A change in mind set

When I think about making this trip and all the expenses that go with it -- I get a little overwhelmed. I have money that comes in every month so that is a big help. But my problem is that I spend what I have. I don't spend a lot on myself as I spend money on things for my business.

So from here on out I am going on a buying freeze. If I don't absolutely have to replace something broke or wore out, then I'm not going to buy it. I want to make sure that I have money up front in case of emergencies so I don't have to worry as much. I also have to get used to living in a very small space -- so my possessions can't be first.
