Well I am doing really well with this challenge here is what I bought this week:
$15 worth of goods from wal-mart
$50 worth of groceries
$30 book for school
For a grand total of $95. Which means I am $25 over budget. I totally did not anticipate needing to buy another book for school, BUT I was able to offset it by an almost equal amount from ebates. Yup this month I got a $30 deposit into my bank account from ebates. So tomorrow I will put $10 worth of gas in my tank and I shall remain right on schedule. YAY!
I think next week will go so much better since I had to buy a lot of non-food stuffs like detergent ($6), vitamins ($6), conditioner ($6) and tissue ($10).
So my health is going down the proverbial toilet. This week I have a new symptom which I have mixed emotions about. It came on very suddenly and it’s just getting worse. I am happy that this symptom appeared as it might be the symptom I need to get my questions answered…but I really wish it hadn’t… I’m not going to go into any details until I find hope/a doctor/an answer/something. The exact symptom is a topic that I feel is too personal to talk about right now (but it’s not really all that personal but I’m still dealing with it all) without having a definite diagnosis.
So I didn’t set up a budget for this month. I realized pretty early on that I wasn’t going to be able to do it. But this upcoming month (May) I will. I’m trying to save 25% of my paycheck because in the summer months (July-September) my pay will be cut drastically. So in order to do this I am challenging myself to spend $10 a day next month above my fixed expenses (~$1100 in spending total). What is going to be different about this challenge is that I am giving my self absolutely no leeway to spend ahead of time. So if it’s only the 3rd of the month, I can only spend $30 no ifs ands or buts about it. I will update next week to see how it goes.
Most days I’m alright, but then there are days like today.
It makes me question all aspects about myself.
Is my personality that unlikeable, or am I just plain ugly?
I guess I shouldn’t beat myself up too much…but I do.
I feel angry, sad, lonely and confused.
I am perpetually single. And to say it’s hard is an understatement.
I want a boyfriend.
