It's over! I have to be honest and say I didn't stay on the challenge 100%. Had a family birthday dinner Friday night to go to and several work things. However, for my cheating, I still am so aware of the challenges and can only begin to imagine what the low income families face day in and day out. I went to WM yesterday to get food for the food drive and for a dinner I'm making for an ill associate. I surely did look at the groceries differently, still checked the prices and had to stop myself from purchasing a whole cartload of groceries for the food drive. I did buy extra, more expensive items for the foodbank, knowing that these things would never be on the $25 weekly budget. I stopped myself from buying things for me with a simple, "I don't need that." Remember, we can't fix the world or even all of our county, but as said, you can't help everyone but you can help those who cross your path.
