efforts!

Last night I bought home a bottle of champagne ($cheap, but very nice, was on special) as our daughter had cooked a candle light dinner for Valentine's Day. (We don't actually celebrate Valentine's Day, but when people are just doing out of the love of their heart rather than the commercialised "YOU MUST", it's really lovely and feels very special.

With regard to the 6 extra shifts I needed to work this month to be on track for the Borneo payment at the end of March, I have worked 2, just 4 more to go. I am starting to feel liberated of the stress of money and must haves. I like how I feel and find that the more positive my attitude to money the more I seem to have!

Today's baking day. Loaves of bread, biscuits, goodies :)) Also get the house in order ready for the rest of the week!

Happy Making & Saving!
