I began the month
with $142 in my checking account, $35 in my wallet, half a tank of gas in the
car and a little bit less than that much in my truck. I topped up the car, added $25 worth to my
truck just a head of the big price surge and prepared for what was to
come. On the fifth I paid all of the
utility bills as well as the mortgage a month ahead of schedule. My next check was used to pay all of April's
expenses, add more items to our prepper pantry, pick up a new pair of summer
sandals and the rest went into savings.
I am very blessed to be sitting in a good spot financially at the
moment.
April is going
to be very different and extremely exciting.
I will share more about what I have planned very soon. So many changes up ahead. My daughter will be graduating from high
school in May and within a few months heading off to college. My oldest daughter has a lot of changes ahead
of her too. I am preparing ahead for as
much of it as possible.
One thing I am
going to tell you right now is that I'm challenging myself to a no spend month
which is why I decided to pay the April bills ahead of time. Lord willing, I'm seriously planning a NO
SPEND month! That will go hand in hand
for a lot of other things I've got planned as well so I hope you'll hang around
for what is to come.
Wow, I'm so excited for you!!! Can't wait to hear about your no spend month :-)
