Things I don't/shouldn't do anymore

The nature of budgeting and limited spending really cuts me sometimes. Most times, it is the small things that I pass up that make me sad, the manicures and pedicures I'll live without, the lunches ordered in, the expensive canadian yogurt that I love (my daily pleasure!).

But what bothers me most is the fact that I haven't visited my friend in California since he's moved there, that makes me sad. Other trips have taken priority over this one, mainly weddings and visiting the boyfriend's family. And I haven't spoiled my nephew with gifts and toys in a really long time. I know that he doesn't need all of the toys, but it is still fun to spoil him, that's one of the joys of being an aunt.

I may keep a running tab of little silly things that I miss, just to help me to avoid them, because damn, my cuticles are ugly and in need of some loving attention!

List of things I miss:
1. Manicures
2. Pedicures
3. Buying Lunch
4. Expensive Yogurt
5. Dinners out

Big items I can't wait to spend $$$ on:
1. Plane ticket to California
2. Unlimited gifts for my nephew
3. New curtains for apartment
4. New bedding
5. A proper VACATION
