| Desire Level |  7/10 |
| Resistance |  2/10 |
| Your Comments | I’m kinda low today, the result of too much stress. So while my resistance is low, my desire isn’t very high. What I want isn’t bought with money. It’s time, and the ability to make school magically better. But as I let my purchases sink in, I do feel a bit better for it.  |

| Your Comments | I think I needed that break to refocus. it felt good to open this up today, where on other days it didn't. I just got discouraged with all of our expenses, and didn't focus on the fact that everything will work out. So we have no idea how, at the moment, but that's ok! It'll work. So I'm glad I'm back to this, though it's still scary to think of spending this much moeny. But screw it, I want to move forward, and this feels like forward. Hooray! |

| Your Comments | I had an unexpected expense come up today. However, an unexpected expense isn't a big deal if you've had an unexpected increase come in the day before, right? It's just a little harder to bring my energy back up. I think I'll take a shower and get things moving, renewing my sense of well being. I'm starting to feel better already! |

Summary of Today's Visit
| Spending | $19000 - for an awesome Kentucky Derby experience for myself, carrie, my mom, dad, and brother, carrie's dad, aunt, and cousin. Well hell, why not make it really fun and invite Mark and Angela and the kids! And of course Grandma, and Diane and Denny, and any of the kids who want to come too. That's only part of the family, but the part that would enjoy it most I believe. |
|---|---|
| Desire Level | 8/10 |
| Resistance | 2/10 |
| Your Comments | It would be such an amazing experience to bring many of our family down to the derby. I don't think my family has ever seen any race live, much less imagining going to the derby, it would be awesome! And being able to pay for most of it would take away the stress that would come by going on their own. I would really love to do that for me and share that with others. |
