Cash cow

Well let's just say we picked a bad week to do this project. For the two weeks we were recording our spending I was traveling between three states. Needless to say I spent over 300 dollars on traveling expense. On a normal week I would have spent signifigantly less money. I also notice that I spend a lot of money on silly things pike coffee and bagels when both those items are in my house. I wouldn't say my family is rich but I wouldn't say we are poor. We just spend a lot of money on our hobbies. My mother is very money conscious and so we have strict money rules. On a usual weekend I may spend up to 15 dollars.....which if you think about it is quite a lot. My mom has problems with this! I think I can improve my spending and be more conscious of my decisions.
