Bummed about my budget
So I was so excited that I started a blog that I decided to share it with my family. Well everyone, EXCEPT my dad thought $30 a day was a little too much and I was out of reach with reality. So now I am trying to figure out a reasonable amount of money to use on a daily basis. Anywho, this is going to be alot more difficult than I thought, but as of right now I have spent no money today, but then again I have not left my house. I have also decided that spending money comes out of boredom, therefore, I am going to have to find free hobbies. So today, I have watched Adventureland 3 times, have started watching Mad Men, and jogged around my neighborhood with Cosby. When I finish my Mad Men episodes, I just dont know what I will do. I will start researching hobbies. Also a very important first priority is finding a job. Ok so enough blogging for today. I am off to Austin's and am anxious to see if I stay within my allotted budget!
Quest to become frugal!!
I am probably the least technologically savvy person amongst my age group, but I wanted to start a blog so I'm giving it my best shot! My dad and I had a really log conversation last night for the millionth time about how much money I spend. I know its killing him and for some reason I have this problem where I just use the credit card ALL the time. So this blogging experience is a mission of one careless spender turning into a prudent, thrifty girl! This will definitely be hard, but if I keep up with my blogging, I feel like I could become one wise spender. Also, I need a job.
So today, I plan on spending a maximum of $20. Maybe thats a little unreasonable. It is 8 am and I cannot think of why I would need to spend more than $20 today. Ekkk ok maybe I'll increase it to $30 because I am going to Clarksville with Austin tonight.
Also, I am going to freeze my mastercard. I froze my American Express one time and it worked splendidly, until I had to move home and it melted!
