THINGS I'VE LEARNED SINCE MOVING OUT

i rent out the studio apartment above the garage. beautiful home and beautiful family who owns it!

rent is due every month, you have to pay it. 

groceries don’t just reappear.

spring cleaning should happen more than once a year. 

make your bed up each morning it won’t kill you. 

find family around you. 

don’t oversleep. 

don’t stay out all night every night. 

take trips. 

you actually do need an iron. 

invest in movies.

don’t buy cable. 

make a budget and actually stick to it. 

dishwashers are a good thing. 

take time to be alone, time to regroup. 

take time to be with your closest friends. 

take time to breathe. 

you don’t need to buy a latte everyday, your coffee maker will suffice. 

never own more things than can fit in your car. 

go out in nature at least once a week, appreciate it. your office will be there tomorrow. 

eating out all the time is both unhealthy and harsh on your budget. so stop. 

you can never have too much toilet paper or paper towels.  

these are just a few things, i know that i'll continue learning and i'll be sure to share it with you.
