I blew it last night. Before I realized what i was doing I had ordered a pizza. Even worse is that I ate most of it. So I blew it on finance front and diet front. I am back to being committed this morning. Will shortly eat my oatmeal for breakfast.
I went to the court house yesterday and began the eviction proceedings for the renters. Hopefully they will get out soon. I hope i don't have to pay someone to empty out the house and dispose of their property.

Each day is a new day Another chance to "get it right" if such a thing exists.

Believe me, it DOES make a difference, even when you start having more money in your bank account. I've gotten to the point where I never spend money compulsively. The only time I buy something is when I know I can afford it.
You will get there, North Georgia!

I'm thrilled you did something to evict those renters. That is great. I'd avoid paying someone to clean. You should be able to take care of it. Yes, you might need to rent a dumpster, but that would be cheaper than paying someone to do ALL the work. You can afford to pay anyone to do something you can do yourself. It would be a good workout and calorie burning.

Confirm your son & friends will move-in, by getting a rent advance commitment. Should they change their mind, get your ad ready to post in CraigsList & whatever free/nearly free ads available in your community. Hunt up your RENT sign ready to pop in the window as soon as those wretched people are o-u-t. I'm not sure how the utilities are billed but those details must be handled.

If something like pizza is your bugaboo, then get the best frozen pizza you like from the store and keep some in the freezer for nights like this. A good six dollar frozen pizza beats a delivery pizza by anywhere from $6 to $20, depending on toppings. Or quickly make your own with a tortilla or flat bread or French bread from the grocery store and some toppings you keep on hand. A loaf of French bread from the grocery store bakery runs between $1 and $2, a can of tomato sauce is less than $1, a tbsp of bulk basil and bulk oregano from the herb section of your store will cost very little as it weighs very little. 1/4 pound of pepperoni (or another topping) from the deli also weighs very little.
Take half your loaf, spread it with half a can of tomato sauce, sprinkle it with herbs, add some mozzarella cheese, put the pepperoni on top, bake at 375 for 20 to 25 minutes on a cookie sheet on the middle rack of your oven. You will have about 3 minutes of hands on time to have a delicious pizza and it will be done before delivery would even get there and be so much cheaper. Plus it tastes great. And then later in the week you can do it again with the other half of the French bread, half can of tomato sauce, herbs, and remainder of your pizza toppings.
Start thinking outside of the pizza box. You can do this. You just need to make up your mind that you're really going to.
