    this week i tracked everything i bought. (i feel like i have been spending too much lately). with that i bought only things i needed. which was food and cleaning supplies. i spent $107,  which i think is good! i have to track more of my stuff to find out. also i have been exchanging goods and services with my neighbors which strengthens our relationship and is fun!
