something new and accountability
So, I'm reading an ARC of a book called Living Well and Spending Less. There's also a website of the same name. www.livingwellspendingless.com. It's time to start seriously cutting expenses in my life and work on decluttering my life.
I'm thinking if I start journaling about it, it will hold me accountable and make me stick to it. So. Here goes nothing. I'm going to attempt the 31 days of Living Well and Spending Zero found here: http://www.livingwellspendingless.com/31-days/livingwellspendingzero/
Christmas is probably the best time to start it. Especially since my shopping, wrapping, etc is done. And I have no need to buy anything for at least a few weeks between the holiday meals and the gifts I may or may not receive. I have more clothes than I know what to do with. I have more books than I will ever read. And my craft room looks like a hurricane it. Add in some other stuff from the past few months and my house is beginning to look like the beginnings of a hoarders episode.
So. If you're game. Check out the website. Then check out the book and consider purchasing a copy. The book is due out at the end of the month.
Living Well, Spending Less: 12 Secrets of the Good Life
But I'm going to try to post here with the challenges I face as I wrestle through the first thirty one days. I've always felt I can buy what I want, but as I've discovered recently, that isn't the case. So it's time to cut back.
