I have no real useful budget advice (Suze Orman? Dave Ramsey?), but I agree that you probably should allow yourself a small fun budget so you can go to the movies or get BK once in a while. And if you declutter and make a few bucks while getting something out of the house, that could go into your fun budget.
I have been thinking about eating my way through my pantry in case I need to move. We could have pantry parties in Natter.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I'd love to stop dying my hair, but I'm not quite ready to go gray again. I quit getting manis and pedis last year. Food, ugh. I'd probably spend less if I just ate at the diner every meal than all the money I spend on food that gets wasted because I don't cook it. Or junk food and frozen meals because they're easy. Eating everything in the kitchen before I buy more, though, that's definitely a good idea. Mainly, though, I need to stop impulse buying stuff I don't need off Amazon. And also finally sell the big pile of stuff I've been meaning to sell for years now.

Where is this guy? How long can it take to put duct tape over a vent? Did he fall down the hill and die? Doesn't he want to get paid?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
What I took from the last bunch of posts: Ooh, I have caramel ice cream at home!
A coworker just told me I look like shit. Well, what she said was, "You look like you've had a long day." So on that note, I'm going home.

I'm still paying off debt I racked up in the early 2000s, but I don't regret the period of excess expenditure that got the snowball rolling. I also chose to pay it off very slowly and be apartment-poor in a home I really like rather than living in a bleak cookie cutter apartment and be debt free five years ago.

I really do not deprive myself y'all it's ok.
You didn't see me writing that I would stop Dunkin altogether. Hells no.
Stuff I sell will definitely partly go to the fun budget.
Eta Dunkin, not Dublin. No Ireland for me.

Oh if I can get a zero interest card and balance transfer that would save the monthly finance charge. Boom!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I always like to eat down my pantry. Also trying to diet, though, which complicates that a little, because I feel like I want a uniform one or two things I can eat at each meal kind of diet, cut down on decision making. Hm.
