Megan and Dom's Journey:
Take out, tonight?
This week we have been struggling with juggling multiple schedules, illness, outside priorities and activities, and a tumultuous election season. We have not had energy to cook or sometimes keep the house as tidy as we used to so we have been ordering a lot of take out. I think that is the “ugly” part of this that we need to be honest about where our priorities are and this week they are not with cooking and staying within our food budget.
Megan is leaving for California for four days and staying within a budget there in a very expensive place will also be hard. Dom will also have to stay within a food budget with himself and both kids. We are hoping we can stay within our goals.
We still aren’t seeing progress in our savings and hope that we can identify more ways to save and also give ourselves grace if we don’t get there. We think that once we move and our priorities shift, we will be able to save more heavily.
Thanks for following along!
