The kids spring break plans were all cancelled. School activities pushed back for an indefinite amount time period or cancelled. Clients are backing off and reevaluate their strategies. And now summer is up in the air too…
Will Princess be in a position to acquire her Drivers License?
Will Gymnast be in a position to acquire his passengers License?
Will the kids get to visit their Grandparents?
Will Princess’ daddy be able to deliver the car he has promised her to get her birthday to her?
Will Sea Cadet be able to operate in the summer camp?
Will Princess be able to take college classes this summer?
Can History Buff and Sea Cadet be in a position to see their girlfriends (those who reside in Virginia?)
And the list continues on and on. What about you? Do you have programs you aren’t certain what will happen and which are messed up now? Do you have kids which are driving you bonkers with their questions and desires which you can’t answer…
The road ahead is uncertain and foggy, but I am determined to make the very best of it!
May will be a Full Month
Needless to say planning mama, this really is a struggle. I am focusing on becoming more conscious and planning with the things I really do have control of. For example, I’ve got control of my program, lots of free time and what I spend the cash. With that said, I am preparing for May.
Princess will turn 16.
School will finish for the two Princess and Gymnast.
Work is picking up but still leaving lots of free time to me.
I/we need a brand new side hustle that doesn’t cost a great deal of cash and will keep Princess and Gymnast occupied. (I’m hoping Princess is going to be able to get work, but the odds are iffy from the present environment.)
Financial Challenge for May
Here’s what I have come up with…
May will be a no month, spend – no eating out/picking food up and that I shall meal program for the month in advance so hope to decrease at supermarket down to the minimal.
I am preparing for Princess’ birthday this month. Brainstorming ways to make the day special. However, I’ve already ordered a couple of little gifts since her”big gift” will be driving related in certain sense.
We will start a side hustle of furniture, windows and older doors. I am getting things together this month, to Get Ready for this:
I have been picking up odds and ends FB Marketplace for under $ 5 off and our house is full of true antiques passed down.
Reviewing ideas that are repurposed on the internet we need. So we are mostly set, the twins have a good range of tools. I did purchase a set of horses $40 – to be delivered in early May.
We’re going into it, while May is going to be filled with events. If we focus on the trial and creative facet of our brand new side hustle we can spend the next months . Are you interested in a two prong challenge for May. . .No Spend and Produce New Opportunities!
