How I did it
It made me 
How I did it: The usual way. I applied for jobs, got depressed, applied for more. I got one interview and luckily got it! Thank goodness because none of the other job applications panned out. It was mostly waiting though. Read how I did it…
It made me 
How I did it: I started ordering weekly fruit and veg boxes to arrive every Tuesday. The size of the box we ordered was just a bit large for us (to start with) but we forced ourselves to eat it all and waste as little as possible. It just kept comming every week, even if we did no other food shopping we had veg. Read how I did it…
It made me
How I did it: It wasn't hard once I got started. Planting all of the seeds is intimidating becuase you don't know how productive they will be. No one wants a deluge of zucchinis. But you just have to keep at it. It's definitely a long term commitment which goes hand in hand with healthier seasonal eating. Read how I did it…

Neccessary?
11 months ago
I’m not sure that my new clothes were absolutely neccessary right now. Having done a stocktake of my wardrobe and chucking some of the unwanted stuff out in a garage sale I found lots I didn’t know I had. By reducing my wardrobe down to just the things I wear (and the changing of the season helped too) I found I really had a lot. The two pairs of pants I bought are great- don’t get me wrong. They’re comfortable, don’t expose any unwanted butt crack and I get compliments on them. They’re elso not denim so I have branched out. I’m just not sure if they were neccessary.
