Hows my week?

September 16, 2022

Its been a tough week for our family, because after the wedding that happened, tho we did not spent much from the event still we run out of budget.

Why?

My partner only report for work 3 and half day because one day is they dont have materials to be used, then before the wedding he file for half day to help in the event(especially chopping the meats and cooking) then during the wedding day he did not report for work, of course to help too at the place so in the end his salary is ₱1400 only and less her utang sa tindahan, he summed up hodling ₱500 only.

For todays inflation rates your ₱500 pesos could only last for a day or two, depending on how you will divide it per day right? Since we dont have our stock rice to cook so its another expenses.

When I knew thay he have only ₱500 left from his salary I get mad because how we will survive the week, and lil girls milk is empty too., I told him to hold his salry and let her do the budgeting coz I dont know how to do it for a week.

Sunday afternoon, she went to his siblings house and coming back home he bring rice about how many kilos I think, so we are save from that, then the daily viand is our problem and Adrielles milk, monday morning Adrielles milk consumed, then he bought fish for our viand good for lunch and dinner, then later in the afternoon he brought milk for about ₱235, so I dont know how much is his money on hand.

Everyday he brought something to cook for our lunch and dinner since he is the one doing the budgeting, I dont know where he gets the money to used for our budget coz I did not ask anymore, besides he will be the one to pay for it since he is the one working.

For todays viand, I initiate to used my own money from my e-loading since I know he did everything to feed us for the past few days and I think he deserve a break too, for thinking what to buy.

Maybe you'll think I'm to harsh with my partner, no I am not, all I want to do is let him realize how to value his hard earned money because he dont know that word, his hard earned money was spent with lottery(huweteng) and ndi naman sya tumatama or tumama man lugi pa sa naubos nyang taya.

Imagine for a week he gave me only ₱1000 then ₱1400 is for him and yet before the week end he is getting from the money he gave me diba ang lakas tumaya, that is the reason sometimes why we got misunderstanding, I know some people said don't fight about money kasi pera lng yan, but if you get hungry diba pera din naman ang solusyon dun.

He is not fighting naman with me about it tahimik lng sya, and I am just always reminding him naman to minimize the money.

But to wrap this article, I am thankful and blessed because we survived the whole week ng hindi gutom at dilat ang mata:) still God helps us and my partner to have some part time income inorder to feed us.
