Doing Better

Good morning, all. I slept terribly last night so today I am dragging a little bit. I couldn't get comfortable and I couldn't relax. It was after midnight when I finally dozed off. The last time I looked at the clock it was 12:18am. Goo.

Current Obsession:

I got this 4 pack off of Amazon and I LOVE IT. EOS has to be bar far the BEST lip balm I have ever gotten and put on my lips. I love the smell, the texture, the feel on my lips.... everything. The sweet mint is my absolute favorite. If you are a chapstick junkie like me.... you MUST try these. MUST MUST MUST.

I've decided that I need to peek at the scale during the week. People worry that a person will become scale obsessed if they do this, but I remember being most successful when I did look at it a few times a week to see how I was doing. So, I am going to start peeking at least once a week to see where I stand. It is helpful to me and not harmful.

On Becoming Debt Free:
Not too much progress considering it is only two days into the month. Ha! I went to Ace Hardware last night and picked up some spray bottles for the new cleaners I have (organic from ProTek) I have the green cleaner and the enzyme cleaner for urine, feces, vomit, wine, grass stains, etc. Totally worth the investment. I have never been happier with a cleaner and the fact that they are organic makes me REALLY happy.

I also stopped by CVS because Andrew needed razor refills and I needed foundation and concealer. I have $12.50 worth of coupons so my damage there wasn't that bad.

Best part about these purchases? THEY WERE PLANNED. I do not feel guilty about spending the money and I am also not going "I shouldn't have gotten that stuff." You know how big of a deal that is? To go to the store, spend the money and go "This is OK. I told this money where it was going and now that it is used up, I'm good." It is liberating. No joke.

I am just very excited to get started on Baby Step Two. Soon!

My random crisis of the day?
My dog eats cat poop out of the litter box. If the litter box is in a closet, my cat pees on the floor. So, I am now facing the dilemma of "Do I put up with Caesar eating poop? Or do I put up with cat pee on the floor?" And no, I cannot use a covered litter box. Hobbs is HUGE and him not fitting in there is another reason he peed on the floor so much. Also, Caesar is on a very good food that provides him with all of the nutrients he needs and meat is the first ingredient in the food. Hobbs hasn't peed on the floor since we moved his box and uncovered it.

Animals.....

I just don't know what to do....
