It was one of those moments when you set out to do something completely unrelated to what was intended. I sat down at my computer to look at a file and accidentally opened the wrong program. Numbers, which is like Excel for Macs, opened and there were all these templates to choose from. I saw a section that was called "Personal Finance" and I thought to myself in an amused kind of way, "I have no personal finance." then it just hit me! like a flash of maturity that came over me. I sat down and made a budget. I really detailed budget that doesn't allow for any unnecessary spending. so far I have kept to it pretty well. week one was an overall success. I did have to allow for some unexpected expenses in one category and it's a good thing too.
This week I came down with an awful cold that completely knocked me off my feet. And wouldn't you know, we didn't have a drop of cold medicine in the entire apartment. so I had to go buy some. It's not as cheap as I was expecting. I guess it's been a while since I've had to buy cold medicine.
I had gotten on my computer just to look at something and then before I knew it I was mapping out the next month, financially. Even before I made this budget I've realized that I need to be more mature about things. It's time to be an adult (even though I still feel like a kid)
