I have decided that I want an Ipad, but I have to save for it, and it can’t come out of my emergency savings, which is supposed to continue to grow. So I’m cooking more and trying really hard to not go out for lunch or dinner. I’m buying my groceries every two weeks, instead of every week, so I have time to plan recipes and cook some ahead. (salad stuff will be purchased as needed).
Doing this in this fashion will do many things:
1) I will have time to look for deals and decide exactly what I want
2) I will have time to decide I really want it, and that its not a foolish whim, because, hey – I don’t need it to survive, to do my job, so it’s a luxury, not needed.
Queenie and Princess are now no longer afraid and are confident that this is their house and that they are in control – I know this because Princess barked at the bull mastiff that made her freak out when she first came to live with me on Thursday. Queenie wouldn’t let Princess out of her sight, but now lets her run wild all over the house because she knows she’s loved.
