I can't believe it is only Tuesday! Monday was CRAZY and felt like it should have been a whole week! Now I get to try to play catch up all week and then I have to work on Saturday! YUCK!

On a better note.....we only spent $85 total this weekend from our trip to Walmart and the grocery store! Wow! That was a good week! That makes $65 under the $150 we usually spend! Using some of the stocked up items we bought a couple of weeks ago. I will make that deposit this week into the tax/insurance account. Yippee!!!

Hoping today is a better day!

I wish that I could just stop in the middle of the road and ask the person riding my tail where in the world they are going?? It must be somewhere wonderful to be in that much of a hurry! And then I would tell them to leave 5 minutes earlier so they can slow down!!! It just amazes me how much people rush around and hate to have to wait for anything. I think we all need to just take a breath and relax every so often so we don't miss life as it is happening around us.

On a better note, my husband is in school for physical therapy asst and they finally got to massage! I will enjoy being the patient for the next couple of weeks!

Well, I didn't do such a great job this weekend. We ended up spending $170 total this weekend but $30 of that was ink cartridges for the printer, so I don't feel too bad about it. Also did a bit of stocking up on frozen veggies and nuts thanks to BOGOs at Publix!

On a completely different note we spent most of the day outside yesterday. Well, all weekend really. It was so beautiful here. We put up a new birdhouse that was given to us and made by our neighbor and it took the blue birds all of an hour to find it and make it thier new home!

Supposed to be stormy here by the end of the day so it should be a busy morning at work! Boy I hate Monday morning, it's such a bummer especially after such a nice weekend!

First off let me say our trip to the grocery store was much better this week. We spent $114.00 total and $12.00 off that was for charcoal and lighter fluid for grilling. So I was pretty happy about that....extra $ to save for taxes/insurance!
Not only did we not spend as much money at the grocery store I saved on electricity. It was absolutely beautiful here this weekend so I was able to hang out the clothes and sheets. I love drying the sheets outside. And of course have had the windows open so no heat or air!! Our electric bills have been so high this winter so I am happy about that! We have also spent a lot of time outside in the yard which is when we are the happiest.
Now to prepare for the upcoming week by ironing my work clothes......*sigh*

Well so much for sleeping in.....I am exhausted all week and so ready to sleep in and what happens??? Bright and early (5am) wide awake! Oh well, will give me more time to enjoy this beautiful weather! I am so glad that it is warming up, ready to get out in the yard and do some yard work and get the garden ready for planting.
I am hoping for a better report for our trip to the grocery store this week. As for saving, we got our tax return (federal)this week and I added that to our already saved money. We got a nice return due to our medical and my DH only working 7 months.....next year will be another story. Saving the return this year for the possible payment next year!
