Princess Shelby's Luxuries

In my family my grandpa calls me the Princess this isn't because I act like a princess or am prissy or anything, its just a family joke because I usually get the luxuries I want. I'm not spoiled or rich. I don't like to flaunt things or show off. I am not given everything I want. I got my first job when I turned fourteen, and I have worked ever since. When I started my more stable job at the age of sixteen I begin paying more and more bills and buying myself more things.
I recently bought two horses but before I did that I went through my finances to make sure I would be able to afford these luxuries along with my other expenses. When I was doing this I wasn't accounting for my transmission in my truck to go out. which was an additional expense. I had accounted for receiving my truck and horse trailer registration and I had the money saved up for that and enough feed for all of my animals to get me through 3 months.
At one point I was finally relieved and feeling really financially stable, then made a leap to purchase a horse. And less then a day later I had a huge expense coming out of my pocket. You never know when something is going to go wrong and I've learned that when something does go wrong you just have to make the best of it. I don't regret buying the horses because they make me happy and give me a much better appreciation for the luxuries in life!
