BUDGETING .... AN EXTRA CHALLENGE

i was never good with money.... maybe because i've always had just enough during my younger years that's why budgeting was never my cup of tea. But now that i have a family, budgeting our household have always been an extra challenge for me... well i can draft a budget that would seem realistic and fair but implementating the said budget is another story or should i say the greatest challenge. I admire people who are able to follow and implement their budget to a T !.... i'm hopind someday i can do the same.

The good thing about this budgeting is you always get to the do it every payday... so when you don't get it the first time, there's always the next payday to work on and hopefully after some hit and miss, i would finally get it right !

GREAT FRIENDS.....


We call this Our Family Picture because technically, all of us are more than friends ... we're a family. Over the years we've been through a lot.. heartaches, death in the family, pregnancies ... but through thick and thin, we've managed to overcome the problems and never fail to smile when we look back.
The past few weeks i've been through a series of ups and downs and if it weren't the support of these great friends, i really don't know how i'll survive. They've always been there to help me out... aside from the financial help, they never fail to uplift my spirit when i needed it most. When i'm tired and almost ready to give up i just turn to them and things get better.
Before i get all mushy and teary eyed , i know simple thank is not enough for everything... but for now, that's what i can afford....
I know i've been very blessed bec the Lord gave me Great friends....
