Gonna have to retract this statement :/
She was cheaper via newcloversinging and they offer layaways so...
I deserve a trophy or perhaps a special ribbon ( <- did not buy a bjd that he cant financially justify)
#this does mean i need to be very careful for the duration of the layaway period and especially these next few weeks since#i still have 2 payments left on my magickademia thalia#but in a way i think its good because its a commitment and makes me actually prioritise what i want most wrt hobby stuff#i did lose my interest bonus on my savings for this month though :( did a transfer before deciding i couldnt justify buying her outright#this pay hasnt been great though for unrelated reasons#didnt realise i was out of rabbit bedding so didnt budget for that and also had to buy dental floss refills online after it turned out the#different brand sucked which was really annoying because that was money wasted and then having to pay shipping on an item like dental floss#is painful#like to be clear do not worry about me when i talk about budgeting because i leave a safety net of roughly $150 when i do my#fortnightly budget forecast so when i talk about bad pay periods what i mean is the safety net will need to be breached#im on holidays with family this week so need to cover for that too#my parents cover the cost of accomodation but ill need to cover a chunk of the other costs#my parents are perhaps part of the reason i see it as worthwhile to push budgeting to cover nice things#theyve always tried to give us a 1 week holiday every year somewhere nice even though it means being very careful with money#we do very little for christmas usually because of this#champagne tastes on a beer budget kind of deal... except id say more like a nice midprice wine on a beer budget#its never reckless but it does take more effort#hmm#maybe i should talk less on my own finances...#idk i think i share these things because im in that weird position where i have a decent amount of spending money but only because its not#actually enough to live independently#which results in weird guilt over spending that money on dolls and such even though i know very well its not enough to afford renting#or a home loan or anything like that#its a silly thing to feel guilty over idk#such is life when you are a burden on the state
