don't shoot me too enthusiastically, am not saying actual poverty has any advantages, nor am I overly smiley about creeping debts
but income is vastly reduced and things are a bit hand to mouth, not that was ever drastically rich but some expenditure that was all too easy and bit extravagant is quite nice to have to do without and probably would never have made those changes as am personification of easy life and instant gratification = eg massive fan of eating out and takeaways and paying people to do stuff for me
so think has been good personal development type change, and hopefully when circumstances improve again will retain stuff like living on own produce like eggs (not from personal ovaries of course, from our hens) and trusty breadmaker and fruit and veg boxes even bit of tidying up now and then, and bringing own roses into house instead of buying cut flowers to trick eyes of visitors away from the dust and unsightly piles of assorted stuff - which would usually spend £££ on activities outside house to avoid spending time with own squalor
is this quite bad or quite good?
