So far my entire blog has been about my constant struggle with food. Just to shake things up a bit, I thought I'd tell everyone what's been on my mind these days. Dave Ramsey. That's right, the financial expert. I started listening to him on YouTube & I find him to be very likable & interesting & I think he has a lot of knowledge when it comes to managing your finances. I'm all about saving money! I want to get out of debt & become a millionaire! I'm going to follow Dave Ramsey's "baby steps" to reach my financial goals! I'm sooo excited about this!
On Thursday my husband & I started the envelope system to see where we are spending for 30 days so that we can create a budget. Today, I clipped coupons & planned our meals for the next two weeks, wrote a grocery list & went to the store and STUCK TO IT! I almost picked up a container of ice cream (that I didn't need) but I changed my mind because its not a necessity. I only bought the things on my list, I used my coupons, saved some money & also saved time in the store because I knew exactly what I wanted & didn't need to look around. I'm pretty happy about that!
Lets see how the next few weeks go with creating my budget ;)
