Spend

l like to make a challenge to start a brand new year so l'll make my bank now balance l'll live free and less in fear l got my pen and paper a list l start to make it's a must to get me braver but eat, l want the cake So down the list l go 2ft long l'd say at least and little did l know it there's more that l had missed No more makeup, clothes or perfume l shed a little tear but de-clutter all the bathroom but it doesn't stop the fear No more hobbies, books or music and the list is still not done panic starting, feeling sicker as i'm losing all my fun l do so like a challenge but this is taking it much too far it's making me feel stressed and damaged slap up meal, get in the car. I'm very proud to say l did better than last year l managed it for one day 'No Spend Year' l'll never learn p s; this is just a humor rhyme, i'm known as a frugal queen as we have no car, mortgage free and bought our little cottage in the countryside outright 7 years ago. l hate spending money lol.
