In a funk Firstly, I am bloated. The baby is not big enough to be making any real difference to me yet, but I am bloated, and can't stand to have anything tight around my stomach. This means that all my pants I am usually quite comfortable in are now not comfortable, and I am schlepping around in pyjama pants! I need to go shopping for some loose fitting pants. Aside from tracksuit pants, do they actually exist? I may be destined to be a daggy tracky pants girl for awhile. Now, the big thing bothering me at the moment is money, or lack thereof. Really, I shouldn't even be worried about it. P is fairly well paid, and we manage (somehow) to get by. But all this talk of interest rate rises, and now especially with a baby on the way has got me scared. We can't afford an interest rate rise. We are trying to reevaluate our budget, and how we spend our money, but, having never had children before, it's impossible to know what all our expenses are going to be like once the munchkin is here. Of course this is causing me to look at what we really need to live, and what is just unnecessary clutter. Then of course I worry that I am spending too much time thinking about money and not enough time relying on God. I have to somehow find the right balance between using our resources responsibly, and relying on Him to provide. Just some of the many things on my mind today. Oh, and as far as the monthly to-do list, February kind of went out the window. I didn't complete anything! I'll try and make it a little more realistic this month. |
