It's ironic that I was writing about that in my journal today. I find it frustrating and boring having to do the little every day things. I get a much bigger rush out of saving a large amount- like yesterday I shaved $60 off my homeowner's insurance policy. That's way more fun than doing the menial things even though the menial every day tasks save far more over the long term. I wish I had a good way of tracking those savings as a means of staying motivated.
