One whole month of NO SHOPPING! It helped that we had NO MONEY, so there was no incentive to shop. It also helped that it was TOO DANG COLD to even get out of bed, much less get out of the house, but I did manage to sub two days in a row. Woo-hoo! That'll be a whopping $100 I'll get at the end of February.



I'm having to re-think some things about money. Like: why isn't there ever enough? And: where did it all go last month, when I wasn't spending any? Also: Does anybody ever get a raise anymore? It seems to me, if you're doing an incredible job in the midst of this recession, you should get SOMETHING in the way of recognition from your boss. I'm hoping it will eventually be a move back to Texas....all expenses paid.



So for now I'll bite my tongue and prepare to sit in the house for another month.
