"A penny saved is a penny earnt."

"A penny saved is a penny earnt." 

Today was almost a day like yesterday, I rested alot, took two naps and ated three times. I'm a bit less worried about my money though, but still, I really could use some more of it. My Aunt called last night, and she told me that I should look for some part time work. Just work here and there for perhaps a few hours then you get payed, that's an idea, yes. But my body says no, after a full busy week I'm to tired to do anything. But I will look for part time work anyway, who knows what kinda work it is. If it's only for a few hours or maybe a day, I can give it a try. Ugh, money! I really gotta take easy with my money, atleast for a few months. 

My mind was today with buying curtains or not, I saw some really nice once for a nice price. But I thought naah, maybe next time when my montly money comes. Stubborn I am I took a look anyway in the store where they sold the cheap curtains, and planning to buy them. When I had them in my hands I had doubts, not a nice colour I thought, and are they easy to put on? Doubts made me decide not buy them, I went to another store and looked around there. There they were a bit expensiver, but they were nice, but again doubts, sigh! I didn't know of the lenght, well, I knew the lenght what I should get, but, does the lenght really suited? Will it look nice? The curtains where light brown, and I thought, "Alright no more doubts, I'm buying them." The curtains were 6 Euro more then in the other store, but I didn't mind.

I took two, one of 60 mm and one of 75 mm, when I nearly wanted to pay them I saw they were two different colours. Damn! Doubts again, I putted them back and looked again, after five minutes I decided not to buy them. It's difficult to make a decision what I wanted if I not really know what I exactly want. There are so many ways to decorate a window, lol. Let me make first sure what I really want and think of a way what the cheapest way is to decorate the many windows I have. I think the besrt way is to measure all the windows what I want to decorate and be closed, (what I already did) and then go to a store with the measures and find a nice curtain or whatever decoration there is. I'm sure the guy or the girl from the store will help me out.

I left the store and actually planning to go to another store where they sell curtains aswell, but halfway I decided no to, lol. I bought the second half of grocery for the comming week and returned home. It was quit a bag full with grocery, but okay. It makes me think back at Humanitas, there I was the only one who bought lots of groceries, but cheap. I think I was the only one then who bought, veggies, fruit, or anything what was healty. Most of the residents didn't buy much groceries, and if they bought groceries they bought bread and meat. Or cigarrets, lol, lots of ciggarets. It made me think, do I really need all these groceries? Do I really have to buy this all? Just like today I had a bag full, but do I really need all that I ask myself.Maybe I could/should make it less. 


1 little bag of potatoes (1,89)

Alright, let's go silly, and I will tell you what I bought today for this whole upcomming week....

1 bag of chrunchy muesli (1,29) 7 days a week sandwisches can get boring, muesli or cornflakes breaks the habbit.
1 bag mixed salad (1,09) usually I buy veggies from a can but a nice salad so now and then can be nice too once in a week.
1 Package of fruitbiscuits (0,82) I take them with me to work, at 10:00 with the coffee  break, it's a nice snack.
I package of teabags (0,35) instead of coffee, sometimes.
1 little bag of potatoes (1,98) this is a little bag, just one week I do with them. Such a cutie bag.
1 brown casino bread (1,09) usually I go for the cheaper ones but bread is gone in the supermarket before you know it, I guess I'm not the only one who goes for the cheap bread, lol
1 white bread (0,56) There was just one cheap bread left, and it was white, sigh, but okay.
1 beer (0,80) cheers! just once a week. Sometimes I skip a week.
1 bag of paprika chips (0,45) so now and then in the weekends.
1 bottle of salad dressing (1,12) nice over the salad.
1 baking butter (0,35)
1 butter (for the sandwisches) (0,54)
1 smoked sausage (0,56) the cheapest meat there is, and so handy to prepair. 
4 vanille puddings (0,17) blush, only 17 cents, but hey, there okay.
1 package of sliced cheese (1,56) only for the working days, for lunch, what I use for the weekends.
1 little can of spinach (0,66) something different then always, beans, carrots and beets.
1 little bag of apples (2,00) fruit is good, I never skip.
3 peaches (0,68) one for Monday, one for Tuesday and one for Thursdays, for each working day, lol.
Casino bread, square and cute.
 Well, that's about it for this week, I usually buy the same grocery/products every week. Meat, potatoes, veggies, fruit and something what you can put on a sandwich. Like honey, coconut slizes, peanut butter, jam, aplle syrup, sweet stuff I know, it's nice in the morning, and not that heavy. Thinking of my full bag of groceries makes me think of my money, maybe I should make it less all that grocery, maybe just for a few months. I think I will laugh when I read this post back two or three months later, when I have enough money to pay all my grocery what I want. I can maby buy something extra, lol. I just will see and find out. No worries for tomorrow.
