mo money, mo problems

Lately I've been thinking a lot about what I spend my money on and if there will be enough. See this is the last month I receive a property settlement check from the ex. This money has always been my safety net if i spent too much in a month. So now I have to make it on my own. I'm ready for it, but afraid that it may mean sacrifices. Part of the problem is that I love buying clothes and I'm not ready to give up that vice.

Today in church Radell talked about his service in Bolivia. As he told about the lifestyle there, I couldn't help but think about all the wonderful things I have in my life. How lucky I am to own my home and everything in it.

So I guess the answer to money problems is to spend sometimes in the gratitude journal and realize I have everything I need.

Resolution update: Things are going good with the working out. 6 of the last 7 days I worked out. So far I can't see any results, but maybe i'll see some this week. :)
