    Default The Year of Living Frugally - Week 7

    Hi Everyone,

    I've been busy. So busy that I have backslid a bit with the lunch-buying.

    Also so busy that I haven't really written anything related to frugal living or debt management - except that the debt-managing is on hold.

    I'm just trying to not impulse-buy anything until I make it to the end of the month and can update my budget - and then I should be past the money-spending cravings.

    Cheers,
    sumdumsurfer

    p.s. in a shameless act of self-promotion, I will tell you that I have posted a week 7 on my blog

    Hey Buddy, The BUDGET is the BOSS of the money! LOL!

    I know, I know, I spent money and bought all the DieHard movies and Enchanted as well as I AM Legend.....even though it was with my allowance but I wanted money that for our vacation fund.

    Everyone slides and then you just get back on the wagon.
    The math never lies, budget in INK!

    Amount of Free items 2012 $391.33


    Debt #2 12/31/12 CC $901.88
    Debt #3 12/31/12 $3648.83

    Madness, mayhem chaos...my work here is done!

    Sumdumsurfer, I'd like to say I'm disappointed but I can't because you have been more honest and forthcoming during your first 6 weeks of posting than I in the year I've been lurking and then slowly posting at this site.

    The important thing is to not lose sight of where you want to be, not where you are or where you have been, but where you will be. You seem to have an excellent grasp of that.

    Keep posting, I've come to enjoy your honest posts from someone who can dictate their own life and how to spend it.
