My hubs finally gave me a budget sheet. So I could SEE the expenses. He says it's 10k a month, and we are struggling after I lost my job, he says all I need is a 40K job and we will be fine. I don't want to be FINE. I want to be able to live life on terms I set instead of the check box terms we seem to be stuck in. So, the sky isn't the limit here, it's the starting point.

my future me will thank me for the oodles of savings I have in case of emergencies!

craft supplies...but i have only been buying supplies at the Deals for Days Stores (except for that one time at Dollar Tree) on Thursdays, when the cost is $2 per item. Are the Fridays with @10 per item cooler and have awesome things, yes, BUT I don't need that kind of stress "what if it's available on Tuesday" running through my head

@Rachael S hm. not going every Tuesday? Like, only go once a month!

i always put what bills are given into my calendar so that i know what money is already committed

I'm have a suggestion, remove the mountains from behind the castle and then the castle shows up better?!
