“How do you stay faithful in a room full of hos?”
I LOL at this! :) I guess he speaks truth, though.

My husband and I get VERY motivated by going to open houses and on drives to the area we’d like to live in. Of course we also dream of paying for said dream house in cash. We’ll see how that goes. :)

How I rid my desire for junk food:

1) Internalize that junk food does nothing good for you. It adds calories and does not provide nutrition.
2) I NEVER spend money on junk food. I can’t even compel myself to buy raw sugar because adding it into an otherwise healthy recipe feels even worse than woofing down a KitKat bar. Something about pouring sugar into a bowl for consumption feels very…. intentionally stupid.
3) I keep a 6-pack on hand at all times. 6-pack of abs of course. Keeping those abs apparent is much easier without fat cascading over them!!!!

In reply to Dear Debt. Maybe it's the world telling you to take up a side hustle to then PAY for that airfare you obviously want so bad? :)

In reply to Eric. No one said you can't partake :) You just can't have a girlfriend/fiance/wife if you choose that route, haha...

Right on man. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again. Stop going to the freaking mall. You’re wasting gas driving there, and you’re doing nothing but tempting yourself to spend. And that time you’re wasting, too. Come on now. I’d much rather relax to the sweet soulful melodies of Yeezy than spend my hard earned cash.

Seriously, why tempt yourself? I stopped buying ice cream because it never lasts more than 2 sittings, and I need to really stop “browsing” airfares. It’s like, really? Why am I doing this to myself when I can’t really afford it. We want to be pretend the option is feasible for us. So we just keep looking, or being around it. And it doesn’t help!
