One mo’gain: The road to fiscal responsibility.

By Mark Miron | Filed in finances, general

Here I am again, trying to implement the annual new year’s resolution of living within a budget. Every year I fail miserably but every year I get back up on that horse and try again.

Last year I purchased “You Need a Budget” (YNAB) and was very ambitious about entering all the data I could for as far back as I could and and drowned under the weight of the volume of the numbers. I could never get caught up to current and so gave up. This year I upgraded to the latest version of YNAB and I am back at it, but now I am only going back to the first of the year so that I have a hope of getting caught up.

We have way more outgoings this year with 2 car payments and a wee little one that we feel compelled to keep surrounded by battery operated plastic toys. Even with that I am hopeful that this is the year we get it under control. Wish us luck, pray for us; we need all the help we can get!

Relationships require commitment…

By Mark Miron | Filed in my life, the journal

I think I forget that . Maybe I just assume they will maintain themselves by virtue of past shared experiences but time has proven that friendships fade when not tended to. And to call someone a friend and to not invest that time, what does that communicate to that person you call ‘friend’ when you don’t invest the time?

To my old friends who haven’t heard from me in a while, so, a long while, know I still love you and I will try and do better.
