It took some time for me to figure out a budget that made sense, and when you couple that uncertainty with the upheavals of moving, it can be pretty stressful. I had to seriously adjust my expectations for my travel budget--meaning that I spend 3-4 times as much on travel now compared with my grad school days. I'm never really "ahead" on paying for travel because it's so damn expensive. But everything else has evened out.<br /><br />Fingers crossed for M. and your household budget! xoxoRosiecat24https://www.blogger.com/profile/07219527037186545061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6822839939627192494.post-22029862094763806992012-12-06T20:44:41.362-06:002012-12-06T20:44:41.362-06:00I have to admit that I could be better at budgetin...I have to admit that I could be better at budgeting. I like traveling, I like good wine and beer, and I like clothes and shoes. I'm usually pretty good at keeping all of this in relative check, but it's been a little of a struggle the past few months because everything is more expensive than I was accustomed to here - especially to fly away to somewhere else. Hopefully, my husband will be employed again soon and that will alleviate some of my anxieties. Raquelitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13138113830990586689noreply@blogger.com
