I’m trying to develop better relationship with money… and
food, and people and my family.
The more I think about I think I need to work on the whole
concept of ‘relationship’ but for now I’ll work on the money one because money
doesn’t change. But I can start with money
since it’s been pretty consistent over the course of all time and history.
I haven’t done a good grocery shopping trip in sometime and
it’s starting to show. My freezer is
bare and I’m dong mini power shopping trips where I’m hungry, don’t have coupons or a
plan and I spend over $20 for that night’s dinner and the lunch for the day
after. This happened last night. My $6
salad, $3 cheese and $4 mega brownie hit the spot and my $7 salad today
and $4 soup for lunch today. I will be
ok until around 2 today where I feel the need to repeat the cycle. Money fail.
I've been using mint.com for about a year to track my spending and it's been VERY useful... to a point. I know that I overspent on my food budget (entertainment budget, coffee store budget, etc) a day or two afterwards. I think I need an app that causes my phone to have a temper tantrum at check out before I go over board.
It’s 3:30 in the morning.
I woke up because I was having a dream about my last relationship (with
a human). Another fail.
