4/03/2009 Frugal Friday plans?

**DJ1972** · 04-03-2009, 07:41 AM

I am off today, yay! I plan on staying home all day and getting some cleaning done. I also need to get out the summer clothes and pack up some of the winter clothes. Will probably bake some cookies today too.
Just going to piddle around the house and see what I can get done.

I have no idea what I am doing today. I was planning on going to the gym, but went last night and since I've been sick, I think I over did it. So now, I am going to wait until tomorrow to go back!

Not too much on the schedule today. I think I will finish up laundry that I started yesterday, get the house picked up and see what else comes up that needs to be done today!

Working today and tonight I am going to TRY to get started cleaning out my closet for a garage sale DD and I are planning.
Have a great Friday!

Today is my "monday" since I work the next five days.
I have gotten DH and DS up and off to work.
I have updated Quicken, run the reports for last month and the first quarter of the year.
I set out the meat items for the next three days meals to defrost in the fridge.
Put the last load of wash in the dryer.
Updated the grocery list
Updated the checkbook (it's payday for us) and paid out bills.
Set out birthday cards for everyone to sign for the next week's b-days.
All I have to do now is:
Work
buy pencils for DS to have for ACT tomorrow
get cash out for grocery and gasoline for the next two weeks (we are going to cash only now - leaving the debit card at home)

A nice quiet day here. Just laundry to do. Maybe vacuum downstairs. Oh and I need to clean the downstairs bathroom. After school I take my dd to the SPCA where she's volunteering and pick her up an hour later.

I've already had the kids do their schoolwork, fixed breakfast/cleaned up, did the morning pet care and hung out the laundry. We'll be going to my grandmother's later for a late lunch/early supper, hanging around there for awhile, then coming home to clean litter boxes, feed the pets, sweep, vacuum, etc. It's gonna be a pretty laid back day.

Oh, how I wish that I could have a quiet Friday, but not today.
My DH is editor of a weekly newspaper and today is the day to deliver this weeks paper. So I will be hoping in and out of the car most of the morning.
After that I need to go to the elementary school with my DH or stay go to the office and answer the phones depending on who is in the office today. I also need to finish up the billing for March.
On the home front, I need to cook dinner, do laundry, go to the grocery store, plan next weeks meals, and work on the Sunday School lesson for this week.

I'm currently at work today. After I get off, I will pick up the boys and bring them home. Tidy up a little. Then, my mother wanted to take me shopping tonight (Yeah!!!). I will go out with her around 4:00 and return about 6:00 or 7:00. Have family movie night, put the kids to bed, spend some time with DH, and then go to bed myself. Next week is spring break for us. I'm SOOOOOOO happy

Today I went out to lunch with my friend and she paid for the entire meal...she's so sweet.

My husband and I normally go out every Friday but since coning back to the frugal I think that we will pass for a while on going out.
