Great article from another Modern Mom that I came across. Such a touchy subject for most families but something that needs to be visited and discussed between husband an wife to secure a positive and healthy household.
I have to admit, I have slippery fingers. I am a shopaholic and the sight of seeing sales (from garage sales to department store sales), I'm on it like a hawk! It's like when you were a young child hearing the ice cream truck music playing from the next block all giddy and excited.I am glad that my hubby is much better in budgeting and sticking to it! He knows what we really need vs. what we just want.
I don't want to be responsible for my family falling into debt so it's definitely something I'm working on. But hold on, don't think now that I am one of those crazy shopaholic's with dollar signs in my pupil's. Far from it. I still know my limit's. Just hard to not walk away from a shop I adore without even a little item like $20 worth of picture frames, a $5 iced latte or a cute top for my Ava. Yes, I know all those little expenses add up.
Blame it on those darn little voices in my head. :p
