It's too easy to get lazy and spend considerably more than needs to be spent. I'm so glad I got this week planned out. Now I just need to stick to the plan.

I post it for accountability but I imagine people are like, "gah, this is burning my eyeballs."<br /><br />HAPPY ANNIVERSARY you two! (Need day trip update please)<br />Ours is coming up here soon too :)<br /><br />So, I virtually never buy clothes for myself. I have ONE pair of pants that fit right now and its a pair of blue jeans that have fairly large holes worn into both knees. Needless to say my wardrobe is not practical for many situations. I've been putting it off getting new jeans for far too long (hoping to lose 50 pounds so I can't fit into all my pre-pregnancy clothes (and wearing a pair of black maternity corduroys if I need to go anywhere half nice)). Yeah, I haven't been pregnant for over three years so I don't think I should be wearing maternity clothing for any reason. I also hate clothes shopping, SO MUCH! At this point I have some very, very old clothing in my limited wardrobe and honestly I am just fine with that BUT I really need new jeans that fit. Ahhhhh, life; haha!rivulethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11352395562904461909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5375475720350356941.post-7591899470991312812015-08-09T19:39:44.851-04:002015-08-09T19:39:44.851-04:00How is that boring????

I LOVE working with budgets - you should see me on Ted's payday - he was home this year because he took the day off since it was our anniversary and I said "Oh, good, now you can work out the budget with me".....I was ecstatic, he was less than thrilled :)<br /><br />Keep it up - you are doing fantastic!!! I'll tell you one thing, ever since I "retired", I have MAYBE spent $20 TOTAL on clothes (and it has been 5 years) - I wear my raggedy old clothes around the house and save my nice jeans/capris for when I go out so they last forever. I'm lucky in that respect I am DEFINITELY not a clothes horse, plus I absolutely HATE clothes shopping....well shopping for anything really!ibesuenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5375475720350356941.post-2168022460320125762015-08-09T18:33:35.290-04:002015-08-09T18:33:35.290-04:00Not bad !
