asshole money.

Money is not my friend lately; it's a mix of bills getting higher and me spending on shit I dont really need but this is all going to change. I know that I cannot control the economy, I can't control how much a bill is going to be (I could try to make it less but it's inevitable) what I can control is my decisions. I decide to not spend on anything but essentials; which means we dont go out and spend one penny so, we are going to have to get creative. Ryan and I decided to take on the no spending month challenge just to see how much we are spending on unnessasary things. I'm sure the results will amaze us, I also talked to Peanuts about it since she's also in a money hole and she might do the same. I honestly don't know what the big deal is? There's plenty of free events to go sometimes, there're indoor activities we can do, quality time to spend together, work on ourselves, work on crafts, we can do things that don't require a lot of money like going to the pool or the park. There's no need to go out and drink $20 worth of beer, a 12 pack costs less and I could drink it happily at home, not every weekend either. Some changes need to be made; I feel that if these things dont change now then it'll be harder to change them later. I need to get used to spending less; it's amazing how now days, us...humanity seems to depend on a full schedule, events here...doing this and that, going here and there. Look at monks, how simple yet fulfilling their life is. I'm sure they get together and drink some wine and talk all night. No need for more, it's funny but I'm beginning to learn that when it comes to a social life less is more and you make the best out of it. You work on yourself, you explore, you create, you read, you dance, you learn, you love, you laugh. That's what is about.
