**Happy Friday!**

Confession: I’ve been pretty disciplined with my spending recently, but I’m thinking this long weekend deserves a small exception. 😄

For me, budgeting isn’t about never spending; it’s about spending intentionally.

**Are you planning to stick to your budget this long weekend, or are you treating yourself a little?**

I believe in putting into my budget a little fun money. And I intentionally use all of it. No guilt and the rest of my budget remains intact. So, yes, this weekend will be the BBQ Ribfest - enjoyed with my fun money … 🙂
