Do you like my new title - Frugal Project 365 - it's exactly what it states let's see how long I can keep this going for LOL. I'm not aiming to be perfect or go that's it I refuse to spend any more money but it's more about the challenges and finding the best way to deal with things!
In the past year as many of you know I've become a Zumba Instructor and have been teaching classes which has been great, getting fit and healthy and inspiring other's to do the same!
I'm managed to loose 20kgs in the past year following the Michelle Bridges 12 week body transformation and adopt a fairly healthy lifestyle which I will have for the rest of my life! I have seen many other friends take up the challenge too so I wish them all the best. After being on her online program for 36 weeks I am taking it 'offline' and not being a paid member and doing it 'on my own' or at least with all the facebook friends I have met along the way.
Also yesterday was Xmas so with that came a mountain of presents and mess! So I figured rather than wait for the new year I'd just dive in right now and get started.
Going to redo the budget today, make a 'plan of attack' for cleaning the house and setting up routines and schedules (I feel like sigh here we go again), organise parts of the house which are WWIII remains and just to remember to 'just keep swimming'...
So this blog is about the next 365 days of the year and my adventure! Being as frugal and organised as I can! It could be the most funniest thing at times I'm not sure I know how to organise myself out of a wet paper bag!
I remembered the other day after I cashed in a whole boot of station wagon filled to the brim about ths challenge and can report back it was a SUCCESS!!! I KNOW that I cashed in at least 365 cans and probably by a loose count nearly at least DOUBLE that I do KNOW that I would have gotten about $150 in cash over the past year for the all the cans and bottles that we did cash in - not bad for picking up the odd one here or there and helping the environment.
