So far in the past five days I have avoided Target, The Loft (despite sooo many sales!), and the grocery store. But there have been a few set backs already.
I ate out twice while freelancing. I had two 16-hour days going straight from job to job. On Friday and Saturday I ate out at one job, but packed lunch for the second job. Luckily, my pay for the freelance jobs include a small lunch stipend. I think the cheap meals of fried rice and Subway were OK because of the stipend. That’s how I’m going to look at it at least. However, I will try to be more prepared by packing better lunches in the future.
My big unexpected purchase was $15 for Sea Bands to help with nausea. I’ve been feeling slightly miserable lately. I know that’s probably partly attributed to the double shifts I have been working. Unfortunately, it’s a great month for freelance media and I want to earn as much as I can now while I still have the time to work crazy hours. I should have done more research on the Sea Bands though, because since buying them I read that some believe they produce only a placebo effect. I guess imagining they are working is better than nothing. With playoff hockey and arena football, ain’t nobody got time fo morning sickness!
Working away now to save for later!
