 I'm trying to be better about it, but I just don't want to know. I never overdraft, I just call and check my balance when I'm unsure. But it's sad that I don't always know where my money is going. I think it leads to frivolous spending. 2 YEARS???  You scare me!!!
Seriously, how do you sleep? 
    I never met you, but I LOVE you & I will forever!! Thank you for being YOU - my little Princey, the best to EVER do it | |

Very well, thanks. 
Nah, if I think I'm doing poorly, I just call and check. I'll occasionally write things down if I'm trying to budget for a large purchase or save for something, but that's about it. I used to be quite anal about it all, checking my balance nightly to make sure I'd written everything down correctly and such, but along the way I decided I didn't want to be quite so strict about things and relaxed a bit. Now I've gone a bit too far, though, so I've got to reign myself back in. |

I know I'm outdated & believe me the amount of paper in my house makes me fucking NUTS!!!  But I ain't ready to let it go yet  I like knowing that I can look in my purse & know what's happening instead of having to log on somewhere...
I still pay most of my bills with paper checks 
Matt, you'll be glad to know I ALWAYS use my debit card in stores  I still write a lot of checks, even at the market. 
And my checkbook is always balanced.  | |
