Routine every 5th & 20th of the month!

It's Payday!

Every 5th and 20th of the month this my daily routine, groceries.The much awaited day of all the employees, paydaaaaaay!

I'm thankful that I have now a job that may help my husband in terms of financial, to sustain or needs and wants especially my son. Working in a province is such big adjustment for me. Why? In terms of salary, from Manila rate to provincial rate but living in Manila is much higher in cost of living rather than living in province. This time though I earned just 3,000.00php for 15days that's a big amount for us but If I were earning that amount in Manila it's not enough.

I'm still grateful though we earned little, we sustain our everyday needs. The sad part is, the price hikes. For 1,000php what could we bought for it? Is it enough? Of course not, sometimes I think why there is provincial rate? Looking back, provincial rate is the main reason why I left my hometown and look for a bigger and brighter future in Manila. Yes, I've worked in good companies and earned beyond my expectation. But here I am back to my hometown again to live just a simple life.

In my grocery cart, I put first the milk and other needs of gav like biscuits, soaps then some supplies at the home like sugar, coffee, creamer, soaps and shampoos.

I know everyone is struggling to budget their salary, yung tipong nakabudget na ang sahod kahit hindi pa payday. Ang hirap maging adult, I just wanna go back to my childhood days with nothing to worry about. Let's just be grateful that life may be hard sometimes but God never let is down and always at our side.

So, that's it for today! I made an article while waiting for my turn at the atm machine and at the grocery store. 😅
