I can not believe I am sticking with this frugal stuff. Any one that knows me , knows that I can get discouraged pretty easily sometimes. But it is something I am trying to work on. I am a work in progress. But today I woke up and I can’t even explain how I am feeling. The only word I can think of is blah! This whole process is definitely not easy. It is especially hard when I see others spending money so freely. I start thinking, “I used to be like that, get my tax refund and go on a shopping spree. We just would go and buy any and everything we wanted. But my emotions are all weird. It is not like I even want to shopping or need anything. So why am I feeling this way? I mean I know I am looking at money differently. I do not want to be in debt anymore. I am literally exhausted with the stress that comes with being in debt. And I do feel different. I am actually not thinking about spending as much as before. And I have not defrosted any credit cards and I am proud of myself for that. I think today I just needed a little frugal support. I found a post at frugal village that really talked to me. It made me feel better because at the end of the day I am happy and didn’t have spend any money to get this way.
