How this week went...

You ever notice how people tend to start things on Mondays?

I would be one of those people.

I started off the week with my meal plan and my cash and my updated budget and I was ready to go!

And then I fell off the wagon.

You'd think after going through this cycle over and over that I would figure out how it happens and make changes to prevent it.  Hasn't happened yet though.

Anyway, I still have quite a bit of food for several days.  I couldn't make 3 of my meals this week because I ran out of milk.  Who does that?  This girl.  On the grocery list for this week is obviously milk!  So when I get a meal plan finalized for this week I'll get it posted.

As a result of the milk oversight, we ended up spending more than I normally would have on eating out so my budget is a tad screwed up now for February.  I plan on updating that and posting it as well as doing a post with how I budget.

I went ahead and wrote this for anyone out there that has ever felt this way...you feel like you failed and wonder why bother trying changes if you can't stick with them....

Well that is one thing I'm changing.  I'm going to try again next week.  And instead of just making it to Wednesday I'll shoot for Thursday :)

Aside from the above, this week really was not bad....just super busy.  My youngest had his Cub Scout Blue & Gold banquet which went well and we were fed which helped.  I made a ton of progress on my work to do list, which was nice.  And my kids actually got along and were pleasant to each other all week. 

Here's to a good week next week :)
