Even though I am not catholic, I do always seem to follow the catholic ritual of giving up something for 40 days. Really....its the least I can do for what my savior did for me. But as I sit and ponder what I am really attached to, or what I really need to sacrifice for the moment....it all came to me:
NO MORE SPENDING, at ALL! The budgeting/debt snowball is still going great, but I'm going to kick it into INTENSE mode and for the next 40 days, minus Easter spending. I'm going to sacrifice anything that is not needed above pure living expense. I'm not going to do anything but live off what I have, and not even spend the extra that's left over or go out to eat and such. I'm not going to put entertainment in March's budget either. I'm going to see what life can really be like if we don't have my paycheck and see if we can make it.
THIS IS GOING TO BE TOUGH. It's 40 days.... and I can do this!!!!!
