Yeah!! It’s week five!
Welcome back all you passion seekers! I sure hope you’ve been able to stay on track saving coins, dollars whatever you had to save to reach your one hundred dollar goal!
As I mentioned last week, I finished up early. That had not been the plan but at some point you look around and exhale and realize you’ve got what you need. All in all I came in with a total of about ninety one dollars. By the time I threw in a candle and added in my rug which I don’t believe I mentioned ran me twenty four dollars. I’ve since taken away one of the storage boxes that sat atop my desk and I’ve added in a ceramic tile hand painted by my daughter when she was a child. This add was kind of a must as my Grandkids kept getting into it where it was and I was afraid of it cracking. I think it’s only fitting that my “Mom” tile resides on my desk. Motherhood has been my favorite roll ever. You’ll also notice a wooden sign given to me by my cousins daughter who I love, I wanted it displayed for me and for her, and for all who enter my house~ a little touch of fun!
I should also mention I did not buy the office chair, I stole it from work…It’s okay, I know the boss and he kind of loves me (how blessed is this girl?!?!) I haven’t really been back to work since my heart gave me trouble in March, let’s just say my husband and son have been picking up my slack and I fill in when I can. After I get my next procedure done, I’ll be staying home to babysit my two youngest Grand babies while the adults go to work, an honor I can’t put into words.
So what’s it gonna be, what are you going to put your one hundred dollars towards?
If you never take the first step, you’ll never get there. I’ve said it before but it bares repeating that you can do this and more than that you deserve a life where you wake up feeling excited about being alive. If you didn’t save money over the five weeks, a new month starts tomorrow and a new day is just hours away!! Renew yourself. Renew your spirit, renew your purpose and put yourself first.
With the traveling I’ve been doing lately I’m reminded that when the cabin pressure drops in a plane, you’re told to secure your mask first in order to be helpful to others. Help yourself!
Make it soon!
Till next time~ Erin
