Last night started out as a great night. I cut out a size run in a gingham and floral cotton pantie (and an extra gingham pair for me!). I read a chapter of The Smart Cookies Guide to Making More Dough and Getting Out of Debt, and felt even more motivated to save for that down payment! I read a chapter of Three Day Road. I listened to the classical radio and felt really great about cancelling my VIP cable package and going down to bare basics (did you know if you tell them you can’t afford it they’ll automatically knock off 20% and remove any other fee’s? I went from spending nearly $70 a month on cable to $28).
I feel great that I’ve made some pretty big financial changes in order to reach a bigger goal. I’m excited about it, and I’m excited about my life. I cut out my morning coffee and muffin, I cut out most of my cable, I cut out lunches out at work, I’m cutting back on my going out expenses. Now I feel like I should be seeing the money rolling in… I guess that takes a while!
Last night reminded me why I really want to do this. I was almost asleep when I hear “JESUS CHRIST F#^$ F^%# JESUS F@#$ S&*% F$*&!!!!” Then crazy, insane crying. I’ve heard the crying many times, but the swearing is pretty new. Now the thing that really scared me, as I lay alone in my bed last night, is that it sounded like it was coming from outside my front door. Either way, my neighbour is insane and scary and I need to move.
