creative budgeting

This has been a busy week attending the sweet little daughter's events. She is graduating from High School soon and I am sad. Fortunately, she is turning out surprisingly well and may soon become an asset. She has recently acquired a job and even though she will not have a high salary, I can charge her room and board. If I take a percentage of her take home pay, I will have an extra $3.45 to squander.

The good thing about "extra" income is that it can be used multiple times. If I see a little trinket that I must have I can say "Well, I have that extra $3.45 to spend, so I can treat myself." I can use that same reasoning when it comes to dining out and running up my credit card and making frivolous purchases on e-bay. So you see, $3.45 really does go a long way!

Oooh I�just noticed today's thought provoking question "Where are you not demonstrating integrity to yourself" Hmmmph, that is none of my business. My lack of integrity is safely protected from my conciousness by my subconcious if it is doing it's job correctly.
