Dearest Poppet,
We’ve been a sick household for about a week and we hope that you and yours are staying healthy! It is the time of year to be sick but we are grateful for that we are still ok, can still work, and are still alive (well, except me being a doll doesn’t have to worry about the latter 🙂 ).
Now is the time where we must hold back, especially financially. Hold back on impulse shopping (a trick that my human does is to wait 24 hours and see if you still want it – works 9/10) focus on saving money and conserving your financial resources for now. Don’t run the risk of spending something you might need later, especially if times get a bit challenging.
Holding back seems like a terrible thing but we’ve been fine living this way – because it forces us to focus on what really matters, what really brings happiness.
With love,
Irene la poupée
