Week 2 Check-in
Snacks $0.00 / $0.00 
Books/Music/Games $0.00 / $25.00
Hobbies $10.00 / $10.00 
Giving/Mutual Aid $225.23 / $200.00 
Spent out this month’s $200 allotted for giving plus $25.23 of the $50ish that’s been sitting in that sinking fund. So 1/4 of Budgetober goals met.
I’m really struggling with getting things done at work and am increasingly freaking out about it. I panic bought two planners to try to rig up my own Jibun Techo Days planner, and then found an actual Days for sale so panic bought that too. (I also bought some pens). I’m not really sure how to classify them, but I figured it wasn’t totally a hobby but don’t have an office supply sinking fund, so I guess it goes in Miscellaneous, but I only keep $75 floating in that fund so I moved some of the Hobbies sinking fund into Miscellaneous to cover the planners, so I guess that includes the $10 I budgeted for the month. These were totally not in the plan, and I’ll probably return the two non-Days planners, but I think I’ll consider this my wand wavey reset moment and consider that I stuck to my Hobbies budget. (Also, why do I have a hobbies budget and then a books/music/games budget? ¯_(ツ)_/¯ )
