Working On a Budget

"Hon, magkaroon kaya tayo nang allowance?" I asked the husband.

"Tama yan wa! Tama talaga yan! Maganda yan wa!" came his emphatic reply.

I rue the hour that I thought of this saving measure!

Sabi nga ni Ate Eva, "Ah kaya ka kontrahon ni Sir Alvin kung sa pakuripotay lang Ma'am e."

 Thus for the past two days now I had been singing the same tune, "Hon libreha ko bi." 

I always spend in excess of my allowance. :(


Alvin, on the other hand is having a heyday reminding me that he does not spend for anything except his unmentionables and tongue in cheek texted that he will pay for my dinner during his pass.


Argh! I hate losing!


Truth be told though. This plan might just work.


1. I am actively monitoring our spending.


2. It effectively lessens my spending.


Hopefully in a few months we will no longer be in the red and maybe just maybe we can actually call ourselves rich.

As for now, the husband is grinning and I am cursing this BS saving scheme! :)
