Thank you everyone. Bev, I printed out the guidleines you posted for me. They are wonderful and I feel I can relate them to my miscarriage as well. I also want to show them to my husband because it will be really helpful for him too.
I am going to try the piggy bank idea both for the lollies and the spending -it's a good one. I'll let you know how I go. I'll also try the lolly note on the fridge.
Now for today,
I'm happy to say that I did go to Yoga last night and enjoyed it very much. I also walked my dogs this morning. I found it hard to motivate myself for that but the dogs were definitely grateful.
I went to the shops to get a travel money belt for $20 but I also bought a backpack for $30, memory card for the camera for $120 (though we will need it in Bali so I don't feel too bad about that), an oil burner, some incense and candles for about $40 (I didn't really need those).
So even if I don't count the memory card I wasted $70 today. I will set up a piggy bank and try fining myself half of what I waste.
Any other ideas for this spending problem? It is out of hand.
I did fairly well with the lollies as I didn't touch a single one up to lunch time. I deliberately didn't buy any but after lunch I was scrounging around in the pantry and pinching one of my son's lollipops, followed by another and then two iceblocks. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
