I suppose one day my family will come to realize what an accomplished chef I am, evidenced here by my homemade croutons. But for now, they'll have to wait.

Day 1: 1 Month, $0 Budget Challenge
Yesterday was only the first day, and I almost caved without even realizing it.We were out of Coke, although we had several other varieties of soda in the fridge. My husband, knowing how much I like Coke, offered to make a run to the store. It was a sweet but typical suggestion, offered and accepted many, many times in the past. But then I snapped: no, no, no ... I can live without Coke, really I can. *groan*
I wonder . . . how are others remembering to break those little sabotaging money-spending habits we don't even consciously think about?

1 Month, $0 Budget Challenge
With month after month passing and the budget only getting more stretched--although I don't know how that's even possible--I figure this is a difficult but timely challenge. After all, what could be more challenging than making ends meet on an income that already doesn't even cover basic bills and needs? The biggest struggle may be celebrating our son's 10th birthday in style, but then that's the point of this challenge, right? Spend money only on what you can literally not live without. We've just celebrated a frugal Christmas. Why not extend that to the upcoming birthdays?

Happier Children
I find myself wondering if I've lost my opportunity to positively impact my children by my own "opinions" (aka venting). But here's an interesting read: 31 Days to Happier Children. And even though I've only just begun this journey, one thing I know from watching my kids: because their attitudes often mirror my own, the transformation will take place by my modeling! So the count down begins. I'm starting Day 1.
