Debt Quote Tuesday

The greatest inhibitor to economic growth is debt.
-I heard someone say that on the radio yesterday

Debt is bad!

I didn't exactly stick to the plan this week. The plan was to spend $11.09 under the $12 a day budget in order to make up for half of last weeks overage. I'm going to have to blame the "failure to stick to the plan" on a moment of weakness and splurge on Jets pizza. I just can't say no to Jets and we had a coupon.

However, there is only one day left in our financial week and I still have cash left in the envelope. It looks like I will at least stick to budget. I'm certainly not going to complain about that. I may have missed the mark with week one of 2012 but week two is looking good! AND I didn't buy any Cadbury eggs today. That's a tiny accomplishment in itself <smiles>

Today's Lovely: Crystal twigs. The snow began to melt, it started to rain, then it froze, and began snowing again. Every branch, every stick, every twig is coated in white crystal brilliance!
