The psycho in me

I'm not sure why I'm like this all of a sudden but lately I have been crazed with money. Its not neccesarily greediness but I am panicked about saving and making sure we have a decent amount in our accounts. I've become very frugal with my cash (except for my random purchases that can be quite expensive at times!), and have Chris on this strict "money diet" that I think has started to drive him mad.

I've set a goal for "us" to save $10,000 by the end of this year and I'm turning into this eratic monster trying to meet it. I feel bad cause at times I feel hypocritical when I spend money on something that I don't allow chris to, but at the same time I remember looking at our bank account quite a few times this year and seeing that he's spent over $400 on fast food and junk. We both work our tails off to provide this great life for each other and I think that it's a waste that it's spent on greasy fast food that is making us the sizes of blimps (but thats for another posting!!)

I wish I knew a way that could relax me enough to make the right decisions finacially wise but at the same time not have me stressing out so much that I am having heart palpatations.

Thoughts anyone?? ::cricket noises::

sooo sweet!

Today Chris did something AMAZING! For the first time in 5 years he brought flowers home without being told to or guilted into. To some it may seem trival or petty but this was a huge step for him. He did something to make me smile for no special reason. That was the best gift he's given me in a long time. It's showing me how he listens to what I say, and how he's trying his hardest to make me happy and I love it!
