cmarie33Reality Check
Alan and I sat down and reviewed our future spending “wants”, our income, travel plans, etc. for the next year and beyond. The spending wants were heavy on house maintenance, decoration, landscaping, etc. It was a huuuuge reality check to see how much things might cost compared to how long it will take to save that much money. It’s very clear to me that we will have to adjust our expectations and also learn to do more ourselves. I think we’re up for the challenge! :) 16 months ago
