Not spending money is easy...

when you're either too depressed or too sick to get out of bed!! *rolls eyes* My moods are getting better and more under control now that I'm having fewer problems sleeping. I'm still spending too much time alone in my apartment but part of that is because the weather has gotten really cold (duh, it's winter) and I'd rather just stay in my cozy little home. Also, Romeo has recently gotten sick and although things haven't been smooth for us in the past little while, I'm not about to abandon him when he's not well (I told him I was merely keeping him alive so I could continue yelling at him later). I'm not sure if I was already sick with whatever he has and it just took longer to hit me but upon waking this morning, I thought "Yes, my throat is definitely sore" and I will probably be stuck in bed myself as of tomorrow.

On the bright side, all this staying close to home means I haven't really spent much money so far this month (and most of the money I did spend was on meds/supplies for Romeo!!).

I'll be working an extra flight this evening, which wasn't a wise choice on my part. If you're having problems with your sleeping patterns volunteering to work a red-eye is pretty much the dumbest thing you can do...I REALLY didn't think that one through!

The rest of the month will be busy as I'll be doing most of my month's flying from the 23rd onwards. I also have some social visits, my own family's Christmas dinner to help out with and some baking to do to give to friends. It shouldn't be too stressful though as I've finished most of my gift shopping so I can avoid the craziness at the malls. :)
