Broke but the bills are getting paid.

November 17th, 2007 at 07:25 pm

Okay I stuck to my budget this week and now I'm broke. LOL.

I know things have to be tight in order to get caught up we have to tighten our belts. It just sucks.
I keep telling myself it's only a couple of months and then at least we'll be caught up and things won't be so rough. I just don't like it when hubby gives me a look when I say no we don't have the money to go out to eat or whatever. He's being good about it, but I can tell he doesn't care for it so much.
My feeling is I want to be able to get everything paid up and then down so we don't have to worry about our futures. I don't want to be one of those old ladies who have to eat tomato soup because I didn't have the money to pay the electric bill.
Okay I think I've whined enough. I'm proud of myself for sticking to my budget and my guns about not spending money. So...go me!!

    Good for you that you stuck to your budget! I hate it when I run out of money at the end of the week. That is normally when temptation kicks in and I am at my weakest. I find it hard to say no to anyone, including myself, when there is a want. I think that is my biggest downfall when it comes to sticking with a budget. So, give yourself a pat on the back...you deserve it Smile

    It sucks, I agree, but if you can hang on and not spend for at least one day longer, you'll learn a lot and become more confident in not throwing money at a problem. Its like exercise - feel the frugal burn!
