Who is This Book For?
21 Days to a More Disciplined Life (or through Amazon) is for you if:
- You have trouble following through.
- You get overwhelmed by huge projects.
- You start strong, but your passion fizzles out.
- You are super-disciplined in a few areas of your life, but you have one or two pet areas that you just can’t get under control.
- You check out 10 different books on discipline and organization from the library, but return all of them late.
Why I love this book:
There are specific areas in my life (physically, spiritually, and more) that I need to focus on because I haven’t given them the extra attention they need and it is mainly due to a lack of discipline on my part. I am looking forward to implementing several of the great ideas Crystal shared in this book. She has help inspire me to get “back on track” and tackle those many goals / projects that I keep putting on the back burner for several weeks, months, and yes (although it’s embarrassing to admit) even some goals that I have been delaying for several years now.
After reading 21 Days to a More Disciplined Life I think it will help inspire you to make positive steps in the right direction as well. I know many of you will enjoy this ebook and find it to be a wonderful resource! It is a great time of year to re-evaluate our lives, goals, and priorities.
- Are you easily overwhelmed by your big ideas or projects, and you just don’t know where to start and how to make real progress?
- Do you find yourself making “all-or-nothing” plans for transforming your life, and then three days later you crash and burn under the weight of your plan?

Living on a Budget: Groceries $40 for 4
Groceries from Walmart & Ingles
It was a whirlwind of a week. Jake had to head to Charleston for some work meetings, but we are thankful to have him back home with us again. Here is my weekly update on our Groceries $40 for 4.
Walmart Groceries:
- $8.96 at Walmart for 1 bag of Great Value Splenda Sugar Substitute, 1 bag Lindt Assorted Chocolate Truffles (FREE after coupon), and 1 jar Hellman’s Mayonnaise.
Ingles Groceries:
- $38.66 at Ingles for 6 boxes Jiffy Corn Bread Mix, 2 packs McCormick Enchilada Mix, 2 packs McCormick Chicken, 2 packs McCormick Burrito Mix, 2 packs McCormick Fajitas Marinade, 2 packs McCormick Taco Seasoning, 2 packs McCormick Chili Mix, 2 packs Chili-O Seasoning, 2 packs Chicken Marinade, 2 packs Meatball Seasoning, 1 bag Laura Lynn Potato Chips, 1 bag Laura Lynn Tortilla Chips, 2 bags Laura Lynn Sandwich Bread, 2 gallons Laura Lynn 2% Milk, 1 bag Sorrento String Cheese (sale plus coupon), 1 container Chocolate Cool Whip (marked down), 2 packs Laura Lynn English Muffins, 1 bag Rhodes Dinner Rolls, 1 box Tai Pei Orange Chicken (FREE product coupon), 1 bag Broccoli Coleslaw (marked down), 1 bag mixed Vegetables (marked down), 1 bag Yellow Delicious Apples (marked down), 1 tube All World Garlic (marked down), and 1 tube All World Sweet Basil (marked down). (Everything I purchased at Ingles was either on sale or marked down or I had a free product coupon. All the produce was marked down to 99 cents as you can see from the bright green stickers.)
This week I spent $47.62 on groceries. I went over on the budget this week. I was happy to get some produce deals and stock back up on a few items we were needing to replenish in our fridge and pantry. Hopefully next week we can come under budget and October will be a better month for us!
It is my goal to give you regular updates on this budget section so you can celebrate the good weeks with me and thump me on the bad weeks!
As always you are welcomed to join the journey with me. I would love to hear your story and how you are doing too. The purpose of our family doing this it to watch our grocery spending while allowing us to feed our family, enjoy life, share with others, and yet stay on track with our budget.Living on a Budget is a series of ways our family uses a budget to help keep us accountable with our finances. Life doesn’t always go as planned. We have used some of the ideas I will be sharing for years while others are ones we are just starting to implement as we continue finding ways to be creative and have fun with what we have been given. Having a plan in place allows us the freedom to be smart with what we have been given, get more creative when it is a tight (week, month, year or a season) and when necessary live a much more simplified life. A budget helps us stay on track so we have more opportunities to enjoy the many blessings we have been given as well as share what we have with others. There is so much more to life than having all the stuff. We may not have the newest or greatest items in our house, we drive used cars, and wear hand-me-down clothing…..however, if our family is taken care of and have love for each other and others we have more than all the riches in the world.

Living on a Budget: Groceries $40 for 4
Groceries from Walmart, BiLo, & Ingles
I didn’t have my act together enough last week to post pictures of my grocery shopping trip so I made a point even though this week was crazy to squeeze it in again. When I stay on track with posting my grocery budget tends to do better too. Earlier this week my husband informed me that we no longer had any bacon in the house so I picked up a couple packs for him. 🙂 This week I mainly stocked up on some fresh produce and bacon. Here is my weekly update on our Groceries $40 for 4.
Walmart Groceries:
- $2.61 at Walmart for 1 pack of Carolina Pride Bacon
BiLo Groceries:
- $6.46 at BiLo for 1 pack Smoked Sausage, 1 pack Southern Home Bacon, and 1 container Southern Home Spread (everything purchased at BiLo was on sale this week.)
Ingles Groceries:
- $18.93 at Ingles for 1bag Laura Lynn Tortilla Corn Chips (sale), 1 bag Laura Lynn Potato Chips (sale), 1 pack Laura Lynn Hamburger Buns , 1 loaf Laura Lynn Sandwich Bread, 1.25 pounds White Grapes, 1.55 pounds Red Grapes, 1 bag Yellow Apples (5 pounds), 1 container fresh Mushrooms, 1 container Idaho Bleu Cheese, 1 container Avocado Dip, 1 container fresh Strawberries, 1 container fresh Tomatoes, and 1 bag Fresh Express Caesar Salad. (Everything I purchased at Ingles was either on sale or marked down. All the produce was marked down to 99 cents to $1.49 as you can see from the bright green stickers.)
This week I spent $28.00 on groceries. I went under on the budget this week. I am not sure how I did it but somehow I managed to spend money at three stores and end up with an even amount (that doesn’t happen very often). Hopefully that is a sign that it will be a good grocery month for us. I was happy to get some produce deals and stock back up on bacon for my hubby. Hopefully next week we can come under budget and September will be a better month for us!

Free Audio Book: “How Should Christians Vote?” by Tony Evans
For the month of October Christian Audio is offering a free download of an audio book . This month the audio book is How Should Christians Vote? by Tony Evans.
Christians are a large and influential voting block today. But as each governmental election approaches, an increasing polarity occurs within those claiming the Christian faith. This comes as a result of party-voting rather than voting according to Biblical mandates and authority. To refocus correctly, Dr. Tony Evans goes back to the basics and teaches on how God established government as a divine institution whose tasks include promoting the well-being of those within its realm and protection from evil. (information from Christian Audio)
If you have been wanting to a book to listen to throughout the day or while driving then this is a great opportunity to get a book for free when you download it from Christian Audio in October. Make sure to submit your order by October 31, 2012 to get your free audio book. Thanks Christian Audio!
