Watch out for winter!

As Guia put it, maybe it's time we adjusted our lifestyle. Admittedly, the past couple of years have seen generous bonuses and additions to our savings, thanks to the good annual performances of the company, and as such, there have also been a few indulgences that were a celebration of this abundance.

While I am thankful that I experienced, at least once, the famed big bonus that starts with the letter L, I am also afraid that "winter" is fast approaching, and we will need extra reserves of "coal" to make sure our finances remain stable. Oh well, nothing that a good, old-fashioned belt-tightening cannot do.

Maybe this is also a reminder that not all good things last forever, and you will do better to appreciate them and remember always to save for a rainy day (or a wintery one, in keeping with my blog post theme)...
