    Question Frugal Friday 12/4

    How can it be 1:10 pm and no one has posted yet???I just got up (worked overnight last night) to an email inbox full of real estate stuff.
    Looks like we've finally sold our home after 13 months on the market- now we need to find a new one (I got so discouraged last spring, I quit looking)
    Kids have swim practice later , and I plan to take a load of boxed up stuff over to DD#1s house in Indy for storage.
    Need a shower (badly )
    Run to the bank and pay some bills
    Just frantic, random activity it seems today - I hate days like that!!

    What is this forum for? How does it work? (well, duh, other than posting stuff!?!?)

    What do we declare on here? The many millions we have saved this day?

    You know how to make a new thread, right???

    This is just kind of what you have planned for the day - although it sometimes degenerates into discussions on totally unrealted topics.

    Really, it's just where I organize my thoughts about my daily to do list! (and gripe about not getting enough sleep )

    Woke up and went to get bloodwork done. Then went to the museum and the bank. Purchased a 54 cent cookie. Later on will be going to a small festival. The cost is a can of veggies for their food drive.

    No bad. Just a cookie, can of veggies and bus fair.

    I am home today. I love not having to work on Fridays.
    I have very little planned for today.
    I plan on working on Christmas cards, baking some cookies, and maybe knitting.
    I am going to a Christmas ornament exchange this evening at church. It should be fun.

    It's a beautiful day today! I got the best sleep I have gotten in a long time last night. Like eight hours straight without waking up once. It's a miracle.

    So I took out all my wonderful energy so far deep cleaning the house. You know sucking stuff out of corners and moving furniture. Found a few things too. There is still more cleaning I plan on doing.

    Today was pay day so I balanced everything out and paid bills and myself!

    Not much going on tonight. DH has to work late. Gah retail and Christmas time!

    I usually don't post until the end of the day, so I get to read what everyone else has done and post what I have done that day. If I've had a productive day, then I get a BIG sense of satisfaction!

    Hi everyone. I did my 8 hours at work, came straight home, fixed dinner, got snacks ready for DH to take with him on truck, got the trash ready so DH could take it out as he left for work. I still need to do dishes, and fold clothes from last night. I plan to get some more reading in and then say good night. But first I have lots of posting to do.
