An experiment in non-spending…

Well…I did it…I went an entire month without making a non-essential purchase.  It wasn’t easy…there were actually quite a few things that I wanted to buy.  But I stuck to my goal and I made it through the month. I ended up spending more money than I thought I would.  At the beginning of the…

Free Your Mind Monday…

Here we are…at the last set of questions.  And after I answer them I can cross one more thing off my 101 list! 46. What would you do differently if you knew nobody would judge you? Not much.  I don’t much care what other people think of me.  Well…sometimes I care, but I don’t let other…

An impossible task???

One of the tasks on my 101 list is to go one month without making a non-essential purchase.  I included this task for several reasons… I wanted to save some extra money (which is another task on my list) I wanted to examine my spending habits…which have been feeling a little out of control lately…

A New Year’s Update…

One item down…

Friday night, I had some errands to run after work so J agreed to eat fast food for dinner.  I was sitting at the McDonald’s drive-through and I saw the opportunity to fullfil something on my 101 list…I decided that I was going to pay for the person behind me. I had no idea that…

101 in 1001…

I’ve finally done it…a 101 in 1001 list.  I’ve been wanting to start one for a while now, but I’m a procrastinator.  Also…it’s hard to come up with 101 things to put on the list!   It took me about eight months to decide to do it and then another two weeks to actually compile the list. …
