New Year's Resolution

What is my New Year's resolution you ask (ok you probably don't really care, I think this is more for my benefit)...no its not eating healthier, or to lose ten pounds, or to work out everyday (although those would all be great for me)...its budgeting. As you all know I suck at this. I tried to put a budget in place several months back but our circumstances changed and I never changed our budget and overall it didn't work. Its not like I ever spend too much money, or don't get the bills paid. The problem is I by things and always feel guilty about it! With a budget in place (its going to have to be cash based for groceries/dates/gas/ect) I will hopefully be able to shop worry free. I will know exactly how much money I have and won't be able to spend more than I had planned because I will only be able to use the cash I have. I hope this works because worrying about money is not fun! And it is a constant struggle for me. I don't know why I worry so much, but it is one thing that consumes me. Probably more than you all needed/wanted to know. But there it is. Written in stone (not really). Ready, set, go.
