Today I went to the Comcast office and chose a cheaper cable package, trimming about $40 off my monthly bill.  I probably should have canceled it altogether, but I&#8217;m not that good or brave yet.  I need to work on myself a little more first.<\/p>\n<p>Now if I can only find a few more places to trim out $40 a month I might be able to make up the difference in my increased insurance costs.  Regardless, I feel about as responsible as I&#8217;m capable of being today.  The next step will have to wait for tomorrow.  Meanwhile, maybe I&#8217;ll drag out a bank statement and comb through it looking for bills to cut.  Would that count as a responsible adult act in and of itself, or would it just be a pre-responsibility planning activity?  I have to pace myself on this.  If I overdo it, there&#8217;s no telling when I might get back to it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A couple of days ago, I said that one thing<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1260","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-managing-me"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.writerlyhaphazardry.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1260","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.writerlyhaphazardry.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.writerlyhaphazardry.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.writerlyhaphazardry.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.writerlyhaphazardry.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1260"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/www.writerlyhaphazardry.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1260\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.writerlyhaphazardry.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1260"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.writerlyhaphazardry.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1260"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.writerlyhaphazardry.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1260"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
