The Bills Agreement:

April 4th, 2011 at 02:03 pm

BF and I have talked about the Bill Agreement, I realize I never told you what we decided on.

As of now until July, BF will purchase ALL the groceries and he will give me money in the amount that I am in the red each month (without having to break into savings). This month it will be $106.11 that I need prior to 13 April. March Groceries he spent $250 after coupons, plus he also purchased 4 of those Pizza Corner Pizzas from a co-worker.

He also provides daycare for my drill weekends (this month I have it twice so this month this will actually save me $200).

***

Starting July (after his Lease is over) He will pay HALF of ALL the Household bills. He asked me to do a rough budget, he wanted me to base the utilites on the Gas/Elect being the average of the top 3 months and the water/waste the top 3 months. So his half would be $616 per month. Starting July we would split the groceries.

The challenge is going to be me NOT going to the store. I go to the store for stuff (Easter Basket stuff) okay truthfully out of boredom and buy a loaf of bread, A package of Cuties oranges and a quart of Ice Cream that I have been craving. This is my fault; I need to control myself!

When we went grociery shopping I told BF we had enough bread, so he did not purchase any. Yesterday we had enough to last until he got back from his trip if it was only used for DS lunch. But I think DS might want Egg sandwiches and other bread using meals for dinner while BF is gone. The Oranges well we bought some when we went grociery shopping last and they were SOOOOOOOOOO good. They are PERFECT for putting in DS's lunch and for healthy snacking, this is going to be a new staple to our grocery list. I just need to make sure to grab two bags when we go shopping, since we tend to go every other weekend. The final grocery item I bought was also my fault, BF asked if we needed Ice Cream, I said NAH we can go without it. So what have I been craving for a week, Ice Cream. I think it is the dairy/calcium.

I put the groceries on the credit card because I did not have $ budgeted/left for groceries so BF might still end up paying for them next month when I calculate what I am in the red to meet the minimum payments without having to take out of savings.

I NEED to be strong, I NEED to stay away from the store. I NEED to go for a walk when I get that house boredom INSTEAD of going to the store.
