Goal

I have one overarching goal for the month of June.

STAY ON BUDGET!!!!

Admittedly I didn't do too badly for the month of May, but I'd rather not end up with less than ten dollars in my account at the end of June. It's not conducive to low stress to have to worry about the ability to buy the basic necessities of groceries for the last week of the month. Not to mention any potential emergencies that may crop up.

Methods for staying on budget:

Eat at home.
Don't carry the debit card.
Carry snacks from home.
Don't carry the credit card.
Have meals readily available for day's I'm too tired to cook.
Satisfy cabin fever with a nice walk or bike ride.
Hide the debit card.
Sew.
Knit.
