The week's financial update

Looks like through all the drama and whatnot I haven't posted about my budget. I know I haven't kept to it, but here's the skinny:

Tuesday: $1.32 (sandwich)
Wednesday: $11 on dinner at Islands
Thursday: I can't remember for the life of me
Friday: $16 on chipotle for dinner and $24 for the movies.
Saturday: $14 on In-n-out for lunch and on Taco bell for a 1am snack after a party
Sunday: I went golfing twice (2nd round paid courtesy of won bets from first round), then spent $40 on lunch for my dad and me, $24 on drinks, then $12 on chinese food and more later at the vet, but I'm not counting that.

Although this is doesn't fit my budget like I had planned, it's still 1000 x better than I used to be. Sunday was my real day of spending money, but I used to spend money like that two-three days at a time. Spending money is now in every decision I make and I am happy with that. The good thing is, the Sam's club purchase I made that was supposed to at least last until yesterday, is still around. I still have a lot of chicken and ground beef as well as stuff for my sandwiches, so I can make up for the money I spent in the last week and today.

Today I have spent $25 on lunch with Jim so far (olive garden). I know I'll have $5 for parking tonight for my dance class and maybe a bottle of water or two.
